Works to bring the most delayed side of the
brain up to the functional level of the other
side of the brain
Once the sides are functioning equally, both
hemispheres can communicate and develop
together
Without this therapy, over time the effects of
the imbalance become more pronounced

Autism is a right brain delay
Right brain delays manifest themselves in
various forms:
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
Severe and High Functioning Autism
Asperger’s Syndrome
Sensory Processing / Integration Disorder
Tourette’s Syndrome
Dyslexia
ADHD
OCD, etc.
4
The therapy usually results
in a rapid recovery in steps
or stages
Severe Autism
High Functioning Autism
Asperger’s Syndrome
Sensory Processing Disorder
Tourette’s
The patient must move
through each step (without
skipping any) on the road to
recovery
Dyslexia
ADHD
OCD

Stroke patients
Parkinson’s patients
Traumatic brain injury patients
Alzheimer’s patients
◦ Some of these patients can end up with their
Primitive/Infantile Reflexes again
◦ Having them do the exercises to inhibit the
reflexes, along with their therapies to heal the weak
parts of their brains can be helpful

Founders: Dr. Robert Melillo and William
Fowler
Each location has a nutritionist on staff and a
corporate nutritionist
One compounding company for all locations
who designs a child specific supplemental
program
Nutrition side is similar to the DAN! Protocol,
but does not test for a few other possibly
necessary items

Borrelia Burgdorferi and co-infections
Toxic secretions from bacteria makes Lyme
patients sick
Chronic Lyme is not usually cured but can be
forced to go into dormancy after killing off
many spirochetes


Fibromyalgia
◦ Inability to flush out phosphates
◦ Guaifenesin helps with pain from phosphates
tremendously AND eases seasonal allergy reactions,
if already on it when the time comes
◦ Mucinex or Maximum Strength Mucinex (12 hour
dose), which has ONLY Guaifenesin in it
◦ Prescription Guaifenesin has no dyes

We are in the process of implementing the
Lyme protocol and other items to balance out
a few remaining metabolic issues
We are waiting and working through his
remaining frontal lobe delays, which are
among the last parts of the brain to develop
◦ The remaining issues are very, very small now and
barely noticable.
13

Our plan of action for Jacob, plus treatment
of possible Lyme and co-infections,
demonstrates a complete picture of what can
bring full or partial recovery to patients on
the Autism spectrum or those with left brain
delays
◦ With other patients there may be a few lingering
issues that require additional therapies, whether
traditional or alternative medicine

Autism clinics need to include nutrition into their overall
programs and incorporate all the sensory, OT, PT, academics,
timing and rhythm with the Interactive Metronome, etc. into a
one hour session three times a week – Reflex exercises should
be done separately, 3x day, 7 days per week, and can be done
outside the clinic
Convince Pediatricians to test Glutathione levels prior to
immunizing
◦ Convince them to use a slower immunization schedule and not start until child
is older




No shots for newborns in hospitals
No flu shots, period! Especially if Glutathione level is low
Interactive Metronome is key
Help Brain Balance to incorporate the treatment of Lyme and
detox of metals and yeast with Dr. Klinghardt’s method


Do mothers of children on the Autism Spectrum,
(or other developmental delays), who have
Fibromyalgia, also have Lyme and metal toxicity?
Do these mothers have Spasmodic Dysphonia or
Spasmodic Dystonia?
Do these mothers have Osteoporosis in their family
or MS? (and Fibromyalgia with it)
Can we test a panel of mothers to prove a
connection?

Phenols
Night Terrors and Frontal Lobe Seizures

Headaches resulting in
head banging
Anger/violence
Itching



This needs to be one of the first issues to
address
Take phenolic enzyme ten minutes prior to
consumption
Lower the overall phenol intake
No high phenol foods at dinner or later
Cut back on fruit juice intake
Enzyme may not help with apple juice or
grapes
21
These are signs of an immature brain
 The brain matures through

 Continued work to develop hemispheric
equilibrium
 Natural brain development with age
22


If killing yeast, make sure there is a good
plan in place for detox of die-off
Killing yeast at the same time as giving
higher oxalate foods can cause issues with
oxalates
◦ A few of the reactions can be foot pain, mutism,
constant hunger, sleep disturbances, anger and
misbehavior
23

Right brain delay
◦ Recreational activities and schooling should mostly
be geared toward right brain learning

Left brain delay
◦ Recreational activities and schooling should mostly
be geared toward left brain learning
24
Can you help me spread the word?
Can we work to open more Brain
Balance Achievement Centers for
children and a Hemispheric
Integration Therapy clinic for adults?
Can we find someone to do the test
panel to prove theories?
