Retraining the brain with
Interactive Metronome
Interactive Metronome (IM) is a therapeutic assessment and training program that improves attention, concentration, motor planning and sequencing. Improvements in these areas result in stronger motor control and coordination, enhanced balance and gait, and improved language and cognition.
IM works on the body and mind simultaneously in a motivating and engaging way while addressing critical timing skills that underlie all of our capabilities (i.e., speech, language, attention, memory/learning, reading, motor skills, self-control,etc).
As timing in the brain becomes more synchronous through IM training, the brain's efficiency and performance also improves. This leads to gains in focus, cognitive speed, language processing, reading achievement, and motor skills (coordination, gait, balance).
3-4 one hour sessions a week for apprx 12 sessions. It's simple, hard, exhausting, fun but most of all it works and it lasts! No retraining.
Why IM is good for Memory Issues
One of the most important IM training outcomes (but not the only outcome) is improved focus via increased efficiency of the attentional control system (ACS) that maintains goal related information active in working memory in the presence of internal (mind wandering) and external distractions. Improvement in efficiency of executive functions and working memory results in more efficient complex cognitive processing and learning.

This is accomplished by addressing underlying deficits in timing & rhythm to improve neural efficiency.
Clinical Studies have shown significant improvements in cognitive and physical skills including:
• Attention • Coordination & Balance • Language Processing • Reading & Math Fluency• Sensory Integration • Control of Impulsivity/Aggression
Today, there are more than 30,000 certified IM providers in over 5,000 clinics, hospitals and universities worldwide. In addition to a wealth of published research, IM has received an abundance of media attention including the CBS Early Show, CNN News, US News and World Report, as well as various segments that have aired on hundreds of TV affiliates, radio stations and national publications.
IM is used to improve:
