Summary
In many cases, Brain Gym® improves a relatively simple individual performance and by doing so obtains a favorable long-term adaptive and behavioral effect. The emerging functional link between physical exercises, neuronal plasticity and cognitive functions may provide a mechanistic explanation for the achievements of Brain Gym®.
Apparently, a lot remains to be explored about the relationship between application of Brain Gym® and enhanced brain function. Further understanding of the mechanism by which Brain Gym® exercises and visualization combine to promote brain activity that is imprinted in the brain and achieves a long-term effect will undoubtedly advance the widespread employment of this successful yet, still empirical method.
