The Complete Brain System
Athletes and trainers focus on training the muscles of the body for optimal performance, but too often overlook the most important aspect of performance and recovery...the BRAIN.
The Athlete's Brain Complete Brain System is based on Synergy as defined as the creation of a whole that is greater than the simple sum of its parts. The term synergy comes from the Greek word συνεργία synergia from synergos, συνεργός, meaning "working together".
AB is founded in the belief of the correlation or concourse of action between different organs and systems in health. AB's solutions are based on the cooperative action of two or more treatments, products or services resulting in a different or greater response than that of a singular application.
The Athlete's Brain multi-modal approach will produce an overall better result than any individual product, treatment or service.

Health is best managed through a multi-modal approach - trying different treatments in conjunction with one another!
Our alternative synergistic approach is in contrast with the traditional serial approach. For example, “Try A… if A doesn’t work try B and so on, which is the linear traditional approach.”

- Different types of treatment/training methods all have varying degrees of effectiveness depending on the individual.
- Athlete’s Brain combines different modalities resulting in a synergistic effect thereby enhancing outcomes.
- Assessment and adjustment is a critical component of Athlete’s Brain.

The brain
The brain is a complex organ that is enclosed inside the skull. It controls everything that happens in the body, including vital functions like breathing and heartbeat. Without the brain, the body would not be able to function.
The brain is very delicate and is well protected by the skull. It is surrounded by a fluid called cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The main functions of CSF are to protect the brain (it acts as a shock absorber), to carry nutrients to the brain and remove waste from it.

The frontal lobe governs our personality, character and behaviour. It is where we control our body movement and how we express ourselves. This part of the brain allows us to speak. It is also where we solve problems and do most of our learning. It allows us to organise and plan.
The occipital lobe receives messages from the eyes and recognizes shapes, colors and objects. This bit of the brain allows you to tell the difference between a square and a triangle. It also controls your eye movements.
The parietal lobe gives you a sense of 'me'. It figures out the messages you receive from the five senses of sight, touch, smell, hearing and taste. This part of the brain tells you what is part of the body and what is part of the outside world.
You have two temporal lobes, one behind each ear. They receive messages from the ears so that you can recognize sound and messages. This part of the brain also recognizes speech and is how you understand what someone says to you. It also helps your sense of smell. Your short term memory is also kept here.
The cerebellum sits at the back of the brain and controls your sense of balance. This allows you to stand up, walk in a straight line, and know if you are standing up or sitting down.
The brain stem controls your lungs and heart and blood pressure. It sits at the top of the spine and receives messages from the rest of the body. In some ways this is the most important part of the brain because it keeps you alive. Hurting this part of the brain is very serious.
The ventricles make the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) that protect and cushion the brain and spinal cord. CSF also helps to keep the brain healthy and working properly.
There are lots of interesting things that go on in the very middle of the brain, which is made of smaller parts known as the limbic system. The hypothalamus and pituitary gland control things like your body temperature, how fast you grow and tells you when you are thirsty.
