In the past, the brain was considered static, unchangeable, hard-wired, much like a computer. Although major changes occurred during childhood, the belief was that these became minor and insignificant in adulthood. Today, we know this thinking to be false! Through much scientific research, we now know that our brains are capable of huge transformations and that our brains react to our environment, our thinking, our actions etc. Through a process called neuroplasticity, the brain\u2019s ability to reorganize itself by forming new nerve cell connections throughout life, we can retrain our brains to adapt to new challenges and realities. At the Cumming\u2019s Centre, the adapted training programs are informed by this research through the principles of repetition, intensity, intention, and specificity.<\/p>\n
