Melillo Method Podcast: (1hr 31mins)
Synchronicity: How does our brain use the concept of timing to coordinate its neural networks?
How often do we use the expression “timing is everything”? In the human brain it literally is! Dr. Melillo, co-host Dr. Scire and CEO of Interactive Metronome Matt Wukasch discuss how a computerized metronome device can help re-establish abnormal timing within the brain networks that oversee executive functions, attention, speech, sensory and motor functions and much more.

In a nutshell...
Interactive Metronome ® (IM)
This type of training has shown immense potential in enhancing children's academic performance and addressing specific learning challenges like dyslexia and ADHD.
For children with ADHD, metronome training offers a structured approach to strengthening attention spans and impulse control. The training helps regulate the brain's internal clock, which is crucial for maintaining focus and filtering out distractions. This regulation enhances executive functions, which are responsible for planning, organizing and executing tasks.
Improved executive functions enable children to manage their academic workload more effectively, leading to better academic outcomes.
Research has shown that metronome training can significantly
enhance cognitive speed and memory.
By enhancing timing and synchronization in the brain, this training provides a valuable tool for improving academic performance and overcoming difficulties associated with dyslexia, ADHD, and executive function deficits.
The structured and feedback-driven nature of the training ensures that children can develop essential cognitive skills, ultimately supporting their academic growth and success.
