What is IM?
The Interactive Metronome (IM) is a patented technology program shown to improve attention, coordination and timing in children and adults with a wide range of cognitive and physical difficulties including Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

How does IM work?
IM trains the brain to plan, sequence and process information more effectively through repetition of precise activities. The program typically involves 15 one-hour sessions over a 3 to 5 week period.  A series of hand and foot exercises are performed while IM's patented auditory guidance system progressively challenges individuals to improve their accuracy as they actively attempt to match the computer generated beat.  The difference between the individual's response and the reference beat is measured in milliseconds and a score is provided.

General Benefits:

• Focus & Attention
• Control of Aggression & Impulsivity  
• Coordination
• Language Processing
• Academic Performance

How IM works for athletes
Similar to exercising a muscle group, the IM-Powered program trains the brain to strengthen mind/muscle connections.  Auditory guide sounds and interactive exercises help athletes progressively improve their timing, focus and mental processing speed.  This patented program also allows athletes to track their individual performance through a scoring system.  Athletes of all levels are using the IM-Powered program to gain the mental advantage needed for today's competitive sports.

IM benefits a variety of other problems

Motor planning and sequencing problems have been linked to various developmental, behavioral, and learning challenges.  Individuals who experience difficulties with motor planning, sequencing and timing may include those with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Autism, speech and language delays, motor and sensory disorders, and a range of other conditions. 

Benefits for athletes

• Improved Rhythm & Timing
• Increased Mental Processing Speed
• Sharpened Concentration & Focus
• Enhanced Overall Execution
