Albert Einstein did not speak until he was around age seven and did poorly academically all the way through college. When he failed to get into graduate school at the age of twenty, he became a clerk in the Swiss Patent Office. But he did not give up his cerebral pursuits. Just six years later he published the first draft of his scientific Theory of Relativity, which won him the Nobel Prize ten years later.
When Einstein’s brain was examined after he died in 1955, it appeared basically the same as everyone else’s. It was roughly the same size and shape as most brains and had the average number of brain cells. One scientist, however, discovered something uniquely different about Einstein’s brain: It possessed an enormous number of connections, or synapses, between brain cells. While at one time this could have been credited to good genes, we can now see that a great deal of Einstein’s genius was the result of the unique way he used his brain.
The same intellectual growth can happen to your child. The Melillo Method combines physical exercise and mental exercise with sensory stimulation to get the left and right sides of the brain to reconnect, strengthen, and grow new connections. When this happens, the behavior problems created by the brain imbalance and the nutritional problems that contributed to the problem start to disappear.
