Under what conditions can a Brain Balance franchisee deliver aspects of the Brain Balance program outside of their center?

According to the 2025 Brain Balance Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees may not deliver any aspects of the Brain Balance program at a location outside of their center unless they have written approval from Brain Balance. This restriction ensures that the Brain Balance program is delivered in a standardized and controlled environment, maintaining quality and consistency.

This requirement has significant implications for franchisees. It limits their flexibility in offering services at alternative locations, such as schools, community centers, or clients' homes, without explicit permission. Obtaining written approval may involve a formal request process, potential delays, and the possibility of denial if the proposed location does not meet Brain Balance's standards.

However, Brain Balance may approve a franchisee to operate a satellite center if they have owned and operated a Brain Balance center for at least one year. The satellite location must be within the franchisee's existing market and can only deliver programming. It cannot handle lead intake, assessment of prospective families, post-program assessments, or administrative functions. This offers a limited opportunity to expand services within a defined market under specific conditions.
