Bio-Balance Health was initiated by two Australians in 1998 following their visit to Health Research Institute - Pfeiffer Treatment Center in the USA and discussions there with Dr William Walsh, founder and Scientific Director of HRI-PTC. They were so impressed with the work being done there in treating patients with mental and behavioural disorders and the outcomes being achieved that they resolved to take action to make Pfeiffer assessment and treatment techniques available in Australia.
Following their return to Australia, they joined with a number of like-minded people to set up Bio-Balance Health Association Inc. The association is a not-for-profit community organization dedicated to the task of making Pfeiffer assessment and treatment techniques readily available in Australia, disseminating information about these techniques and supporting further research and development in the fields of biochemical assessment and treatment of mental, behavioural and autistic disorders.
After considerable preliminary work to ensure access to the required assessment facilities, Bio-Balance’s efforts resulted in Dr. William Walsh visiting Australia in 2004 to train an Australian medical practitioner and to address public and practitioner meetings in Sydney, Brisbane and on the Gold Coast. The success of this visit led to Dr Walsh returning to Sydney along with other members of the Pfeiffer treatment team in 2005 and again in 2006 to conduct Outreach Clinics, to train several more Australian and New Zealand medical practitioners and address Conferences.
Bio-Balance Health continues to provide greater access for Australian families to Pfeiffer treatment, in conjunction with other like-minded community groups.
