Exploring Life & Business with Dr. Candace Holmes of BrainCore of Duluth

Today we’d like to introduce you to Dr. Candace Holmes.

Hi Dr. Holmes, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
My oldest daughter was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of seven. My youngest daughter is gifted and accelerated. I literally have yin and yang with respect to my children. One day, I was reading one of my chiropractic magazines and came across an article that piqued my interest. It spoke of a drug-free, non-invasive therapy that had lasting results (up to thirty years) and no side effects and worked well for those who had ADHD, autism/Aspergers, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and more. I HAD to get more information. I called and discovered that BrainCore Systems is co-founded by one of my former chiropractic professors who was looking for a drug-free solution for his nephew who has autism. I became certified and purchased the therapy system for my daughter who was struggling in school, was socially awkward, lacked focus and attention, and was taking at least five hours every night to complete her homework. After BrainCore Therapy, she is now the most focused in class according to her teachers….so much so that she keeps her peers on task. She took Honors Physics last year and earned an “A.” She tried out for the step team and the softball team at her high school and made both. She’s a social butterfly! Now, it only takes her from two and a half to three hours a night to complete her homework and I don’t have to help her hardly at all anymore. She’s had a total transformation so much so that her grandmother called me and said, “Well, she’s just blossomed into herself, hasn’t she?!” I said, “Yes! Thank You, God and thank you, BrainCore Neurofeedback!” I have been on a mission ever since to educate others about the lasting benefits of this therapy and to let others know that they don’t have to rely on drugs to help. Other natural, drug-free options are available!

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
No! It most definitely has not been a smooth road. The therapy that I provide has been around for over fifty years; yet, not many people have heard of it. The challenge has been educating the public about a lesser-known, effective therapy for both children and adults. Another challenge is making the public aware that this therapy is also used for peak brain performance. In fact, there are many professional athletes who swear by it as it helps them stay mentally sharp.

Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I have been practicing BrainCore Neurofeedback Therapy for five years. I added it to my chiropractic practice. I have been so inspired by the wonderful transformations that my patients have experienced from this therapy that it is now the bulk of my practice. I am a Natural Brain Focus & Attention Specialist. Most of my patients have sought to work with me to help them or their children with symptoms from ADHD, autism/Aspergers, anxiety, depression, PTSD, migraines, insomnia, and more. As a divorced, single parent of a child with ADHD, I fully understand the struggles and challenges that arise from trying to help your child the best way that you can. Been there. Done that. It’s not easy.

I am the president of the Alpharetta, GA chapter of the American Business Women’s Association-Empowered Ladies Express Network (ABWA-ELEN). I am a two-time surrogate. I am almost finished writing my first book about those journeys. I am also a member of the 1818 Club and the Buckhead Club.

I am most proud of being found through word-of-mouth referrals and Google. I have programs available for those located outside of the state of Georgia. So, I love that I am able to help my patients on a national level. I offer complimentary Discovery Calls to discuss if the potential patient is a candidate for BrainCore Therapy.

Do you have any advice for those just starting out?
My advice for those who are just starting out is to find themselves a stellar business coach and/or mentor. Why make more mistakes and/or waste your precious resources on those items that are unnecessary? Take advice from those who are where you want to be. It will save you in the long run!
