The Balanced System® framework, developed over 15 years, was devised to provide a practical, holistic solution to the challenge of meeting the needs of children and young people with speech, language and communication needs (SLCN). The framework has been extended for use across other therapeutic areas including Occupational Therapy and Physiotherapy.
