I researched it pretty heavily at one point
Had a son struggling and were looking for a way to help him.

In the end we decided not to pursue it.

My opinion based on my research is this:

They are a well-meaning organization that genuinely believes they have solutions that will help. However, there is no scientific data to back up their claims. When you go in they will discuss the value of finding a brain balance and building the parts of the brain that aren't "in-balance" yet you won't find any papers which back up this approach.

It's expensive, and feels a little too slick saleswise to me. They have their pitch down pat, and it sounds good, especially to a parent trying to help their children.

I also believe it genuinely has helped some children. My thought is that there are some kids who will simply benefit from brain engagement activities. For whatever reason they haven't gotten engaged to this extent before, and the attention and stimulus do them some good.

We concluded there might be cheaper options to achieve the benefits.
