About Us

A uniquely holistic, evidence-based, and workday-ready approach that integrates Eastern wisdom with Western science—so your people can sleep better, stress less, think clearer, and feel stronger, in minutes a day.

🌿 Alternative Medicine, Scientifically Applied

Unlike generic wellness apps, our platform implements a computer-based multimodal mind–body approach (cbMMBA). Each session combines mind–body exercise (Baduanjin), self-acupressure (including auricular vagus-nerve stimulation), breathwork, and guided imagery—in short, accessible sessions that fit daily life. One compact routine engages the physical, cognitive, and emotional systems together.

🔬 Multi-Purpose Benefits

Our programs deliver measurable improvements in stress regulation, sleep quality, pain relief, and cognitive performance/mental clarity and help restore steady energy. Beyond these core outcomes, the same routine supports whole-body wellness, including cardiovascular, immune and digestive health.

We adapt content for students (focus, resilience), employees (productivity, stress balance, sleep), and older adults—including those with MCI (vitality, mobility, cognitive support). Formats include seated or standing practice, large-type UI, and optional caregiver tips.

👥 Tailored Across the Lifespan
⚙️ Convenience & Accessibility

Designed to meet people where they are: 10–20 minute guided sessions, no equipment; 5–10 minute desk-side micro-breaks for focus, headache, and neck/shoulder relief; and optional 45-minute monthly classes for company-wide wellness days. Launch home-first or onsite; integrate easily with SSO/SAML.

🏛️ Evidence Supported & Measurement-Driven

Our work is grounded in science and built for scale. Program developments are supported by clinical studies conducted at Massachusetts General Hospital. Founded by Dr. Jian Kong, Professor at MGH and Harvard Medical School, BrainThrive pairs complementary medicine with rigorous, measurement-based practice to produce real-world outcomes.

🛡️ Excellent Safety Profile

Non-pharmacologic and low-risk by design. Baduanjin is a gentle, moderate-intensity practice with a favorable safety record; self-acupressure is generally well tolerated. Users gain benefits without medication side-effects.
