About NeuroSync Academy
Welcome to NeuroSync Academy — where science meets soul, and nervous system regulation becomes more than theory… it becomes transformation.
Founded by Corinne Badenhorst, an Occupational Therapist with over 24 years of clinical experience, NeuroSync Academy was born from a deep, relentless passion to understand why people suffer, how we truly heal, and what it takes to stay regulated and whole in a system that often fragments us.

Corinne Badenhorst
Occupational Therapist
Corinne Badenhorst is an Occupational Therapist, course creator, and founder of NeuroSync Academy — a space where science, soul, and clinical practice meet.
With more than 24 years in the field, group-therapy, program development and her own personal journey - Corinne’s work is shaped by a deep passion for understanding the nervous system, integrating trauma-informed science, and translating complex theory into tools that actually work — in therapy rooms, hospital wards, and everyday life.
Her journey has led her through advanced training in psychoneuroimmunology, HeartMath, polyvagal theory, and somatic regulation, all of which now form the foundation of the CPD-accredited programs she teaches across South Africa and beyond.
At her core, Corinne believes that healing begins with regulation — and that restoring the people who hold space for others is one of the most powerful ways to change the system from within.
