Does my child have a brain imbalance?

SUPPORTING HEALTHY BRAIN DEVELOPEMENT

At Brainshape, we help children move from overwhelm to ease by strengthening under-developed brain networks, so learning, behaviour, movement and mood can click into gear. We take a whole-child approach ensuring brain, body and nervous system can wire together.

  • Smart neuro-developmental testing shows us what’s under-matured.

  • That blends movement, sensory, and brain-based therapies using fun short targeted activities

  • Use world-class tools & technology (yep, the fancy stuff), gentle non-invasive tools that give us objective results & superior care: QEEG & Photobiomodulation ( PBM) Our iSyncMe QEEG & PBM helmet and Neurosolution lasers help us map and activate the brain

  • Clear steps, calm guidance, measurable wins.

Dr Robert Melillo & The Melillo Method

WHAT IS MELLILO METHOD?

The Melillo Method is a whole-child approach developed by Dr Robert Melillo to support children with developmental and neurological challenges. Grounded in functional neurology, it uses targeted sensory-motor activities, cognitive exercises, and personalised lifestyle strategies to strengthen underdeveloped brain pathways. The goal is improved brain balance, which may support learning, behaviour, and emotional regulation.

THE BRAINSHAPE PATHWAY

Our programs draw on the Science of NEUROPPLASTICITY - the brain’s ability to adapt, change, and form new connections. This relies on adequate Intensity, duration & Frequency of specialised stimulation for change. 

 Helping your child’s brain develop and heal—step by step.

Build Energy

We calm the nervous system and support the brain’s energy needs so change is possible. Think PBM (red/near-infrared light), vagal-tone support, specific & gentle movement, and easy home foundations.

Integrate Sensory Input
(organise + align)

We help the brain process what it sees, hears and feels—better. Vestibular activities, visual and auditory stimulation, primitive reflex integration, posture, core and balance training.

Reshape & Strengthen Connections

We target specific networks and hemispheres to improve timing, coordination and communication—using rhythm/timing practice, task-specific exercises, digital neuro-therapy, and progressive home exercises.

OUR PREMIUM TECHNOLOGY

Tools, Technology & Therapies

These tools are unique, cuting edge and state of the art—and we use them because they help us deliver precise, effective, sustainable & significant results.

    • QEEG brain mapping: Records brainwave patterns to help us understand connectivity and identify which networks may be under-performing.

    • Guided PBM sessions: The same helmet delivers precise, non-invasive light therapy to gently stimulate targeted regions and support neuroplasticity.

    • Kid-friendly & efficient: Short, quiet sessions; no fuss, no pain.

    • High-grade clinical lasers: Deliver specific wavelengths to support cellular energy (mitochondrial function) and local circulation.

    • Network-aware placement: We pair laser sessions with movement/sensory tasks to engage the right networks while they’re being supported.

    • Fast and flexible: Great as a stand-alone boost or woven into a full sensory-motor program

    • QEEG Brain Mapping (with the iSyncMe helmet)
      HRV (vagal tone) Analysis

    • Primitive Reflex, 

    • Balance & Coordination Testing

    • Vestibular testing 

    • Developmental/Functional Neurology Assessment

    • Timing/Attention measures (e.g., Interactive Metronome assessment)

    • Targeted labs when clinically useful

    • Photobiomodulation (iSyncMe helmet + Neurosolution lasers), 

    • Primitive reflex integration, 

    • Vagal nerve Rehabilitation

    • Vestibular rehab, 

    • Vision/auditory drills, 

    • Whole-body vibration, 

    • Rhythm/timing work (e.g.,

    • Interactive Metronome), 

    • Neurosage - digital neuro-therapy technology

    • Transcranial Direct current 

    • Tens

    • Braintap
