Melillo Method Australia
Welcome to Flourishing Brains
If your child is struggling with focus, learning delays, behavioural issues, coordination and motor control, you’re in the right place.
At Flourishing Brains, we support children with neurological, behavioural, and developmental challenges using holistic, science-backed therapies that work with the brain, not against it.
Grounded in the renowned Melillo Method, our approach identifies and corrects brain imbalances at their root, improving attention, coordination, emotional regulation, and more, so your child can truly thrive.
Flourishing Brains is a home-based functional neurology clinic that supports children with neurological, behavioural, and developmental challenges. We’re one of the few providers in Australia trained in the Melillo Method™, a pioneering framework that identifies and addresses functional disconnections in the brain.
These disconnects can be at the root of so many of the struggles children experience, from difficulty sitting still or concentrating, to regulating emotions and making friends, to delays in reading, writing, speaking, or motor control.
Instead of simply managing symptoms, we work to correct the underlying neurological imbalance, tapping into the brain’s incredible ability to adapt, rewire, and grow, helping your child to flourish.
What is the Melillo Method?
The Melillo Method is an evidence-based, non-invasive framework that helps identify and correct functional disconnections in the brain – imbalances between the left and right hemispheres that often underlie challenges like ADHD, Autism, learning delays, sensory processing difficulties, challenges with cooridination and motor control, and more.
Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, this method focuses on stimulating and strengthening the under-active areas. In doing so, it helps the brain function better as a whole – improving communication between regions, and restoring balance across the nervous system.
How can we support your child’s development?
We take a personalised, whole-child approach – combining holistic neurodevelopmental assessments with gentle and effective therapies like interactive metronome therapy, laser therapy, and specific brain balance exercises.
This tailored process ensures we meet your child where they’re at, and support their journey toward improved focus, emotional regulation, motor coordination, communication, and confidence.
Compassionate, holistic, science-backed care
We know that neurodevelopmental challenges don’t just impact the child. They can affect the whole family.
That’s why we’re committed to walking this journey with you. We’ll guide you through the process with care, clarity, and kindness – explaining each step, answering your questions, and celebrating every win along the way.
Whether you’re at the beginning of your journey or have been seeking support for years, our team is here to help you feel empowered, educated, and encouraged.

Our Integrated Therapy Approach
Every child is unique – and so is their brain. That’s why we offer a carefully tailored combination of therapies designed to activate and balance specific areas of the brain and nervous system.
From innovative tools like laser therapy and interactive metronome training, to movement-based brain balance exercises and sensory stimulation, each modality plays a key role in restoring connection, improving function, and helping your child reach their full potential.
