We work with children, teens, and adults to nurture learning, focus, and emotional wellbeing
Using a gentle, holistic approach, our movement, sensory, and cognitive programmes help your family feel understood, supported, and empowered.
A Gentle, Holistic Approach
At Brain Bloom Room, you and your family are at the heart of everything we do. We offer a drug-free approach that looks beyond labels and behaviours to better understand your brain — and your child’s brain. We take time to find the root cause of struggles and know that the brain develops in a specific way.
Personalised Programmes That Work
Every journey begins with listening. Through individual assessments, we learn about your experiences, strengths, and challenges so we can create a personalised programme that supports your unique needs.
Our REWIRE programme
Our REWIRE programme, inspired by the Melillo Method™, helps the two sides of the brain work together more smoothly. When this connection strengthens, many people notice improvements in learning, focus, emotional regulation, coordination, and everyday confidence.
We use a tailored blend of:
Gentle movement activities
Sensory integration exercises
Cognitive developmental activities
Supportive lifestyle guidance
This combination encourages steady, sustainable progress for your child—or for you.
Who We Support
We work with children, teens, and adults navigating:
ADHD, autism spectrum (ASD)
Dyslexia and dyscalculia
Speech and language challenges
Sensory processing struggles
Attention and learning challenges
Big emotions
We also help with:
Balance and coordination difficulties
Memory challenges
Anxiety and low mood
Growing Confidence & Resilience
At Brain Bloom Room, we believe every brain has the capacity to grow and change at any stage of life. With the right support, growth is possible. Our role is to walk beside you with care, compassion, and hope, helping your family move toward greater ease, resilience, and well-being.
Our practice is informed by the work of Dr. Robert Melillo & backed by Harvard University research.
Dr. Melillo is a neurologist, brain researcher & the founder of Brain Balance (USA) and The Melillo Method™. Brain Bloom Room Founder Michelle Lowe came across Dr. Melillo and his work as she searched for answers in this space and is very grateful to have his work informing the practice of The Brain Bloom Room here in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Testimonial
“ Our son's initial Assessment before arriving at the the Brain Bloom Room clinic included a grim explanation of the fact that he would never be able to excel in sport as Dyspraxia was not something that could be 'cured'. Working with the team at the Brain Bloom Room, we as parents were given a clear understanding of what wasn't working in our son neurologically and we were provided with the actual tools and practices that we needed to work on regularly with our son in order to improve his aptitude to learn, enjoy life and pursue things that may have otherwise been difficult or impossible to pursue. After a year of their guidance we are extremely happy with the outcome and the significant improvements in our son. He is excelling in sport, he's now an excellent swimmer and football player, he can concentrate for long periods of time, enjoys in-depth conversations and takes initiative to read by himself and do his school work unaided. We highly recommend the team at the Brain Bloom Room to help support and heal your child who may be experiencing inhibiting neurological difficulties."

“ Our daughter couldn’t remember names, even of extended family members, colours or phonic sounds. I think she knew she wasn’t connecting all the dots and people would get frustrated with her. Instructions would be given to her and she either didn’t hear or would forget and get distracted. I can now give her multiple instructions and she follows them. Her confidence has grown and she is so much more confident.”

“ Within the first month of working with the Brain Bloom Room, our son started showing a willingness to do homework. His handwriting and swimming have improved and he can now listen to and focus on his instructions from his Coach. He can now ride a bike without training wheels and he is better at social skills, making friends and keeping them.”

"We are eternally grateful for the support and intervention our son has had with Michelle and Reihana. We started at the Brain Bloom Room when our son was 9 years old; he had poor balance and core strength and a lot of difficulty concentrating, particularly in the classroom. He couldn't look away and back at his book and be able to continue with his work as his eyes wouldn't stay still for him to be able to refocus. There were other challenges, including behaviour and self-regulation. He was falling behind with his schoolwork and displaying disruptive behaviour in the classroom. Since working with you all at the Brain Bloom Room he has avoided any sort of diagnosis and progressed so much, we are so eternally grateful. He is progressing well at school and we have tools to continue to use. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts."
