Brain-Body Therapy is an innovative mental wellness app based on a simple clinical concept—that movement, combined with counseling / CBT helps better manage anxiety and depression. Created by Rio Wilson and launched in 2025 the app is built on a strong mind, body, and wellness connection. Leveraging neuroplasticity, combining guided workouts with therapy-informed content to support mood regulation and stress reduction. Each session blends counseling-informed guidance with intentional movement, sandwiching timed daily workouts between mental health focused videos sessions. From original music to voiceover and visual design, every element is created to support nervous system regulation.

Therapeutic/ Emotional Balancing Video Sessions Daily: Each counseling-inspired session centers on a specific therapeutic theme to set intentions, challenge, or motivate, before and after your movement exercise.
Mental Wellness driven by Physical Movement: These 45-minute hybrid sessions are offered to address conditions like anxiety and depression while laying the groundwork for future offerings focused on ADHD and PTSD.
Backed by Science: Rio spent 5 years developing Brain-Body Therapy to ensure the app was grounded in scientific research rather than flimsy wellness trends. The work of Dr. Andrew Sherwood at Duke University proved to be an excellent resource on how intentional movement can help in treating mental health conditions. Brain-Body Therapy continues to support Dr. Sherwood’s research and recently made a pledge of $100,000.
Mind & Body Movement for Many Ages: Created to support the mental health of both teens and adults, Brain-Body Therapy is a beneficial resource for ages 16+.
Structured Approach: 12-week programs designed to evolve with you and create sustainable habit change.
Guided Workouts: All built around a simple structure: warm-up, main movement, cooldown, paired with short discussions before and after from Director of Fitness and Master Trainer, Luke Lombardo. As a former IronMan triathlete, and global fitness consultant, he blends expert-level training knowledge with a deep passion for health and movement.
Personalized Path: The app adjusts accordingly to tailor to individual needs, adjusting intensity, movement style, and discussion focus to meet users where they are rather than pushing them into a uniform plan.
Various Exercises: Sessions include three days of cardio and two days of strength training per week, as users progress, movement styles like yoga or dance are added depending on the mental health condition being addressed.
Affordable Pricing: Available on the Apple App Store for $9.99 per month, $69.99 annually, or as a one-time lifetime purchase of $159.99.
