The NeuroAbilitation method was initially created to support children with neurological challenges. It can, however, be used for all learners, including adults and it is widely applicable beyond motor learning to all learning and teaching.
NeuroAbilitation techniques facilitate learning by identifying the skill base in motor, speech and play, and the skill repertoire of the child/individual.
We look at the child/individual and see what they can do and how it is delivered, the way they plan and execute skills. Referencing all these critical components will give the NeuroAbilitation specialist the perfect picture of the child/individual – baseline skills, way of learning and the way of delivering skills, the specialist will identify the root problem and create the perfect developmental blueprint program.
NeuroAbilitation is a method utilising all systems that are involved in creating and recreating neurological blueprints which can expedite the Brain and Body learning/healing/recalibration process, thus for children/individuals reducing the impact of neurological conditions such as developmental delays, ‘clumsiness’, dyspraxia, cerebral palsy, autism, and chromosomal abnormalities.
For adults NeuroAbilition supports the recalibration of default patterns, such as chronic pain, spinal distortions, trauma stored in the body and faulty brain maps.

Holding a Bachelor of Education and Conducive Education (Rehabilitation Specialist) as well as holding current qualifications in Neurodevelopment Therapy and Hypnotherapy, Zsuzsanna has a wealth of knowledge and experience to best guide you and your beautiful children.
Her experience derived from 30 years of study, work and research into neuroplasticity, neuroinflammation, motor learning and child development, lead her to develop NeuroAbilitation, a multi-faceted approach to helping children and adults who have neurological issues or developmental delays to explore, restore and connect functionality.
Zsuzsanna pioneered NeuroAbilitation – which is now available as a training module and as a method to expedite the development of children.
She draws on the passion of her own experiences as a mother with a child who had neurological challenges.
I was invited to Australia in 1997 to oversee and develop educational rehabilitation programs for the Department of Education of South Australia. With 30 years of experience and studies, I have helped hundreds of children with all kinds of developmental challenges – speech, mobility, and socialising issues.
I was fortunate to see many children who improved vastly on the initial diagnosis (like developmental delay) and others who’s diagnosis was downgraded. The quality-of-life children and families can experience improves dramatically due to targeted support.
In 2001, The Foundation for Young Australians recognised my work, and I was awarded an Individual Achievers Grant. I used the grant to start a screening program for babies and toddlers who were at risk of developmental issues – now it is known as the Better Start Better Future Program.
I use methods and techniques that are unique, successful and expedite development. I proudly call this method NeuroAbilitation. XX Zsuzsanna
“I gave birth to my son two weeks early. He was so small and tiny. He did not develop well physically and didn’t reach milestones on time. We heard the ‘don’t worry he’ll get there’ plenty of times. I was worried.
Ollie was 10 months old and still not crawling. He was just sitting with straight legs when we placed him in a sitting position. I took him to different therapists and doctors but no change. I was fed up, when during the last hours of my patience I came across the Brain Body Potential team – NeuroAbilitation method. We did a Skype session. From the first “meeting” I was impressed with the professionalism and support. They looked at Ollie just once and knew what was wrong. Immediately I was given instructions, tips, exercises to do with him.
The development was amazing and improved day after day. In a short time, Ollie started crawling and quickly achieved further milestones. I could see the world had opened up for him. He became a very happy little boy.
He is now four years old and attends a regular kindergarten. His gross and fine motor skills are now age-appropriate and increased his skills. He is social and clever. We cannot thank the Brain Body Potential team enough for their support. Without their help, we could not have achieved what we have and got back on track as a family.”
Just after one treatment I felt taller. Within a week the referring leg pain and my lower back pain was gone. I slept like a baby again.
“I had the privilege of witnessing a miraculous change in a 15-month-old boy’s life. Seated around a café table with my extended family a most amazing event started to unfold. My cousin’s grandson was 15 months old, not walking, not talking and reluctant to engage with people. The family was discussing his laziness in regard to delayed progress in walking. Zsuzsanna picked up the little boy and started to engage him in “intentional connected play”. Whilst we are drinking coffee, Zsuzsanna walked around the table talking to the little boy and playing with him. Five minutes later she is delivering her assessment of his issues: cerebral palsy and disconnect presenting as mild autism. She went onto say that if the little boy is not going to get support the prognosis for his future is highly likely wheelchair and electronic devices. Zsuzsanna volunteered to help the family. In a one-hour session with the little boy’s parents Zsuzsanna taught them playful exercises they needed to do to engage the hip movement. She educated the parents about why their son was having difficulty and the importance of getting the little boy to
walk. Essentially, walking sets up the cascade in the brain for talking as well. The importance of this stage of development for this little boy’s future was pivotal. In less than 10 days the little boy was walking. What I found particularly remarkable was the immediacy of change in the little boy. The minute Zsuzsanna started to work with him he started to alter his behaviour. Zsuzsanna Molnar Hay embodies specialised knowledge in the area of neuron plasticity. Her knowledge is strongly augmented by her ability to use intentional play-based therapy to elicit the cooperation of the child. It is truly a remarkable experience to observe the miracle of the brain re-wiring itself to connect to the body and enable the abilities that lie within. Children with brain and neurological issues are already highly challenged. Zsuzsanna offers a solution to families that significantly reduces the stress of rehabilitation whilst accelerating the progress of the rehabilitation, or in Zsuzsanna’s words the ‘abilitation’ of the child.”
“My daughter was reluctant to commando crawl and to crawl. She loved playing on her tummy and used one leg to stabilise. I learned the latter from Zsuzsanna. As a well-trained child-development specialist, Zsuzsanna made a quick baseline assessment to know where Ari was at, and to see what has to be done next to catch her up, she showed me what ‘sticky brain patterns’ to look out for, how to avoid them, how to gently teach my little one and how to encourage her when the ‘old, sticky patterns’ took hold and help her back. Now my baby is crawling, back on track.
I am so thankful! As a first-time mum, I was worried. The reassurance and support was soooooo needed.”
Pay it forward and help another child and their family work towards a happier, and empowered future.
“Empowerment, not missed milestones!“
