Sensory processing Support at Physio Inq — NSW

Physio Inq lists sensory processing and fine motor support as services for children with sensory processing disorder. According to its listing, sensory processing interventions typically involve activities designed to help children regulate their responses to sensory input—such as touch, movement, sound, and visual information. Examples of activities commonly used in this area include work with sensory equipment like swings or weighted items to help children develop better body awareness, and graded exposure to different textures or movement experiences. Fine motor support listed by Physio Inq often complements sensory work, as children with sensory processing differences may experience challenges with hand strength, coordination, or pencil control. Interventions in this area might include structured hand exercises, play-based activities to build finger dexterity, or adapted tools to support writing and self-care tasks. Parents should note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder; diagnosis typically comes from a paediatrician or developmental specialist. For families with NDIS plans, Physio Inq is listed as NDIS registered (self-reported, not independently verified), which may mean services could be funded under occupational therapy supports in the 2025-26 scheme, subject to plan eligibility and individual circumstances.
