Fine motor interventions typically involve structured, play-based activities designed to strengthen hand muscles and improve coordination.

Common questions

How do I know if my child has a fine motor delay?

Signs include difficulty holding pencils or cutlery, trouble with buttons or zips, messy handwriting, reluctance to draw or write, or clumsiness with small objects. An occupational therapist can assess your child's skills compared to age-typical development. However, an OT cannot diagnose conditions like autism or developmental coordination disorder—only a paediatrician or specialist can do that.

Does cohealth Occupational Therapy accept NDIS funding?

NDIS registration for cohealth Occupational Therapy has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot. Contact the clinic directly to ask whether it is registered with the NDIA and accepts NDIS plans. If not NDIS-registered, the clinic may operate on a private fee-for-service basis.

How long does fine motor therapy usually take?

Duration varies depending on the severity of delay and your child's age. Some children show progress within weeks; others benefit from ongoing support over several months. cohealth Occupational Therapy can discuss expected timeframes during an initial appointment based on your child's individual needs and goals.
