Sensory processing Support at cohealth Occupational Therapy — Niddrie, VIC

cohealth Occupational Therapy lists sensory processing and fine motor support as core services. For children with sensory processing difficulties, the clinic's sensory processing service typically addresses how children respond to touch, movement, sound, and visual input. According to its listing, interventions may include activities such as work with sensory swings or weighted equipment to help regulate responses to movement and proprioceptive input, as well as structured sensory activities designed to support a child's ability to process and respond to everyday sensations. Fine motor support listed by cohealth Occupational Therapy often complements sensory work, since sensory processing difficulties can affect hand strength, coordination, and control needed for writing, cutting, and self-care tasks. Examples of fine motor activities may include hand strengthening exercises, threading or manipulation tasks, and practise with pencil grip and scissor use. Parents should note that an occupational therapist cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder; diagnosis typically comes from a paediatrician or psychologist. NDIS registration for cohealth Occupational Therapy has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot, so families interested in NDIS-funded support should contact the clinic directly to clarify funding eligibility and current arrangements under the 2025-26 NDIS pricing structure.
