Sensory processing Support at Health2GO — SA

Children with sensory processing difficulties often struggle to regulate their responses to everyday stimuli—sounds, textures, movement, and touch. Health2GO's occupational therapy services address these challenges through two complementary approaches. Sensory processing therapy helps children develop better tolerance and organisation of sensory input, using activities like controlled exposure to different textures, movement-based play on therapy equipment, and calming strategies tailored to each child's needs. Fine motor work supports the hand strength and coordination required for daily tasks, which can be affected when sensory sensitivities interfere with engagement. At Health2GO in Across, SA, therapists might use weighted equipment to provide grounding input, introduce brushing or compression techniques, or guide children through fine-motor activities such as threading, cutting, or manipulating small objects in a structured, low-pressure environment. These services work together to help children participate more comfortably in school, self-care, and play. If you're considering support, discuss with your child's GP or paediatrician about referral pathways. Many families access occupational therapy through NDIS funding (2025–26 pricing applies where eligible); Health2GO can advise on eligibility and funding options during your initial consultation.
