Sensory processing Support at Inspire Healthcare — Across NSW
Inspire Healthcare in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for sensory processing.
Services Inspire Healthcare offers for sensory processing
Children with sensory processing disorder often struggle with how their bodies interpret touch, movement, and environmental input, which can affect their ability to engage in everyday activities. Fine motor skills—like holding a pencil, fastening buttons, or manipulating small objects—require precise sensory feedback and motor control that many children with SPD find challenging. At Inspire Healthcare, our occupational therapists use fine motor activities tailored to address sensory needs alongside skill development. For example, threading beads or using tweezers to pick up small objects helps children develop hand strength whilst providing graded sensory input. Playdough manipulation and finger painting offer tactile exploration in a controlled way, helping children become more comfortable with different textures. We also incorporate activities like scissor work and pencil grip exercises that build confidence in self-care and pre-writing skills. Many families access Inspire Healthcare's services through NDIS funding (2025–26 pricing), which can cover occupational therapy supports for eligible children. Our approach recognises that improving fine motor control often reduces frustration and builds independence, supporting children's overall participation in school and home routines.

About sensory processing
Sensory Processing Disorder is the term often used by families and clinicians to describe difficulties with how a child's brain interprets and responds to sensory information. This can affect how a child manages sound, touch, movement, sights, smells, tastes, and body awareness.

Common questions
Can an occupational therapist diagnose sensory processing disorder?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose SPD—that requires assessment by a medical professional or psychologist. However, our OTs at Inspire Healthcare can identify sensory sensitivities and motor difficulties during assessment, and we work collaboratively with your child's medical team. We focus on supporting your child's functional skills and participation, regardless of formal diagnosis.
How does fine motor therapy help my child with sensory issues?
Fine motor activities provide controlled sensory input whilst building hand strength and coordination. Tasks like threading, playdough work, and scissor use help children become more comfortable with touch and develop the motor control needed for writing, eating, and dressing. Inspire Healthcare tailors these activities to your child's sensory preferences and challenges.
Can I use NDIS funding for occupational therapy at Inspire Healthcare?
Yes, Inspire Healthcare is NDIS registered. If your child has an approved NDIS plan that includes occupational therapy supports, you can use your funding with us. We recommend checking your plan details and contacting us to discuss how we can support your child's goals within the 2025–26 funding arrangements.
