Services Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health offers for developmental delay
Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health lists fine motor support as a service that may assist children experiencing developmental delay. Fine motor skills—the ability to control small hand and finger movements—are foundational for activities like writing, drawing, fastening buttons, and self-feeding. Children with developmental delay often benefit from targeted fine motor intervention to build strength, coordination, and confidence in daily tasks.
According to its listing, Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health may use activities such as threading beads or pegs, scissor practice with graded resistance, and hand-strengthening exercises using therapy putty or tweezers to develop pincer grip and dexterity. Occupational therapists typically work with children on functional tasks relevant to their age and environment—for example, practising pencil grip during drawing activities or manipulating fasteners on clothing during play-based sessions.
Children with developmental delay may be eligible for support through the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), which can fund allied health services including occupational therapy. However, NDIS registration for Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot. Parents considering this clinic should contact them directly to discuss funding options, eligibility, and how fine motor intervention aligns with their child's individual goals and needs.

How does fine motor therapy help a child with developmental delay?
Fine motor therapy builds the small hand and finger movements needed for writing, eating, dressing, and play. A therapist works on strength, coordination, and control through graded activities. Progress is typically gradual and depends on the child's starting point and consistency of practice both in sessions and at home.

What should I expect in a fine motor session at this clinic?

The therapist observes how the child uses their hands, provides guidance or modifications, and may suggest home activities to practise between sessions.
