Sensory processing Support at Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health — Across WA
Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health in Across WA lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for sensory processing.
Services Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health offers for sensory processing
Children with sensory processing difficulties often struggle to regulate their responses to everyday stimuli—sounds, textures, movement, and touch can feel overwhelming or underwhelming. At Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health in Across WA, our occupational therapists address these challenges through two key service areas. Our sensory processing support helps children develop better awareness and tolerance of sensory input through tailored activities such as weighted blanket work, obstacle course play, and texture exploration activities. Fine motor intervention complements this by building hand strength and coordination, which often improves a child's confidence and ability to engage with their environment. For example, threading activities, playdough manipulation, and handwriting practice can reduce anxiety around fine motor tasks while providing calming sensory feedback. Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health works with families to understand each child's unique sensory profile and create strategies for home and school. If your child is eligible for NDIS funding in 2025–26, occupational therapy services may be covered under capacity building supports. We recommend discussing funding options and assessment pathways with our team.

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 occupational therapy diagnose sensory processing disorder?
No—occupational therapists cannot diagnose SPD, autism, or ADHD. However, our OTs at Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health can assess sensory responses, identify patterns of difficulty, and recommend strategies to support your child. A formal diagnosis requires assessment by a paediatrician or psychologist. We work collaboratively with other professionals involved in your child's care.
How do I know if my child needs sensory processing support?
Signs include strong reactions to sounds, textures, or movement; difficulty with transitions; clumsiness; avoiding certain foods or clothing; or seeking intense sensory input. If you've noticed these patterns, contact Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health for an initial chat. An occupational therapist can observe your child and discuss whether intervention may help.
Will NDIS funding cover occupational therapy for sensory processing?
NDIS funding availability depends on your child's eligibility and plan. In 2025–26, occupational therapy may be funded under capacity building supports if sensory difficulties impact daily functioning. Palms Physiotherapy & Allied Health can discuss your funding options and help you understand what services might be covered under your plan.
