Autism Support at Physio Inq — Across NSW
Physio Inq in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services Physio Inq offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience challenges with sensory processing and fine motor skills, which can impact daily activities like eating, writing, and self-care. At Physio Inq, our occupational therapists work with children to develop strategies that support their sensory needs and build motor confidence. Sensory processing support might include activities such as using sensory swings or weighted blankets to help regulate responses to touch and movement, or structured play with different textures to build tolerance. Fine motor interventions focus on strengthening hand control through activities like threading, scissor work, and handwriting practice tailored to each child's abilities. Physio Inq recognises that every child is unique, and therapy is individualised to address specific goals. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025-26), which can cover occupational therapy support when autism-related goals are included in a participant's plan. Our therapists work collaboratively with families and schools to ensure strategies are practical and consistent across environments.

About autism
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental difference that shapes how children process information, communicate, and respond to their sensory environment. In Australia, autism is identified across a wide range of ages, and many families first speak with a GP or paediatrician about referrals for assessment after noticing differences in play, communication, sensory responses, or daily routines.

Common questions
Can occupational therapy help my child with autism?
Occupational therapy can support children with autism by addressing sensory sensitivities and fine motor challenges that may affect daily activities. However, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism—diagnosis comes from medical professionals. At Physio Inq, we focus on building practical skills and strategies to help your child participate more comfortably in everyday routines, whether that's eating, dressing, or schoolwork.
How does Physio Inq tailor therapy for my child's specific needs?
Every child is different, so our occupational therapists at Physio Inq start with a thorough assessment to understand your child's sensory preferences, motor abilities, and daily challenges. We then create a personalised therapy plan with specific goals and activities matched to your child's interests and learning style, working with you to identify what matters most for your family.
Does NDIS cover occupational therapy at Physio Inq?
Yes, Physio Inq is NDIS registered. If your child has autism included in their NDIS plan with goals related to sensory processing or fine motor skills, occupational therapy may be covered. We recommend checking your plan details and contacting us to discuss how funding can be used for your child's therapy needs.
