Autism Support at Physio Inq — Across QLD
Physio Inq in Across QLD lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services Physio Inq offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in sensory processing and fine motor development, which can impact daily activities like eating, writing, and self-care. At Physio Inq, our occupational therapists work with children to build skills and confidence in these areas. For sensory processing, we use tailored activities such as weighted blanket work, sensory bins with various textures, and movement-based play to help children regulate their responses to sights, sounds, and touch. Fine motor interventions at Physio Inq might include hand strengthening exercises, threading activities, and practise with utensils or writing tools to support independence. Our therapists also incorporate visual supports and structured routines into sessions, recognising that many autistic children benefit from predictability and clear communication. If your child is NDIS-registered, occupational therapy services are typically funded under core supports or capacity building, and Physio Inq can work with your plan to deliver evidence-informed support. We focus on building your child's strengths and helping them participate more fully in school, home, and community life.

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 an occupational therapist diagnose autism?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder—that requires assessment by a paediatrician, psychologist, or psychiatrist. However, our team at Physio Inq can identify sensory and motor differences and provide targeted support to help your child develop skills and manage daily activities more comfortably, regardless of diagnosis.
How does NDIS funding work with Physio Inq?
If your child is NDIS-registered, occupational therapy is typically funded through core supports or capacity building. Physio Inq is registered with the NDIA, and we can work directly with your plan to deliver sessions. We recommend discussing therapy goals with your planner to ensure the funding allocation suits your child's needs.
What should I expect in the first session?
Your first appointment includes gathering information about your child's strengths, challenges, and daily routines. Our occupational therapist will observe how your child plays and interacts, then discuss observations and potential goals with you. Sessions are tailored to your child's interests and pace, creating a comfortable environment for learning and development.
