ADHD Support at Physio Inq — Maroubra South, NSW

Children with ADHD and attention difficulties often experience challenges with sensory processing, fine motor control, and written tasks—areas where occupational therapy can make a meaningful difference. At Physio Inq in Maroubra South, our occupational therapists work with these interconnected needs through tailored interventions. Sensory processing support helps children regulate their nervous system and improve focus; this might include activities like using weighted lap pads during schoolwork or engaging in controlled movement breaks with balance equipment. Fine motor development directly supports handwriting confidence and classroom participation, with Physio Inq therapists using play-based exercises such as threading activities, scissor work, and finger strengthening games. Handwriting intervention addresses the specific motor planning and postural control needed for writing tasks, reducing frustration during school. We recognise that occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD, but we can address the functional difficulties that often accompany it. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing structures apply where eligible), making support more accessible. Our approach focuses on building your child's confidence and independence in everyday activities, whether that's managing sensory input at school or completing written work with greater ease.
