Autism Support at Physio Inq — Maroubra South, NSW
Physio Inq in Maroubra South, NSW 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 in Maroubra South, our occupational therapists address these areas through tailored interventions. Sensory processing support helps children regulate their responses to sights, sounds, textures, and movement—for example, using weighted blankets or cushions during activities, or providing controlled sensory experiences like playing with different textured materials. Fine motor work focuses on hand strength and coordination needed for tasks such as holding cutlery, fastening buttons, or drawing. Physio Inq may incorporate activities like threading beads, using adaptive scissors, or practising pencil grip techniques. Many families access these services through NDIS funding (2025–26 pricing arrangements), which can cover occupational therapy support when autism is part of a participant's plan. Our team works collaboratively with families and other professionals to support your child's participation in everyday routines and learning 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 processing differences and fine motor skills that may affect daily activities. However, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism. Physio Inq works with children who have an autism diagnosis to help them develop skills for eating, dressing, writing, and play. We recommend discussing your child's specific needs with your GP or paediatrician first.
Does Physio Inq accept NDIS funding?
We recommend contacting Physio Inq directly to confirm current NDIS registration and funding arrangements for 2025–26. If your child has an NDIS plan that includes occupational therapy support, our team can discuss how we might work together. Not all funding arrangements are the same, so it's best to clarify eligibility when you enquire.
What should I expect in a session at Physio Inq?
Sessions typically involve assessment of your child's sensory and fine motor skills, followed by tailored activities and strategies. Your occupational therapist will work with your child in a supportive environment and provide guidance for activities you can continue at home. Sessions are designed to be engaging and play-based, and your involvement as a parent is important for supporting progress.
