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 differences in how they process sensory information, which can affect their daily functioning, learning, and social participation. Physio Inq's sensory processing support helps children develop better awareness of and responses to sensory input from their environment. Through tailored interventions, occupational therapists work with each child to build coping strategies and improve engagement. Examples of activities used at Physio Inq include weighted equipment work to provide calming input, sensory circuit activities that combine movement and tactile experiences, and environmental modifications to reduce overwhelming stimuli in learning spaces. These approaches help children feel more regulated and ready to participate in school, home, and community activities. It's important to note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder; however, they can support the sensory processing challenges that often accompany it. Many families access Physio Inq's services through NDIS funding, which can cover occupational therapy support under the 2025-26 pricing arrangements. Your child's individualised plan will guide which sensory strategies are most helpful for their specific needs.

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. However, they can assess and support sensory processing differences and other functional challenges that children with autism may experience. If you're seeking an autism diagnosis, you'll need to consult with a paediatrician or developmental specialist. Physio Inq's team can work alongside your child's diagnostic team to provide targeted support.
How does sensory processing support help my autistic child at school?
Sensory processing difficulties can make school environments overwhelming. Occupational therapists help children develop strategies to manage sensory input, such as using movement breaks, weighted tools, or quiet spaces. These skills improve focus, reduce anxiety, and help your child participate more comfortably in classroom activities. Physio Inq can also liaise with schools to suggest environmental adjustments.
Does NDIS cover occupational therapy at Physio Inq?
Many families access occupational therapy through NDIS funding. Physio Inq can discuss your child's NDIS plan and how therapy costs align with 2025-26 pricing arrangements. If your child has an approved NDIS plan with occupational therapy supports, contact Physio Inq to confirm their participation and how to proceed with booking.
