ADHD Support at Physio Inq — Across WA

Children with ADHD and attention difficulties often benefit from targeted occupational therapy support. At Physio Inq, our paediatric occupational therapists address two key areas that can significantly impact attention and self-regulation: sensory processing and fine motor skills. Sensory processing work helps children who are either over- or under-responsive to sensory input—activities like using a sensory swing or weighted lap pad can help calm an overactive nervous system, making it easier to focus on tasks. Fine motor interventions, such as precision grip exercises and hand-strengthening activities, support the physical control needed for writing and classroom tasks, reducing frustration that can trigger attention difficulties. Physio Inq also incorporates visual schedules and structured movement breaks into sessions to support sustained attention. While occupational therapy cannot diagnose ADHD or sensory processing disorder, these interventions address the underlying skill gaps that often co-occur with attention challenges. Many families access our services through NDIS funding; we encourage you to discuss your child's needs with your local planner. Our team works collaboratively with schools and other professionals to ensure consistent support across your child's environments.
