Autism Support at Physio Inq — Across VIC
Physio Inq in Across VIC 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 Across, our occupational therapists work with children to build confidence and independence in these areas. Through sensory processing support, we use tailored activities such as weighted blanket trials, textured play exploration, and movement-based activities to help children regulate their responses to sensory input. For fine motor development, we incorporate practical exercises like threading beads, scissor skills practice, and pencil grip training into engaging play-based sessions. Physio Inq recognises that every child's needs are unique, and we work collaboratively with families to identify goals that matter most. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements), which can support occupational therapy sessions. We recommend discussing your child's specific needs with your GP or paediatrician, as occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder but can assess and support functional skills development.

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 therapists like those at Physio Inq can support children with autism by addressing sensory processing differences and fine motor skills that may affect daily activities. We cannot diagnose autism, but we can work with your child on specific functional goals such as self-care, play skills, and coordination. Our approach is individualised to your child's strengths and needs.
How does Physio Inq make sessions engaging for autistic children?
We use play-based, sensory-rich activities tailored to each child's interests and sensory preferences. Sessions might include movement activities, textured exploration, or fine motor games. We work at your child's pace and communicate clearly about what to expect, which many autistic children find helpful.
Can we access Physio Inq services through NDIS funding?
Many families use NDIS funding to access occupational therapy services. We recommend checking your child's NDIS plan and speaking with Physio Inq directly about funding arrangements and how we can support your goals within the 2025-26 pricing framework.
