Understanding Sensory Processing in Greenbank
At Balance Allied Health Queensland, we understand that sensory processing differences can significantly impact daily life. For NDIS participants in Greenbank, everyday sounds, textures, lights, or movements can be overwhelming, or they might struggle to notice important sensory input. This can lead to difficulties with focus, emotional regulation, social interactions, and participation in activities they enjoy.
Our team focuses on truly understanding these individual differences. We provide expert assessment and intervention for a range of sensory challenges, including difficulties with modulation (how the brain processes and organises sensory input), sensory seeking behaviours, sensory avoiding behaviours, and sensory sensitivities across all systems: tactile, auditory, visual, oral, vestibular (balance and movement), and proprioceptive (body awareness).
Personalised Support for Greenbank Families
We believe in a tailored approach. Our Sensory Profile 2 assessments provide a detailed picture of an individual’s unique sensory processing patterns. This comprehensive understanding allows us to develop a ‘sensory diet’ that is specifically designed to help regulate their nervous system throughout the day. This isn’t about eliminating sensory experiences but about finding the right balance for comfort and function.

Common questions
- What is a Sensory Profile 2 assessment?
- The Sensory Profile 2 is a standardised assessment used to identify a person's unique sensory processing patterns. It helps us understand how they respond to different sensory input, whether they are over-responsive, under-responsive, or seeking particular sensations. This assessment guides the creation of a targeted support plan.
- What is a 'sensory diet' and how can it help my child in Greenbank?
- A 'sensory diet' is a personalised plan of sensory activities designed to help regulate a person's arousal level throughout the day. It's like a nutritional diet for the brain, providing the right 'sensory nutrients' at the right time. For children in Greenbank, it can help improve focus, manage meltdowns, reduce anxiety, and enhance participation in school and home activities.
- Do you offer NDIS sensory processing support for adults in Greenbank?
- Yes, Balance Allied Health Queensland provides sensory processing support for NDIS participants of all ages, including adults. We recognise that sensory differences can impact adults just as much as children, and our assessments and interventions are tailored to meet individual needs, promoting greater comfort and independence in Greenbank.
- Is Balance Allied Health Queensland an NDIS registered provider for sensory therapy?
- Balance Allied Health Queensland is an NDIS provider, and we support self-managed and plan-managed NDIS participants. We are not an NDIS registered provider, which is a common and fully compliant way to offer NDIS services. You can absolutely use your NDIS plan with us for sensory processing therapy in Greenbank.
