The Primitive OT

The Primitive OT is a specialised occupational therapy practice based in Hornsby, New South Wales, Australia, offering personalised therapy services for children, adolescents and adults aimed at improving motor, sensory, emotional and cognitive functioning. The practice combines traditional occupational therapy strategies with a neurodevelopmental focus on primitive reflex integration and rhythmic movements to build a strong foundation for daily living skills, coordination, emotional regulation and overall developmental outcomes. It provides assessments, intervention sessions, tailored treatment plans and comprehensive reporting, including Functional Capacity Assessments (FCA) and Supported Independent Living (SIL) reports to support therapy goals and NDIS funding pathways.

Serving individuals with a variety of needs — from developmental delays, sensory processing challenges and neurological conditions to motor coordination difficulties and daily living skill goals — The Primitive OT offers services in‑clinic, in‑home, at schools and via telehealth, making care accessible and flexible for clients across Sydney and surrounding regions. The practice’s value lies in its individualised, brain‑body integrated approach, experienced therapists, and emphasis on helping clients achieve greater independence and participation in everyday life through evidence‑informed and holistic occupational therapy techniques.
