Children's Therapy Services Queensland

Children's Therapy Services Queensland The mission of Inspiring Choices 4 Kids Therapy is to empower our clients, their parents and their caregivers to lead the life they want to live.

We provide an Integrative approach based on function (developmental, neurological) to support families of children with autism, ADHD developmental delays, neurological and cognitive challenges. With understanding in brain development and organisation, using the science of developmental and functional neurology, sensory processing, movement, cognition and learning, social brain awareness, and nutritional medicine, everyone can achieve optimal function and break the barriers of their conditions. Our goal is for children to feel safe, to learn to regulate their emotions, develop happier and more joyful relationships with their parents and in school, to thrive in their learning, and enjoy improved health. We value and respect the rights, responsibilities and aspirations of people with a disability while promoting maximum inclusion and participation. We believe the best results are achieved when parents are involved in their child’s therapeutic process, working as an integral part of our integrative team of professionals. We offer a space of safety, patience, tolerance and acceptance, where you and your family can feel supported and understood. We will help you to communicate your concerns, understand your child’s needs and develop strategies to integrate changes into your and your child’s daily life, one step at a time.

🧠✨ Dr Arini was Back for a quick visit! Team Training on The Social Brain at CTS QLD ✨🧠

We were so lucky to have Dr Arini pop into the clinic fresh from France to deliver an incredible team training session on The Social Brain.

Understanding how the social brain develops, how children process connection, safety, communication, and behaviour — and what “colour” your child is — gives parents and professionals powerful insight into emotional regulation and social development.

Whether you’re a parent, educator, therapist or support worker, these skills change everything.
And the best part? You can access this support from anywhere.

🌿 Lavender & Peppermint: Simple Hemisphere Support at Home 🌿

Did you know that essential oils can be used to gently stimulate each side of the brain?
In functional neurology and Melillo-based programs, we often layer sensory input to help strengthen and balance the hemispheres.

✨ Lavender – calming, grounding & supports LEFT hemisphere activation
✨ Peppermint – uplifting, alerting & supports RIGHT hemisphere activation

These simple sensory cues can be paired with your child’s home program to boost focus, regulation and brain-body connection.

If you’re curious which hemisphere your child relies on most — or which one needs strengthening — book in for a full Melillo Method Assessment at CTS Queensland.
We dive into primitive reflexes, sensory-motor development, vestibular function, cerebellar pathways, eye movements and more to create a personalised, evidence-informed plan.

📩 DM us or head to our website to book your assessment.

✨Vibration Plate Therapy – Calming the Body, Focusing the Mind✨

Our vibration plate sessions are one of the kids’ favourites — and for good reason! 💪💫

✅ Calming & Regulating: The gentle vibration helps activate the vestibular and proprioceptive systems, supporting body awareness and calming the nervous system.
✅ Improved Focus & Attention: Regular use can help kids with ADHD and autism improve alertness and self-regulation.
✅ Stronger Core & Balance: Builds muscle tone, stability, and postural control — essential foundations for learning and movement.
✅ Sensory Integration: Helps children process sensory input more efficiently, reducing overwhelm and improving coordination.

We often pair the vibration plate with other therapies like rhythmic movement, Physio, laser, or balance work for maximum results 🌈

🧠 Laser Therapy for the Cerebellum 🧠
Did you know the cerebellum (the “little brain” at the back of the skull) plays a huge role in balance, coordination, attention, emotional regulation, and learning?

At Children’s Therapy Services QLD, we use Erchonia and Avant low-level lasers to gently stimulate the cerebellum — helping to activate neural pathways and support overall brain communication.

✨ Benefits may include:
🔹 Improved focus and attention
🔹 Better posture and balance
🔹 Enhanced coordination and motor control
🔹 Calmer behaviour and emotional regulation
🔹 Support for sensory processing and academic learning

This non-invasive, pain-free and drug-free therapy is part of our holistic, brain-based approach — combining movement, rhythm, reflex integration, and light therapy for powerful results.

💡 We don’t just work on symptoms — we help the brain connect and communicate more effectively.

✨ After a late night at SeaWorld…
We had a tough morning 😴 so out came my go-to tools at home — the Rezzimax for calming the nervous system and relieving tension, and the Manta sleep mask to help reset and recharge.

As parents, we have lived experience of the challenges families face — which means we bring true understanding and genuine empathy to the work we do every day 💛

This walk is a reminder that every child deserves to be safe, protected, and heard. By taking part, we honour Daniel Morecombe’s legacy and continue the mission to educate, empower, and protect children across our communities.

Let’s all do our part — spread awareness, start conversations, and keep children safe. 👣💙

Why W-Sitting Matters

You may notice your child often sits in a “W” position, with their knees bent inward and feet out to the sides. While it can look comfortable, frequent W-sitting is often linked to retained primitive reflexes (like the Tonic Labyrinthine Reflex and Asymmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex).

These reflexes, when they don’t fully integrate, can affect:
👉 Core strength and posture
👉 Balance and coordination
👉 Attention and focus
👉 The way children cross midline (an important foundation for reading and writing)

Supporting reflex integration with movement-based therapy, functional neurology activities, and play can make a big difference. 🌈

💭 A Note from me as a Parent
I often think, “I wish I knew then what I know now.”

When my child was that age, I didn’t realise how much their sitting posture could reflect what was happening in their nervous system. As parents, we only know what we know at the time — and we’re all doing our best with the information we have.

Now, with more understanding, I see how important it is to look beyond the surface and support development in ways that help kids thrive long-term. If you see your child W-sitting, don’t panic — just know it may be a clue worth exploring. 🌟

🔹 Therapy can be fun, playful, and empowering.
🔹 Reflex work builds strong foundations for learning and behaviour.
🔹 And remember — it’s never too late to support your child’s development!

🌬️ Mouth Breathing & Primitive Reflexes 🧠✨

Did you know that mouth breathing can sometimes be linked to retained primitive reflexes? These early survival reflexes — like the Moro reflex or TLR — should naturally integrate as a child develops. If they don’t, they can impact posture, muscle tone, and even breathing patterns.

For children with ADHD, mouth breathing may add extra challenges:
➡️ Less oxygen to the brain → reduced focus & attention
➡️ Increased stress on the nervous system
➡️ Poor sleep quality, leading to emotional regulation difficulties
➡️ Ongoing impact on speech, jaw development & overall health

💡 At CTS QLD, we assess primitive reflexes as part of our functional neurology approach. Addressing these early patterns can improve breathing, focus, behaviour, and learning outcomes — giving kids a stronger foundation for growth.

👧👦 Remember: mouth breathing isn’t “just a habit.” It’s often a clue that deeper neurological patterns are at play.

📍 Book an assessment with our team to see how primitive reflex work can support your child’s development.

🌟 At CTS QLD we’ve named our therapy rooms! 🌟
We know stepping into therapy can sometimes feel overwhelming, so we’ve given each room a warm and friendly name to help children feel comfortable, safe and settled. 💙

By taking away that “clinical feel,” we create spaces where kids can relax, engage, and truly enjoy their sessions. 🧩✨
