Teenagers spend much of their week indoors at school, concentrating, managing social situations and often using screens for both learning and downtime.

Outdoor movement can play an important role in supporting teenage wellbeing. Experiences like running, walking, playing games or spending time in nature help release built up tension and support the nervous system to reset after a busy week 🏌️‍♂️

Time outdoors can also support focus, emotional balance and overall development during the teenage years 🌾

What outdoor activities are you and the kids enjoying this weekend?

If your teenager finds movement, participation or social situations challenging, occupational therapy can help support confidence and everyday skills.

These textured sensory blocks can help children explore touch, build fine motor strength and support regulation in a gentle, engaging way.

For many children, using their hands to press, stack and pull apart sensory toys helps their nervous system settle so they can focus, learn and connect.

If you’re currently on our wait list, simple sensory play at home can be a lovely way to support your child in the meantime.

Follow their lead, keep it playful and let curiosity do the rest.

Fine motor skills support far more than neat handwriting ✍️

They influence how children manage buttons, hold cutlery, trace shapes, use scissors and participate confidently in the classroom.

In these sessions at Total Health Orange, we were targeting:
• Intrinsic hand muscle strength through resistive playdough activities
• Pincer grasp and finger isolation with small object placement
• Hand strength and endurance using graded resistance
• Visual motor integration through structured tracing tasks
• Pre-writing skills that support pencil control and fluency

Each activity is purposeful.
Each task is selected to build the foundational skills required for everyday independence and school readiness 📚

If your child tires quickly when writing, struggles to control a pencil, avoids fine motor tasks or finds dressing difficult, occupational therapy can provide targeted support.

Two years with Nic 🤍

Today we’re celebrating Nicole Caro and the incredible contribution she has made to over the past two years 🪅

Nicole is a registered psychologist and primary teacher with over 20 years of experience in psychology. Her depth of knowledge, combined with her calm and compassionate nature, makes such a difference to the individuals and families she supports every day.

Nicole works across anxiety, depression, behavioural and learning difficulties, eating disorders and trauma related concerns. She also has extensive experience supporting neurodiverse clients, including those with ADHD and ASD. She draws on a range of evidence based therapies to help clients better understand their challenges, build confidence and create meaningful change in their lives.

What we admire most is the way Nicole makes people feel safe. Safe to share their story. Safe to be heard. Safe to grow 🙏

She is not only an experienced clinician, but a wonderful mum of six, a loyal friend and a valued member of our team. Her warmth, steady presence and genuine care reflect everything we stand for at Total Health Orange.

Nic, thank you for the way you show up for our community. We are so grateful you are part of our team.

Please join us in congratulating Nicole on two years with THO ✨

What does occupational therapy look like in a school setting?

Our founder and director, Sarah Davis, is delivering occupational therapy workshops to local schools across Orange NSW and beyond, helping teachers and parents better understand child regulation, dysregulation and practical classroom strategies.

These sessions focus on:

• Recognising signs of dysregulation in children
• Understanding sensory and emotional regulation
• Practical occupational therapy strategies for classrooms
• Tools that can also be used at home

As an Occupational Therapist, Sarah’s goal is to support children, empower teachers and strengthen families within our community.

Occupational therapy is not just clinic based. It can make a meaningful difference within the school system when educators feel confident and informed.

If your school, preschool or early learning centre in Orange NSW would like an occupational therapy workshop, contact Total Health Orange today.

Supporting children. Supporting families. Strengthening our community.

Big emotions can feel overwhelming; for children and for parents.

Emotional regulation is not about “good” or “bad” behaviour. It’s about skills that are still developing.

If your child struggles with:
• Coping with change
• Managing big reactions
• Identifying or expressing feelings
• Avoiding situations that feel too much

You are not alone… and you are not failing 🫶

Occupational Therapy focuses on building practical, everyday strategies that support emotional regulation, confidence and independence in the home and school settings.

With the right support, children can learn to understand their feelings, manage transitions, and feel more secure in their world.

If this resonates with you, we’re always happy to have a conversation.

Fidgets in school… 🤔 yes, they can absolutely help.

At , our occupational therapists and specialists often talk with parents and teachers about how to use fidgets effectively in the classroom.

When chosen carefully and used with purpose, fidgets can support attention, reduce anxiety and assist children with ADHD and sensory processing needs.

They’re not toys, they’re tools. And like any tool, they work best with the right guidance.

We’ve written a blog breaking down how and when fidgets can be beneficial for students in Orange NSW.

✨ Fidgets are now available in clinic… Pop in during your next session to find the right one for your child.

And remember. You’ll find us on the corner of Dora & William St, Orange NSW 📍
