Protac Ball Cushion® for highchair
Sensory-stimulating ball cushion for a highchair
Protac Ball Cushion® for highchair is available with 2,5 cm and 3,8 cm balls for seats size 29x45 cm, and with 3,8cm balls for seat size 36x45 cm. The cushion is attached with two buckles that are fastened under the seat.
The model with 3.8 cm balls gives the strongest stimulation due to the deeper dynamic touch-pressure and the increased movement in the pillow. This is recommended for people with physical unrest, ADHD, and psychiatric disorders. The 3.8 cm balls are also recommended for diaper wearers, so the pressure can be felt despite the extra layer.
The model with 2.5 cm balls gives a milder stimulation, as the balls give less deep touch-pressure and less movement in the pillow. This is recommended for people with tactile defensiveness, low BMI or those who are tender-skinned.

CASES
6-year-old girl with ADHD
Has difficulty concentrating and sitting still on a chair. She often sits on her knees on the chair or lies on the table twisting and turning her body. Observed effect of the Protac Ball Cushion®. From the first day, the girl can sit much more calmly. After a few days, it is evident that she can both concentrate for a longer period and sit quietly on her chair. Now she no longer lies on the table. The girl can even sense that the ball-cushion is doing her good. When she arrives in the morning, she is usually the first to sit in her seat. Should she play computer or sit somewhere other than usual, she brings her chair and ball-cushion with her.
2 boys with severe motor unrest
The pediatric therapist places the ball cushion on the seat of the chair as well as under their feet. It has a surprisingly positive effect on the boys' sitting position, on their ability to sit still and on their concentration. The school uses the Protac Ball Blanket® during the classroom teaching, at lunchtime, as well as during the activities where the children must sit still and focus their attention on the task.
