If you’ve ever felt less anxious after a long hug or found that you’re most comfortable wrapped up in a duvet in bed, it’s likely that your body is seeking proprioceptive feedback. Deep Pressure & Weighted resources are designed to stimulate proprioceptive systems, calm nerves and help users feel calm, warm and comforted.
Weighted & Deep Pressure resources can also help restless users focus and concentrate as they physically feel situated in the moment; because of this, we’d recommend the items in this collection for use in schools, care homes, or for personal use at home.
This collection is particularly useful for users with autism, sensory processing disorders and dementia.

This Protac Sensit Chair has been specially designed and developed on theories of sensory integration. Pressure at trigger points from the Sensit's weighted plastic balls which fill the chairs seat, back and the special neck and side wings, stimulates tactile, muscle and joint sensation.
The footstool is used with the chair as a leg or foot support, or as a stand-alone chair for a child for example. The balls at the top of the footstool provide sensory stimulation, making it comfortable and fun to sit on.
The numerous sensory perceptions send impulses to the central nervous system, which has a soothing effect which then leads to greater bodily awareness and improved well-being.

Sand Balls invite users to estimate
weights by touching, balancing, and
throwing them.
