Overview
Mattress filled with balls that trains balance and brings calmness and relief to those with physical and mental disabilities.
Protac MyBase stimulates the sense of touch as well as the muscle and joint position senses, promoting calmness and improving body awareness. It is used for sense-stimulation and training/rehabilitation for all age groups, or as a secure base for properly positioning wheelchair users and people with spasticity, paralysis, developmental disorders or brain injuries.
Balance
Protac MyBase is suitable for training body awareness, muscle tone and balance. The user can lay, roll around, bounce and sit on the mattress and feel stimulation to their sensory system through the pressure of the balls. If the mattress is placed with its curved side down, it will rock slightly when moved, training the user's balance.
Supportive positioning that envelopes the body
Protac MyBase can be used to assist in positioning people with brain injuries who are afflicted with spasticity. The pressure of the balls alleviates spasticity and has a calming effect on the body. Protac MyBase can serve as an alternative for positioning wheelchair users or people with paralysis. Because the balls are distributed loosely, the user will sink down into the mattress a bit, which will then support and envelope the user's body. The airbed serves as a secure base where users can relax their muscles and calm down.
Recommended by specialists
Protac KneedMe is also used by therapists and specialists as an aid for motor skill training. The mattress is curved on one side to challenge and train the user's balance, while the other side is more stable and suitable for gentler treatment. Protac MyBase is also used in institutions, sensory rooms, therapy rooms and rehabilitation centres at hospitals and drop-in centres.
Design and size
Protac MyBase is an inflatable airbed and comes with an electric pump. On the top side of the mattress there are four large bags filled with loose plastic balls beneath an elastic top cover which zips the whole way around the mattress. The top and bottom of the mattress are different and can be used for training balance. Protac MyBase has carrying handles on each side making it easy to turn over and move around. Can be used by all age groups. Benefits those with ADHD, autism, deafblindness, balance problems, sensory neurological disorders and developmental disorders.
