The Protac GroundMe® cushion can help ADHD and autism sufferers with relaxation and
concentration. Children with ADHD and autism in particular benefit from using the cushion to
reach the ground with their feet when sitting on a chair, creating calm in the body to allow
them to concentrate on school work.
The Protac GroundMe® cushion is used for sufferers of a range of development problems, sen-
sory problems, deaf/blindness and to create enhanced sensory stimuli in the body.
Protac GroundMe® is used by elderly sufferers of restless legs syndrome. The movement of the
feet over the balls gives multiple sensory stimulation, providing more feeling in the feet.
The Protac GroundMe® cushion can be used in institutions, sheltered housing, day centres, hospi-
tals, patient lounges and private homes. The product is used in schools in the classroom and asso-
DK
ciation areas. At home, Protac GroundMe® can be used in a bedroom, the dining room or lounge.
