Purpose and function of the product
All Protac products are developed from the theory of sensory integration. The theory originates
in the USA and was developed by occupational therapist and psychologist A. Jean Ayres back

different sensory stimuli can be influenced through weight and pressure on the tactile sense
(sense of touch) in the skin and the proprioceptive sense (sense of movement) in muscles and
DE
joints. The pressure, movement and weight of the balls stimulate these particular senses.
