Protac® MyRest
Protac® MyRest is a multi-purpose body pillow filled with sensory-stimulating balls. The pillow is designed to alleviate symptoms from Restless Legs Syndrome and other symptoms of discomfort in the e.g. legs and back. The large balls in the pillow move slightly every time the user moves a little, and these deep and dynamic pressures on the body stimulate the proprioceptive and tactile senses. The stimulation of these senses enhances the awareness of the body and provides a sense of being secure, calm, lowers the body stress level, and alleviates physical and mental unrest.
The pillow features both a soft and an extra-soft side with a more modest stimulation. In this way, the user can choose and adjust to the needed stimulation.
How to use the pillow
Protac® MyRest is easy to use and can be moved to different areas of the body as needed. It is highly individual, how to use the pillow most efficiently. Many users with Restless Legs Syndrome benefit from reducing restlessness even before bedtime by sitting with the pillow under or between their legs and afterwards from sleeping with the pillow between their legs at night. We have seen similar good results for children and young people with growing pains in their legs.
This makes Protac® MyRest suitable for use both day and night. We also have positive experiences with the pillow when used to lean against in a sofa or armchair to relieve tension, pain, and discomfort in the back and shoulders. In this way, Protac® MyRest can be used alone or as a supplement to products like the Protac Ball Blanket® or Protac® BallBase.
