The ARK proFork Textured Fork for Feeding Therapy is a feeding fork with gentle bumps along the backside of the tines, designed to provide extra tactile input to the tongue and lower lip during mealtimes.

The proFork was designed by feeding therapist Debbie Lowsky, MS, CCC-SLP. It measures about 6 inches (15.2cm) long and 1 inch (2.5cm) at its widest point. It pairs well with the ARK Textured proSpoon for a matching feeding therapy set.

The fork is made from medical-grade material and manufactured at ARK's own factory in Columbia, South Carolina, USA, so quality and safety are checked throughout production. This is a therapeutic tool, intended for use by a therapist or caregiver, with direct supervision at all times.
