ARK Therapeutic - Z-Vibe Plus Adjustable Vibrating Oral Motor Tool

The ARK Therapeutic Z-Vibe Plus is an adjustable vibrating oral motor tool designed for use in speech, feeding and oral sensory activities. With three vibration intensity levels and smooth or pulsing modes, it allows therapists and caregivers to select different levels of sensory input according to each individual's needs.

Whether used during a professional therapy session or as part of a therapist-guided home programme, the Z-Vibe Plus offers greater flexibility than the original Z-Vibe. Its slim, textured handle, interchangeable attachments and easy-to-use controls make it a versatile tool for a range of oral motor activities.

Personalised Sensory Input with Adjustable Vibration

No two individuals experience oral sensory input in quite the same way. The Z-Vibe Plus provides three vibration intensities—low, medium and high—along with smooth and pulsing vibration modes, allowing the level and pattern of stimulation to be adjusted during use.

This flexibility can be particularly useful when working with different sensory preferences or following an individualised oral motor therapy programme. A built-in memory function remembers the previous setting, so it is easy to return to a familiar level of vibration.

Includes a Textured Massage Tip

The Z-Vibe Plus comes with ARK's green Massage Tip, which features raised bumps and ridges for tactile oral stimulation. The textured surface can be used during therapist-directed activities involving oral sensory exploration and awareness.

The tool also features a double-ended design, allowing compatible ARK attachments to be fitted at either end for different activities.

Adaptable for Speech and Feeding Therapy

One of the advantages of the Z-Vibe Plus is its compatibility with ARK's extensive range of interchangeable Z-Vibe tips. Depending on the attachments selected and the guidance of a qualified professional, it can be incorporated into activities addressing:

• Oral sensory awareness and exploration
• Lip and tongue movement activities
• Jaw movement and control exercises
• Biting and chewing practice
• Feeding therapy activities

Different attachments, including probes, textured tips and spoon attachments, allow the same handle to be used across a variety of activities. Additional Z-Vibe tips are available separately.

Designed for Practical Everyday Use

The Z-Vibe Plus has a lightweight, textured handle that is comfortable to grip and easy to position. Subtle light indicators provide visual feedback, while the automatic shut-off feature adds convenience during therapy sessions.

Powered by a standard AAA battery, the Z-Vibe Plus is portable and suitable for use in therapy settings or at home when recommended by a treating professional.

Safety and Cleaning

The Z-Vibe Plus is a therapeutic tool, not a toy. It must be used under direct supervision by a therapist or caregiver. Follow the advice of a qualified speech pathologist, occupational therapist or feeding therapist when selecting activities and attachments.

Inspect the tool and attachments before each use and discontinue use if any damage or wear is visible. Compatible removable tips should be cleaned according to their individual care instructions. Wipe the electronic handle with a disinfectant wipe; do not immerse it in water.
