Choose Your Z-Vibe – Original or Plus

Both Z-Vibe models deliver gentle vibration through interchangeable therapy tips to provide targeted oral sensory input. The main difference is how much control you have over that vibration.

Option 1: Z-Vibe Original – Simple, Reliable & Effective

The trusted ARK Z-Vibe Original has been a favourite among therapists and families for over 20 years.

Its lightweight, slim design delivers one consistent level of gentle vibration, making it an excellent choice for everyday oral motor and feeding activities.

Key features:

• One consistent vibration intensity

• Slim, lightweight, pen-style handle

• Quiet and easy to use

• Simple twist-operated on/off mechanism

• Compatible with all ARK Z-Vibe interchangeable tips

• Ideal for those who prefer a straightforward therapy tool

Best for: Therapists, caregivers, and individuals looking for a simple, reliable introduction to vibrating oral motor tools.

Option 2: NEW Z-Vibe Plus – More Control, More Flexibility

Upgrade to the next generation of Z-Vibe therapy!

The NEW ARK Z-Vibe Plus takes everything people love about the Original and introduces greater control, flexibility, and customisation.

Featuring 3 vibration intensities and 2 vibration modes, the Plus allows therapists and caregivers to adjust sensory input according to individual preferences and responses.

Start with gentle vibration for someone sensitive to oral input, increase the intensity for those seeking stronger stimulation, or introduce pulsing vibration for rhythmic and engaging oral motor activities.

Key features:

• 3 vibration intensities: Low, medium, and high

• 2 vibration modes: Continuous or pulsing

• Up to 6 effective intensity options: The double-ended design provides different levels of vibration depending on which end is used

• Double-ended handle: Attach a therapy tip to each end for convenient switching between activities

• Easy push-button operation: No twisting required

• Memory function: Remembers the last vibration intensity used

• 30-minute automatic shut-off: Helps conserve battery life

• LED indicators: Display settings and automatically dim after 10 seconds

• Moisture-resistant design: Easy to clean and maintain

• Standard AAA battery: Convenient and easy to replace

• Compatible with all ARK Z-Vibe interchangeable tips

Best for: Therapists and caregivers who want greater flexibility when working with different sensory preferences, oral sensitivities, or changing therapy goals.

Z-Vibe Original vs Z-Vibe Plus – What's the Difference?

Good to know: The Z-Vibe Plus medium vibration setting is equivalent to the Original's standard vibration intensity. This means you can enjoy the familiar Z-Vibe sensation with the additional flexibility of gentler or stronger settings.

Both handles are compatible with ARK's extensive range of 45+ Z-Vibe tip attachments.

What's Included in Your Z-Vibe Starter Kit?

Each kit includes one Z-Vibe handle of your choice plus the following six therapeutic attachments:

1. Bite-n-Chew XL Tip – For guided biting, chewing, and jaw activities.

2. Soft Brush Tip – Soft bristles for gentle oral stimulation and sensory exploration.

3. Preefer Tip – For targeted oral sensory input to the lips, cheeks, gums, and tongue.

4. Textured Bite-n-Chew XL Tip – Adds tactile feedback during chewing and jaw activities.

5. Small Spoon Tip – For introducing small amounts of food and practising feeding skills.

6. Large Spoon Tip – For feeding activities and practising lip closure around a spoon.

Also included: A protective hard-case storage box for keeping your therapy equipment organised.

Please note: The storage case supplied may differ from the one shown in the product photographs.

Important: You are purchasing ONE Z-Vibe handle (Original or Plus), not both. All six listed therapy tips are included regardless of which handle you select.
