Discrimination Tool

Keep an eye on your progress with the discrimination tool

In orthopedics and occupational therapy, the 2-point discrimination ability plays a central role. This measurement records your surface sensitivity – that is, the sensitivity and perceptive ability of your skin. It can be affected by misalignments, accidents or procedures.

With the ARTZT neuro discrimination tool, you can test your tactile sensitivity using five clearly defined measuring points. This not only makes your therapy progress measurable, but also comprehensible.

Traditionally, a Greulich star is often used for this measurement. However, we use a rectangular shape that makes it easier to use. You place the measuring points precisely and apply the correct pressure – intuitively.

The five measuring points come in a double pack and at different distances. This way, you can see at a glance how high or low your tactile sensitivity is, without having to adjust anything yourself.
