100 in stock

A 256 Hz tuning fork is another commonly used tool in medical examinations, particularly for assessing neurological function. Here’s what makes it useful:

  1. Neurological Exams: The 256 Hz tuning fork is effective in testing vibratory sensation, especially for detecting neuropathy or nerve damage in conditions like diabetes. It is usually applied to bony areas, such as the ankles or wrists, where patients can perceive vibrations well.

  2. Hearing Tests: While not as common as the 512 Hz tuning fork for hearing assessments, the 256 Hz fork can still be used in Rinne and Weber tests, especially when examining bone conduction due to its lower frequency.

The lower frequency of 256 Hz creates a stronger vibratory sensation, which is often useful for detecting subtle differences in sensory perception.
