Erler Zimmer Arm and Leg Skeleton Kit with Muscle Markings

The Erler Zimmer Arm and Leg Skeleton Kit with Muscle Markings is a comprehensive educational solution for studying the upper and lower limbs. The set includes an arm skeleton with the shoulder girdle and a leg skeleton with the pelvis, both made as accurate anatomical casts and enhanced with muscle markings indicating the main areas of origin and insertion.

This kit is particularly well-suited for courses in anatomy, physical therapy, osteopathy, exercise science, medicine, and healthcare education, as it allows for an immediate understanding of the relationship between bony structures, joints, and muscle insertions.

Functional Study of the Upper Limb

The model of the arm skeleton with the shoulder girdle faithfully reproduces a human upper limb. It allows for the demonstration of pronation and supination of the forearm bones and the main movements of the wrist. The hand is mounted on a movable wire, making the model even more useful during practical demonstrations.

The shoulder girdle is removable, a feature that facilitates observation of the anatomical relationships between the scapula, clavicle, and upper limb. Muscle markings help to clearly visualize the points of origin and insertion of the most important muscles.

Detailed Study of the Lower Limb

The leg skeleton model with half-pelvis is a natural cast of a human lower limb. The model can be disassembled into the femur, tibia, and fibula, as well as the foot and removable half-pelvis, thus allowing for a more in-depth study of the individual bone components and their anatomical relationships.

Here as well, the muscle markings make the model particularly useful for understanding the organization of the musculoskeletal system and for practically linking descriptive anatomy with functional anatomy.

Muscle Markings Designed for Education

Both models feature a labeling system developed specifically for the needs of physical therapy education. Muscle origins are highlighted in red, while muscle insertions are highlighted in blue. This approach makes studying more intuitive and assists students and instructors during explanations, exercises, and reviews.

Teaching is even more effective because the markings were developed in collaboration with faculty from a physical therapy school and are accompanied by a guide structured in a way that is particularly suited to students in the field of rehabilitation.

Ideal for universities, schools, and professional training

Thanks to the combination of upper and lower limbs, this kit allows for a coordinated study of the main peripheral bone structures, joints, and muscle attachments. It is therefore an excellent choice for educational laboratories, university classrooms, professional practices, and training centers.

The kit includes

• 1 upper arm skeleton with shoulder girdle and muscle markings (Erler Zimmer 6021)
• 1 lower leg skeleton with pelvis and muscle markings (Erler Zimmer 6070)

This product is intended for medical and anatomical education. It is not a toy.
