Pacinian corpuscles are responsible for the perception of rapid vibrations, such as those experienced when using a hand-held massager. These receptors are located in the skin and are sensitive to changes in pressure and vibration. Meissner corpuscles, Ruffini cylinders, and Merkel receptors are responsible for other types of sensory perception in the skin, such as light touch, stretching of the skin, and pressure.
