Abstract

A stretch therapy apparatus is disclosed which provides for enhanced physical fitness as well as rehabilitation and medical treatment. The stretch therapy apparatus includes both a leg stretching component and an arm and back stretching component. The leg stretching component allows the user to easily and safely separate his or her legs by 180 DEG or more using hand crank or motorized mechanisms. Sliding leg deck construction reduces the pressure on the user's knees during leg stretching exercises. The arm and back stretching component allows the user to maintain his or her arms and back muscles in a fully extended position without applying undue force during stretching. The arm and back stretching component includes a platform on which the user is seated and a stretching pole which can be selectively oriented in three dimensional space relative to the user's waist. In one configuration, the user grasps a handle bar that moves along the length of the stretching pole and is held in position when the user's arms are fully extended. Alternatively, in another configuration, the user grasps one pair of a plurality of ladder like rungs positioned incrementally along the length of the stretching pole.
