ABSTRACT:
A body stretching exerciser in which head end and foot end traction units are connected with opposing vertical wall surfaces adjacent a floor and includes flexible bands encircling longitudinally spaced portions of a user's body when supine. A U-shaped member, connected with one wall by a resilient strand, has a strap around the perimeter of its bight portion forming a spreader disposing the end portions of the strap on either side of a user's head when connected with his neck or torso. A hoist or block and tackle, interposed between the other traction unit and the other adjacent wall, exerts a stretching action on the user's muscles and joints in accordance with operation of the hoist by the user of the exerciser.
