ABSTRACT:
An exercise and physical therapy device for a human anatomical part (e.g. a foot and ankle) has a base plate; a support plate is pivotally mounted on the base plate. An elevating latch mechanism latches the support member at one of several angular positions relative to the base plate. An adjustable, resilient torsion device, capable of both twisting and bending motion, has one end affixed to the support member; a connection member, for connection to the human anatomical part, is mounted on the other end of the torsion device.
