ABSTRACT:
A device for use in stimulating blood flow and providing stress relief. The device includes curved sides shaped to permit a user to rock back and forth on a flat surface. Five pair of handles are cut through the sides at various positions to help the user maintain a secure position while seated on the device and to facilitate aggressive modes of exercise. The handles are teardrop shaped to allow the user to select a gripping position wherein the gripping surface is generally perpendicular to the direction of pull. The device is designed to rock backwards and remain in that position, thereby placing the user in a supine position and raising the user's feet above his head. While so positioned, the user may perform many different exercises or may simply assume the supine position and rest while gravity drains the blood and fluid from her lower extremities. The user may also enjoy cardiovascular stimulation and stress relief when rocking the device.
