ABSTRACT:
A therapeutic apparatus is provided including a base having a bottom plate and a plurality of top plates. A top surface of the bottom plate is equipped with a plurality of recessed channels formed therein. The plurality of top plates are mounted to the top surface of the bottom plate. A rotating foot mount is provided. A carriage assembly is mounted to a bottom end of a cylindrical post of the rotating foot mount. The housing of the carriage assembly is slidably situated within one of the recessed channels of the base. A spherical ball of the carriage assembly is rollable within the recessed channels. The cylindrical post of the rotating foot mount extends upwardly above the base. The rotating foot mount is slidable along the recessed channels of the base. A plurality of stopper assemblies are each situated at an intersection of the recessed channels. A shaft of each of the stopper assemblies is movable to a raised orientation for blocking the corresponding recessed channel. In such raised orientation, the shaft prevents movement of the rotating foot mount and carriage assembly within the recessed channels.
