ABSTRACT:
The disclosure describes a physiotherapeutic self-exerciser which enables a patient to apply himself traction to the muscles or tendons of his feet; the exerciser includes a sabot to which the patient's foot is attached and a pair of levers which are manually engageable by the patient; the patient gradually applies his weight to the levers connected to the sabot, thereby exerting an upward tension of the sabot, and the latter, combined with the flexing of the patient's knee, exerts a predetermined traction on the tendon or muscle to be treated.
