Abstract:
1. A leg stretching apparatus, comprising: an elevation mechanism resting; an elevation structure mounted to said elevation mechanism for lifting and lowering said elevation structure; a first leg support member having a proximal end that is pivotally connected to said elevation structure and a distal end that extends outward from said elevation structure, the distal end slidably rests on a support surface such that when the elevation structure is raised or lowered, the first leg support member pivoting in relation to the elevation structure; and a second leg support member having a proximal end that is pivotally connected to said elevation structure and a distal end that extends outward from said elevation structure, the distal end slidably rests on a support surface such that when the elevation structure is raised or lowered, the first leg support member pivoting in relation to the elevation structure; such that operation of said elevation mechanism in one direction lifts said elevation structure such that said first leg support member and said second leg support member pivot progressively downwardly from said elevation structure, and operation of said elevation mechanism in another direction lowers said elevation structure such that said first leg support member and said second leg support member pivot progressively upwardly from said elevation structure.
