Abstract:
A muscle stretching apparatus includes a main loop configured from at least one strap and a handle member within the loop. A foot-rest portion is situated along the loop generally opposite the handle member and, in at least one embodiment, carries a foot saddle fabricated from a durable and flexible material configured to wrap around a portion of a user's foot as the foot exerts force thereon. A strap-constricting device carried by the loop renders the muscle stretching apparatus selectively transfigurable between a first configuration defining the single main loop and a second configuration defining, by selective constriction of the main loop with the strap-constricting device, an upper loop including the handle member and a lower loop including the foot saddle. The handle is variously configured to include a grip and a rolling end cap that rotate relative to one another for implementation in myofascial release and trigger point therapy.

Claim (Index 16):
The muscle stretching apparatus of  claim 15  wherein the handle member includes at least one removable end cap which, when removed, opens the loop such that the handle member can be axially inserted into and through a cylindrical roller through which there is defined a handle-receiving bore configured for receiving the handle, the handle being greater in axial length than the handle-receiving bore such that the removable end cap can be secured to the handle member in order to retain the cylindrical roller about the handle member.
