By means of the main body 10 and the seat 20, the pelvic calibrating exercise device 1 according to the present invention provides pelvic rotation and pelvic rolling motion. The pelvic rotational motion refers to a movement of the pelvic rectus movement device 1 in the rotational direction with respect to the vertical axis at the center. Therefore, the pelvic rotational motion can be performed at 360 degrees. In addition, the pelvic rolling motion refers to a motion in which the pelvic rolling motion is returned to its original position by the restoring force of the pelvic rectus movement device 1 after inclining forward, backward, leftward and rightward of the pelvic rectus movement device 1.

At both ends of the main body 10, a main body supporting portion (not shown) extending in a diagonal direction toward the ground is preferably formed. Even if the main body portion 10 is excessively rolled by the main body supporting portion, the main body portion 10 can be restored to the initial position stably without being rolled over. The main body supporting portion is preferably made of an elastic material, more preferably an elastic rubber.

A far-infrared ray irradiating unit 50 is formed on the lower side of the seat 20. Preferably, the seat portion 20 is divided into four regions that are equally divided, and the far-infrared ray irradiating portion 50 may be formed at a portion corresponding to each region. When the user is seated on the pelvic calibrating exercise device 1, the far-infrared ray irradiating part 50 provides a fomenting effect and a warming effect. Thus, in addition to the stimulation of the somatosensory sense of the pelvic rectus movement device 1 to be described later, various sensory stimuli are provided to the user, so that the user can perform an effective pelvic correction exercise.
