Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil extenseur pour physiothérapie comprenant un dispositif de retenue (1) destiné à maintenir les pieds d'un patient et un dispositif de levage (2) au moyen duquel la position en hauteur du dispositif de retenue (1) peut être modifiée de sorte qu'un patient dont les pieds sont attachés au dispositif de retenue (1) puisse passer d'une position assise ou couchée à une position suspendue tête en bas. L'effet thérapeutique pouvant être obtenu grâce à la position suspendue est amélioré par un dispositif oscillant au moyen duquel le patient suspendu tête en bas par le dispositif de retenue peut être soumis à un mouvement de balancement vertical.
