Abstract
A stretching machine includes a bench having at least one base members. A cam is coupled to the base member or one of the base members, if there is more than one. A stretching arm is coupled to the cam at one end and has an extremity attachment device at its other end. An actuator is coupled to at least one of the base members and is coupled to the cam. The actuator enables movement of the cam and the movement of the cam enables movement of the stretching arm. There is a control mechanism for controlling the actuator.
