BODY TRACTION DEVICE ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Disclosed is a therapeutic device by the use of which a person may hang in an upside-down posture, with the spine straight, and in complete relaxation. The device has a tilting table, with a knee platform on which the person first kneels; a thigh platform against which he next rests his thighs; and a torso platform for supporting his chest as he leans forwards. A handle is used to control tilting of the table to freely hanging, or any intermdiate inverted, position. Relaxation while hanging is achieved by the provision of behind-the-knee restraint, which comprises a pad that fits in the crook of the bent knee. This restraint allows the body weight to be taken entirely by the thighs without the thighs being pulled off the thigh platform by the weight of the torso. The device is adjustable in various ways to suit the individual.
