A device for stretching soft tissues and strengthening consisting of a frame that supports a first body segment and applies a dynamic force to a second body segment connected by a joint. The device employs custom-molded thermoplastic cuffs affixed to elastic tubing adjustable for tension and attached to the frame of the device. A custom-molded cuff that includes the digits addresses tightness affecting the muscle tendon units crossing the wrist. The attachment of the rubber tubing at the frame is also adjustable at its terminal end allowing adjustment for the angle of pull in relation to the joint treated.
