A therapeutic device comprising a base, usually resting upon a floor, and a platform, usually located above the base that is maintained rigidly parallel to the base in a horizontal plane throughout up and down cycles. The platform is attached either with (a) pivotally attached arm(s) or by (b) freely operating sleeve(s) on to one or more vertical extensions or rigid attachments to/of the base. The platform, upon which the user is located, is moved up and down in a cycle initiated and maintained by the sustained activity of a spring suspension, or by, or in combination with, a motor driven reciprocal drive. This up and down cycle of accelerating and decelerating in line with extant gravitational pull occurs resultant strengthening of the body cells and organs, and stimulates circulation and body functions for the occupant user.
