A spinal therapy apparatus (10) including at least one gripping member (26) whose direction deviates from the transverse direction relative to the spinal column, so that the angle between said gripping member and the midline of the spinal column is less than 90~. A gripping member unit (20) comprising most preferably two said gripping members (26), the angle between the ridges of said gripping members being less than 180~. There is a gap or groove (27) between said gripping members (26). Said gripping member unit (20) of the spinal therapy apparatus includes, in addition to said gripping members (26), also a support part (28), on which the user of the spinal therapy apparatus can support him/herself, and said support part being padded, most preferably comprised of two parts and in an inclined position relative to the floor level (15). Most preferably, there is a groove (64) between said gripping member (26) and said support part (28). Said spinal therapy apparatus may also incorporate at least one support handle (30), a pair of support handles or a similar arrangement, which the user of the spinal therapy apparatus can grip, rest on, lean on or hang from in order to move the required part of the spinal column (45) to the ridges (26a, 26b) of said gripping members of said gripping member unit (20). |
