An ingenious calf, shin and ankle rehabilitation and exerciser apparatus for engagement with the lower leg muscles and ankle comprising of a rigid sole plate member (12) having a sole plate protective pad 40 and affixed fastening sole straps (52) for securing foot to sole plate member (12), an attachable fulcrum heel ball member (18) for attaching to the bottom of heel section (16). Sole plate member (12) is pivotally attached to a rigid cross brace member (20) which is comprised of a fastening shin straps (50) affixed to a shin protective pad member (36) to secure the lower leg to a rigid pivoting back support member (22) that is pivotally engaged to cross brace member (20). Cross brace (20) engages the toe section (14) of sole plate member (12) via an engaging biasing resistance means (48) that provides posterior and anterior resistance not limited to isotonic and isometric for the flexing of the foot and ankle not limited to dorsi-flexion, plantar-flexion, inversion or eversion. The invention also provides a means for immobilizing and supporting the foot in a relation substantially at a right angle to the lower leg for walking or rehabilitation.
