A roller therapy apparatus is provided which enables the user to engage a spherical shaped roller element with various body muscle groups. The apparatus includes a frame structure means, a roller engagement means, and a roller structure means. The frame structure means comprises a base frame structure with a user support member mounted thereon and having an opening. The roller structure means comprises a base roller structure with a roller support member rigidly mounted thereon. The base roller structure mounts to the base frame structure of the frame structure means, while the roller support member rotatably receives and supports the spherical roller element of the roller engagement means. The roller structure means is mounted to said frame structure means such that at least a portion of the spherical roller element extends through the opening of the user support means, above its top surface. The user operates the apparatus by positioning themselves upon the user support member and engaging with various muscle groups the portion of the spherical roller element which extends above the top surface. The spherical roller element will exert a force or pressure against the muscle group which is pressed against it. The roller structure means may be adjusted and secure at different intervals along the base frame structure of the frame structure means so that the elevation of the portion of the spherical roller element which is extended above the surface of the user support member may be varied. The frame structure means may also have a collapseable feature so that the apparatus may be more easily stored and transported. A wheel assembly may also be included to assist in storage and transport.
