A door handle is capable of rotating along its longitudinal axis from a first stop to a second stop with a person's elbow or arm pushing force. At the second stop, the door handle provides an accessible elbow/arm landing area so that the person can continuously exert elbow/arm pushing force on the door handle in the direction of about 45 degree apart from the door surface, and thus generate a torque for opening the door without using a hand. There is a self closing means for self returning the door handle from second stop to first stop upon releasing elbow/arm pushing force. The door handle is normally retained at first stop by a biases spring force.
