An exercise therapy device enables a physically handicapped or aged person to smoothly and continuously perform a pedaling exercise according to the level of his physical strength without overextending himself or herself when he or she undergoes an exercise therapy, to thereby recover his or her exercise function and maintain his or her physical strength. The device is simple in construction, compact in size, light in weight, and can be manufactured at low cost by using only a single actuator which acts as both a load device and an assisting force generating device. The device comprises a drive portion adapted to be manually moved by an exerciser, an actuator connected to the drive portion through a power transmission mechanism, and a control unit for causing the actuator to operate as a load device for providing a load to the drive portion and as an assisting device for providing an assisting force to the drive portion when the drive portion is manually moved by the exerciser.
