Abstract: A portable lower limb therapy device having a support base and a pulley system. The support base includes a platform member fixably mounted on top of a slider and a heel panel positioned behind the platform member. The heel panel, which sits orthogonally relative to the platform member, is attached to the slider so as to extend from the rear end of the slider. The pulley system defines a closed force transfer system that is integrated with the support base. The pulley system employs a cord member, a support member, a cross member, and two handles and is configured to transfer force applied behind the heel panel to the platform member as well as force applied above a user's foot that is positioned on top of the platform member to the platform member.

Abstract: A wearable anchor having a support base, a locking mechanism, and a securing strap and which can be used to mechanically fix a therapy device a desired position relative to a user while performing desired therapy motions. The support base defines an arcuate body suitable to be placed against the thigh of the user, with the securing strap operating to hold it against the user's thigh. The locking mechanism employs a pair of slots positioned above the support base. In this regard, the locking mechanism provides a securing structure to which the cords can be fastened to, thereby allowing the therapy device to be fixed in place without requiring that the user manually hold the therapy device in place. As such, the user can more easily perform therapy motions which require the that the therapy device be held in place, such as static progressive stretch therapy motions.
