Abstract: A device is disclosed that provides for relaxation and back stretching. In particular, the device allows the user to assume a position similar to the prone fetal position, often referred to as the “balasana” or “child's pose” in yoga. The device provides additional advantages over traditional ways of assuming the “child's pose” by providing support for the user's body which relieves the stress caused at the point of contact between the floor and the user's feet, knees and ankles. A cavity is disposed for accommodating the user's face, allowing for comfortable breathing. Further, the facial cavity supports the user's head in such a way as to align the spine while stretching. The device of the invention utilizes gravity to enhance the stretch of the user's back and spine over the traditional “child's pose” without placing the user of the device in an unnatural or uncomfortable position.
