Abstract: A ramped and horizontal stretching bench for relieving spinal and muscle conditions contributing to back pain. More particularly a stretching bench that has moveable and adjustable settings for increasing the effectiveness of such relief. An arm brace and hand grip assembly is located under a horizontal bench portion that receives and supports a user's upper torso. The arm brace is readily adjustable as stretching exercises are on-going and without the user leaving the bench proper. Additional bench adjustments provide an individualized height setting, and these combined adjustments allow the bench to be personalized for each given individual in order to increase the effectiveness of certain on-the-bench stretching activities.
