Abstract: A back stretching chair is presented. It comprises a generally rectangular base having fore and aft ends. A back rest member has top and bottom ends and is rotatably coupled by its bottom end to the aft end of the base by rotating hinge means so that the back rest can rotate about the aft end of the base. A moving seat is coupled above and parallel to the base and is capable of moving fore and aft in relation to the base. Coupling means couple the back rest to the moving seat so that when the back rest is moved down, the seat moves forward and when the back rest is moved up, the seat moves back. Moving the seat forward stretches the back.
