Chest and Calf Stretching Strap
The Chest/Calf Stretching Strap is an easy-to-use device designed to stretch the muscles called the pectoralis (pec) minor.
-
The pec minor connects the front of the ribs to the front of the shoulder and is responsible for pulling the shoulder girdle forward and down.
-
The device stretches the pec minor by gently pulling the shoulder blades back and up.
-
With more flexible chest muscles the back muscles are better able to hold their position which alleviates soreness and cramping in the back.
-
Foam-padded straps allow comfortable, slip-free positioning on the shoulders.
-
It's also designed to easily stretch the muscles of the calf - the gastrocnemius and soleus. Tight calves can lead to plantar fasciitis, heal spurs, calf injury and knee pain.
-
Stretches the extensor muscles of the neck which become tight as a result of forward head.
-
Constructed for heavy duty use and supports up to 300 lbs.
