Abstract:
A therapeutic-exercise pillow is disclosed that facilitates exercises to be performed for general health and fitness, particularly in embodiments that incorporate resistance bands for the user's arms and legs, in order to strengthen and tone the body of side lay, supine, and prone positions. In many embodiments, the overall shape of the therapeutic-exercise pillow resembles a teardrop that is flattened on one side (the side that is intended to rest on the floor), and has strategic internal foam/padding layering and placement to help support the lower abdominal regions of persons with physiological and/or medial limitations that otherwise preclude exercising such regions. In some embodiments, a plurality of adjustable exercise-resistance members for arms and/or legs are removably attached to the therapeutic-exercise pillow.
