To provide a stretching instrument effective for alleviating and preventing the unevenness of the neck, shoulder, back, waist and the like so as to enable stretching motion without strongly pressing the vicinity of the rear portion of the neck.A tubular or cylindrical distal end portion 3 linearly extending from both sides of the intermediate portion 2 is provided. The intermediate portion 2 is curved in a forward direction A first intermediate portion 2b bent so as to open to both sides obliquely forward from the central portion and a second intermediate portion 2d bent so as to open obliquely rearward from both ends of the first intermediate portion 2b, The angle between the first intermediate portion 2 b and each second intermediate portion 2 d is set to about 90 to 130 degrees and each of the tip portions 3 linearly extends from the front end side of each second intermediate portion 2 d in the left-, Slightly bent so as to point slightly toward the obliquely front side and both sides of the rear part of the neck part are brought into contact with the front side of the first intermediate part 2 b so as to place the intermediate part 2 on the shoulder part and the both arms Is placed on the top end side of each tip portion 3 from the rear side.(FIG.【課題】首の後部付近を強く圧迫することなくストレッチ運動できるようにして、首、肩、背中、腰などのこりの緩和や予防に効果的なストレッチ器具を提供する。【解決手段】パイプ状又は円柱状の中間部2と、該中間部2の両側からそれぞれ直線的に延びるパイプ状又は円柱状の先端部3とを備え、中間部2は、前方側へ湾曲した中央部から斜め前方両側へ開くように曲げられた第1中間部2bと、該第1中間部2bの両側先端からそれぞれ斜め後方側へ開くように曲げられた第2中間部2dを有し、第1中間部2bと各第2中間部2dの角度を90度~130度程度とし、各先端部3は、各第2中間部2dの先端側から左右方向に対して直線的に延びており、若干斜め前方側を向くように少し曲げられ、中間部2を肩部の上に置くようにして第1中間部2bの前面側に首部の後部両側を接触させ、左右方向に広げた両腕を後方側から各先端部3の上部先端側に載せる。【選択図】図1
