A knee extension apparatus for use to decrease flexure contraction of the knee of the user includes a frame having opposite sides and a handle portion. A first strap is assembled to the frame and extends between opposite sides. A second strap is assembled to the frame and extends between opposite sides. A third strap, also assembled to the frame and extending between opposite sides, is specifically positioned to be proximal to the knee of the user. In order to position the third strap in this location the length of the frame must be extended consistent with the method of use.
