An apparatus and method for rehabilitating a lower leg muscle provides therapy for the lower leg muscle by simultaneously stretching the lower leg muscle and soaking the lower leg muscle in a therapeutic solution. This dual action therapy results in treatment of calf strains and/or Achilles tendon tears and the like. The apparatus includes a lower leg stretching component and a therapeutic soaking component. A synergy is created between the two components that addresses different anatomical considerations for the lower leg. Both the stretching and soaking components are performed inside a container. The stretching component includes a plate on which the foot rests. The plate pivots on a fulcrum. A strap passes around the plate and is pulled at the front end to stretch the lower leg muscle. The leg muscle provides resistance to the pulling action. A therapeutic solution fills the container, such that the stretching and soaking are performed simultaneously.
