Three-dimensional stretching is needed to treat equinovarus, which deforms the patient's foot to plantarflexion, adduction, and inversion postures. We have prototyped a three-dimensional stretching machine that the patient can use for the treatment of equinovarus by him- or herself. By adopting a cable-driven mechanism with two independently controllable pneumatic actuators, the stretching machine can apply a force to the foot along the dorsiflexion direction as well as the direction combining abduction and eversion. In this study, we verified the effectiveness of a prototype stretching machine for healthy subjects. For evaluation, the muscle stiffness and maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) of plantarflexion were compared immediately before and after stretching and 10 min later. As a result, the MVC decreased after stretching, which is a clinical index for effective stretching.
