A device for assisting a person to assume a shoulder stand comprising a base member, said base member consisting of a horizontal planar seat portion and a vertical planar back portion positioned at substantially a 90°angle to each other, an arcuate portion connecting said horizontal and said vertical portions, said horizontal planar portion being shorter than said vertical portion and acting as a seat in the horizontal position and as a leg support in the vertical position, an upstanding side member on each side of said base member, each side member being the approximate length of said base member said side members having cut out portions therein to receive the shoulders of a user, a cushioning pad of the approximate length of said base member fitted between said side members and resting on said base member, at least one shaped member for insertion between said cushioning pad and said base member, at least one of said at least one shaped member being wedge shaped, said device being a seat when resting on its seat portion, and rotatable backwards 90°onto its back portion so that a person seated therein can assume a shoulder stand with the wedge shaped member being located between the backs of the thighs and the base member so that while lying on one\s back the extended legs assume a position backward slightly beyond vertical so as to maintain the shoulder stand position, and pivotally mounted support legs on said upstanding side members rotatable from a non-use position when said device is used on its back for a shoulder stand to a use position when used as a seat by extending back beyond the base so as to prevent rearward tilting.
