1. A spinal therapy device comprising: (a) a belt for fastening around a user's lumbar region, the belt comprising a belt fastening assembly for detachably securing the effective ends of the belt together;(b) a length-adjustable anchor strap including a first end and a second end, the first end forming a loop and coupling to the belt through the loop, the loop maintained by securing a portion of the strap on one side of the belt to a portion of the strap on the other side of the belt by stitching, a hook and loop fastener, an adjustable slide, a fixed threading plate, or one or more snaps, the loop thereby transversely encircling the belt enabling the anchor strap to hang from the belt, the second end comprising an anchor member effective to receive a user's foot; and(c) a first and a second resistance member, each slidably coupled to the belt at one end and comprising a handle at the other end. 2. The spinal therapy device of claim 1, wherein the belt comprises leather, nylon, canvas, rubber, plastic, cotton, polyvinyl chloride, polyester or polypropylene or a combination thereof. 3. The spinal therapy device of claim 1, wherein the belt fastening assembly comprises a quick-release buckle and an adjustable slide or fixed threading plate, and wherein each end of the belt is inserted through a slot on a member of the quick-release buckle, then secured to a portion of the corresponding uninserted section by stitching, a hook and loop fastener, the adjustable slide or fixed threading plate, or one or more snaps. 4. The spinal therapy device of claim 1, wherein the resistance members are coupled to the belt through one or more connectors. 5. The spinal therapy device of claim 4, wherein the one or more connectors comprise a ring, flexible loop, clip, snap, hook, buckle or any combination thereof. 6. The spinal therapy device of claim 5, wherein the flexible loop is made of the same material as the belt. 7. The spinal therapy device of claim 4, wherein the one or more connectors comprises metal, leather, canvas, rubber, plastic, polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, polyester or a combination thereof. 8. The spinal therapy device of claim 1, wherein the anchor member comprises a loop effective to engage a user's foot. 9. The spinal therapy device of claim 8, wherein the loop is formed by stitching the end of the anchor strap to another portion of the anchor strap thereby forming a loop having an opening effective to engage a user's foot. 10. The spinal therapy device of claim 1, wherein the handle of the resistance member is formed by securing the end portion of the resistance member to another portion to form a loop. 11. The spinal therapy device of claim 1, wherein each resistance member comprises a loop at one end that transversely encircles the belt thereby coupling the resistance member to the belt, wherein the loop is formed by securing an end portion of the resistance member to another portion. 12. A spinal therapy device comprising: (a) a belt for fastening around a user's lumbar region, the belt comprising a belt fastening assembly for detachably securing the effective ends of the belt together;(b) a length-adjustable anchor strap including a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is coupled to the belt, and the second end comprises an anchor member comprising a loop effective to receive a user's foot, the loop including a section encased in a rigid material; and(c) a first and a second resistance member, each slidably coupled to the belt at one end and comprising a handle at the other end. 13. The spinal therapy device of claim 12, wherein the material comprises polyurethane, plastic, rubber, ethylene vinyl acetate or a combination thereof. 14. The spinal therapy device of claim 12, wherein the anchor strap, resistance members or anchor strap and resistance members are coupled to the belt through one or more connectors. 15. The spinal therapy device of claim 14, wherein the one or more connectors comprise a ring, flexible loop, clip, snap, hook, buckle or any combination thereof. 16. The spinal therapy device of claim 14, wherein the one or more connectors comprises metal, leather, canvas, rubber, plastic, polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, polyester or a combination thereof. 17. A spinal therapy device, comprising: (a) a belt for fastening around a user's lumbar region, the belt comprising a belt fastening assembly for detachably securing the effective ends of the belt together;(b) a length-adjustable anchor strap, one end coupled to the belt, the other end comprising an anchor member effective to receive a user's foot; and(c) a first and a second resistance member, each resistance member including a first end and a second end, the first end slidably coupled to the belt, the second end comprising a handle formed by securing the end portion of the second end to another portion of the resistance member to form a loop, the loop including a section encased in a rigid material to facilitate grip. 18. The spinal therapy device of claim 17, wherein the material comprises polyurethane, plastic, rubber, ethylene vinyl acetate or a combination thereof. 19. The spinal therapy device of claim 17, wherein each resistance member comprises a loop at one end that transversely encircles the belt thereby coupling the resistance member to the belt, wherein the loop is formed by securing an end portion of the resistance member to another portion. 20. The spinal therapy device of claim 17, wherein the anchor strap, resistance members or anchor strap and resistance members are coupled to the belt through one or more connectors.
