The therapy device comprises a deflection tube and a handle, which are rotably disposed so as to be mutually perpendicular or parallel to one another. The deflection tube is made of transparent plastic or glass. It is semi-circular, closed on both ends, and filled with a transparent liquid that contains a freely floating bubble or ball, which acts as an indicator. When the handle is rotated, the indicator floats away from the center of the deflection tube toward one of its ends. The tube is marked at regular intervals with indicia, preferably numerals, which quantify the degree of deflection of the indicator toward an end of the tube, with higher numbers corresponding to greater deflection and hence greater rotation of the handle.
