Abstract
A personal support apparatus includes a frame having an inner surface for supporting a forehead of a user while seated in a forward-leaning position. The frame has a hollow central region to receive the user's face when the user is seated in the forward-leaning position. The apparatus also includes a stand that includes a chest support arm and a pivot angle adjustment arm. The pivot angle adjustment arm is pivotably attached to a base, and a first end of the base is adjustably attached along at least a portion of the length of the chest support arm. The frame is pivotably attached to an end of the chest support arm. The height and angle of the frame are customizable by adjusting the length of the chest support arm and the length of the pivot angle adjustment arm. The apparatus can be configured in a stowed configuration for compact storage.
