We present a novel anisotropic Heisenberg model in which the classical spin is restricted to a region of the unit sphere which depends on the value of the anisotropy parameter Δ. In the limit Δ→1, we recover the Ising model, and in the limit Δ→0, the isotopic Heisenberg model. Monte Carlo calculations are used to compare the critical temperature as a function of the anisotropy parameter for the restricted and unrestricted models, and finite-size scaling analysis leads to the conclusion that for all Δ>0 the model belongs to the Ising universality class. For small A the critical behavior is clearly seen in histograms of the transverse and longitudinal (z) components of the magnetization.
