Abstract
This invention comprises a mounted unit that combines the healing power of touch with functional, multi-faceted human engineering body manipulation and stress relief by incorporating the most basic principles of massage, acupressure, reflexology, rubbing/scratching, Shiatsu, and other health improvement techniques to provide the user with an easy-to-use, self-administrable stimulation experience. The unit contains a plurality of generally domed protrusions from each of which extends a nail-like rib running through the center of the domed surface, which perform the massaging experience when a user rubs his or her back against it at a pressure desirable to the user. The mounted unit can comprise a removable handheld unit that increases the body areas which can be massaged by the invention and a hinged door, behind which can be stored specialized attachments that are removably fastenable onto the protrusions for more focused massage.
