1. A body contour massage device which provides simultaneous pressure to the paraspinal regions of the back as therapy for people with excessive spinal curvature, comprising:

  • (a) a rigid base, and(b) one or more rows of rounded-top pressure nibs which graduate in height and have non-rounded ends wherein the length of said base is at least sufficient to extend from the base of the neck of a human to the top of the legs of a human and wherein said nibs reside in flat-bottomed holes in said base and where the non-rounded ends of said nibs are flat and removably connected to said base by means of hook and loop fasteners and wherein the lengths of said nibs are selected to provide a contour of said rounded-tops which is similar to the contour of the spine and with said hook and loop fastener materials which provide a cushion-like affect and allow the nibs to perform slight angular-tilting moveabilities in response to the gravitational forces of a human resting thereon.
