    Abstract: The self-massage device of the present invention comprises an angled hook, two massage heads, an elongated shaft of sufficient length to serve as an efficient lever and to permit positioning of the massage heads at desired locations, and a handle that can serve as a fulcrum. The invented device massages and relieves tension and/or spasms when applied to the user's back, neck, legs, and hip area and used as described herein. Use of the device does not require the assistance of another person or device, and delivers a satisfying and effective massage to the target muscle or body area with minimal user effort. Importantly, the device creates a lever mechanical advantage in use that significantly multiplies the user's effort and transfers the multiplied effort to the targeted massage head.
