It seems that because you stay on the floor, you don’t have your whole body weight pulling on the spine and injuring those little deep muscles as happened on the tilt table.

It works! I’m using this for spinal decompression therapy, hoping to avoid back surgery for a herniated disk, and spending about 5-15 minutes on it every day. It’s a lot more intense than it looks, but has effectively stretched and stabilized my spine so that I’ve gone from being unable to bend forward without sciatica to being able to place my hands flat on the ground in a forward fold with legs straight and no pain.
Worth a try I like the concept, but the size isn’t perfect. I found it difficult to do crunches as the arch is a bit too high, and the base too narrow for me. If it was maybe 50% bigger (maybe about 18″) and had slightly deeper “nubs”, it might be better for back massaging/stretching. I like the firm feel and the bright green color is ugly, but relatively unimportant. The quality is decent; note that the rubber backing started fraying after a month, but it lasted about a year before…
