Adjustable pins extend outwardly from the ramped surface and can be used to relieve specific points of pain within a person's neck and feet. A pair of curved levers extend laterally of said ramp and may be pivoted downwardly to apply pressure to a person's shoulders and relieve musculo-skeletal tension within the top of the shoulder area. The entire device is compact and portable. It may be used comfortably at home or anywhere else.
