Claim 0:
1. A torso device comprising a body having a central opening interposed between a body front member and a body rear member integral with and opposite the front member, wherein the body front member includes a closed end that in a relaxed state is biased inwardly toward the body rear member, wherein the central opening is configured to accommodate placement of a user's torso therein by moving the closed end from the relaxed state to an energized state away from the body rear member under force to enable user entry into the central opening, wherein the torso device is configured to impose a compression force against the user's torso when placed in the central opening, wherein the body front and body rear members have surface areas that contact adjacent portions of the user's torso when placed in the central opening, and wherein the combination of surface area contact and compression force function to maintain a placement position of the torso device relative to the user's torso when the user moves from a sitting position to a standing position or when the user is walking, wherein the placement position is maintained without any additional support from the user's hands or arms, and wherein when in the placement position the body front member extends substantially perpendicular to the user' torso and/or substantially parallel to a floor on which the user is standing or walking, wherein the body front member comprises a first resilient material and a second resilient material, the first resilient material differing from the second resilient material, the first resilient material being disposed from a bottom surface of the body front member to the second resilient material and the second resilient material being disposed on top of the first resilient material to a top surface of the body front member;
wherein the body front and body rear members are each formed from the first and second resilient materials, wherein the first resilient material has a density from about 10 to 30 kg/m3 and a Shore A hardness from about 30 to 100 to thereby provide a desired increased degree of stiffness and rigidity as compared with the second resilient material, and the second resilient material has a density from about 5 to 25 kg/m3 and a Shore A hardness from about 15 to 50.
