wish this was still available
Its now almost 2013 and I've been using this when occassionally my back acts up for the past 6 years.  No problems.  Its not a comforting massage.  Its like having someone beat on you.  But it works wonders on my back when it stiffens up.  I was going to buy this for my dad....and disapointed that it is no longer available.
