1. An arrangement for treatment of the back, said arrangement comprising: a base, said base having an upper surface with a low coefficient of friction sufficient to allow a user's posterior to slide/glide slightly without significant resistance, said base being arranged in a substantially horizontal arrangement;a backrest, said backrest being attached at a first end of said base, substantially perpendicular to said base, and in a substantially vertical arrangement;a footplate attached at a second end of said base, substantially perpendicular to said base, and in a substantially vertical arrangement; anda spring arrangement, wherein said spring arrangement is disposed against said backrest above said base so that when a user sits on said base, and presses against said footplate, the posterior of the user glides along said upper surface of said base with the lower back pressing against said spring arrangement, wherein said springs are selected to have a spring constant (k) so that a force of 222-889 Newtons results in compression of said springs more than 20% deflections and less than 80% deflection when a user presses their feet into said footplate forcing their lower back along said upper surface of said base into said spring arrangement. 2. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1, further comprising at least one extension rod that couples said footplate to said base. 3. The arrangement as claimed in claim 2, wherein said extension rod is adjustable in length. 4. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1, wherein said spring arrangement, includes a plurality of springs with compression axes arranged substantially parallel to the upper surface of said base and perpendicular substantially to said backrest. 5. The arrangement as claimed in claim 4, wherein said springs are a plurality of coiled springs. 6. The arrangement as claimed in claim 5, wherein said springs are in the range of AWG 18 through AWG 12.5. 7. The arrangement as claimed in claim 5, wherein said springs are selected from the group consisting of Bonnell coils, Marshall coils, Offset coils and Continuous coils. 8. The arrangement as claimed in claim 4, wherein said spring arrangement includes a surface pad having first and second regions for engaging a user's lower back, said surface pad having a vertically oriented spine notch between said first and second regions, configured as a depression between said regions. 9. The arrangement as claimed in claim 8, wherein said surface pad is dimensioned with a thickness such that it protects a user's back from said spring arrangement while being simultaneously thin enough so that the individual force of each spring may be felt through said surface pad, to achieve a massaging effect. 10. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a cover element attached to a top of said backrest for covering over said arrangement to a top of said footplate. 11. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1, wherein said spring arrangement has one or more polymer or elastomer inserts or wedges used in conjunction with said springs so as to increase their compression resistance. 12. The arrangement as claimed in claim 11, wherein said inserts or wedges are accessible via an openable casing and removable allowing a user to adjust the compression force for one or more of said springs.
