Brief description of a line of beauty and health care products including an exfoliating glove, "***une lanière pour le dos***, un ensemble visage et pieds, une huile sèche pour le corps and des gels douche. Ces produits sont des huiles essentielles ne contenant aucun additif ni colorant."
Sorry that there's no more context.
I'm wondering about "back strap" but can't picture the product in my own mind. TIA

The Back Rubbing Strip
The essential companion to the Renaissance glove, the back strip allows for exfoliation of the skin and stimulate the circulation of this hard-to-reach part of the body.

exfoliating back strap
I have seen it - it's a long cylinder type strap which you grab at both ends and exfoliate your back with - the only way to do it yourself, except scratching yourself barenaked against a tree (but you're not a bear)

loofah back strap
This is what I have in my bathroom.
And here's what it looks like:

But there are lots of hits on Google, so they may not be restricted to my bathroom.

And it's also called a *loofah back scrubber*.
