Reformable positioning device

(canceled)

A method of providing a reformable positioning device for positioning a subject comprising:

• providing a support structure comprising a resiliently deformable body constructed and arranged to be selectively deformably reshaped and to retain its deformed shape upon being deformed by a user, the resiliently deformable body being configured to retain the deformed shape in accordance with a desired configuration that provides desired positioning of the subject, wherein the resiliently deformable body includes multiple user-configurable components for forming the desired shape for positioning the subject, individual ones of the user-configurable components being independently configurable relative other ones of the user-configurable components;
• and
• wherein the support structure includes support surface having dimensions to accommodate the entire body of the subject, the support surface having multiple support regions individually corresponding to a given user-configurable component.
