Relaxation Equipment

Massage Table & Chairs:
Massage clients depend on their therapist for relaxation and a healing touch. To provide this, a massage therapist must rely on a comfortable, yet accommodating, massage table. When it comes to massage, both comfort and convenience are crucial. Many therapists demand massage tables that are as comfortable to lie on as they are to clean and carry.
Massage can provide immediate relief; from migraine headaches, to lower back pain. There is also evidence that indicates that massage can enhance immunity by stimulating lymph flow, increase flexibility and even help lessen depression and anxiety. Since almost every type of massage is performed on a massage table, they have become a wise investment for any professional, no matter big or small, looking to succeed in the world of massage therapy.
There are two popular types of massage tables, stationary and portable. Each is designed to accommodate different budgets, space requirements and styles of massage.
Are you going to need to move your massage tables often and will you need to be able to set them up in small spaces? If you make house calls, you will need a portable massage table, as opposed to a stationary one. These are popular because not only do they not require much space, but they can usually accommodate clients of any size.
Other considerations in choosing a massage table include budget and massage types. For example, we recommend therapist performing sports massage use an extra strong top with lightweight foam and vinyl. Reiki and Reflexology therapists need tables with special end panels to access clients while seated. If you plan on combining other therapies, you may need an electronically adjustable table. Some other popular features to consider are adjustable face cradles and sling style armrests.
