Default Portable massage tables

Hi there

I was wondering if any mobile therapists can advise me on a good lightweight and not too expensive massage table please? The one I have at the moment is great but very heavy to carry around and would like to purchase a much more practical one for mobile treatments.

Thanks in advance
Tracey

A young therapist I know invested in this Affinity Classic | For Sale Online | UK a couple of years ago - she asked for extra thick padding, and it weighs around 16/17kg. As one of her case studies I have to say it was very comfortable. If you do a google search for massage couches, there is an overwhelming choice! Ebay has some good offers too - but not all declare the weight.

This is the couch I have:

Portalite Delta Lightweight Massage Table

Mine is 28in wide and weighs 11.8 kilos. The 25in one is only 10.8 kilos. I am able to carry it around, but may consider getting some trolley wheels to make it a bit easier for me. Oh and it is very comfy too.

I can give my thumbs up for the same table Sue uses above aswell. Have mine two years now and very light and comfy. I have the 28" wide

You can get cheap ones in ebay but I think you wil only end up replacing it in a few years if not earlier so invest in a good quality one and never have to replace again. Try to go without a backrest too to save on weight.

Just bought one from Amazon for £80 including postage. Its about 18 kg so about manageable. It seems sturdy enough and I do like it.

Details are
HEIGHT (ADJUSTABLE): 66cm - 88cm WIDE: 67 cm LENGTH: 190cm MAXIMUM WORK LOAD: 525 lbs TABLE WEIGHT: 18kg COLOUR: WHITE OIL AND WATERPROOF VINYL
