Frequently Asked Questions

What table size is best for me?

The standard size of a table is 71 cm wide by 183 cm long. With the headrest, it is 211 cm long. This standard table matches the needs of the client who has an average body size and for the bodyworker who is less than 175 cm. Most body workers prefer to work with a 73 cm or 76 cm table, especially if they are over 175 cm. The 76 cm table, however, is 1 to 1,5 kg heavier than the standard table.

What is the best table for my practice?

All Master massage™ tables are multi-purpose tables. They work for all massage techniques.

In selecting a table, you may wish to consider the following:

Although the Master massage™ tables are not made specifically for Reiki and cranial sacral bodywork, they provide enough legroom to work well with these techniques.
If you practice Shiatsu, you should choose a push-lock table (instead of an auto-lock table), because a push-lock table can be placed directly on the ground, with the legs folded up inside -- allowing you to work with your clients on the ground.
For osteopathic methods, choose a table with 5 cm or less of padding.
All of our tables are oil- and waterproof; but be sure to clean your table with a light soap if you are practicing Ayurveda (oil massage) and using large amounts of oil.
Most of our massage tables come with a multi-adjustable headrest and all are height adjustable.

Which thickness of foam should I look for in a table?

Some bodyworkers prefer a 5 cm thick padding, because it provides more resistance, and thus they can administer a more intense massage. On the other hand, some bodyworkers are more concerned with the client's comfort and thus choose a 7,5 cm thick padding. In either case, it is critical that you choose a table with dense, small-cell foam, so the table will retain its form after many years of use.

What is the advantage of the double lock system?

Double locks provide more stability for the table, and thus for clients that feel uneasy on massage tables, than just one lock. A single-lock table may sway slightly, taking away from your client's ease and relaxation.

What is a UL listing?

UL listing means that the massage table has been tested by Underwriters Laboratory, an independent product quality verification organization in the U.S. Only the best massage tables have this certificate of excellence. By selecting a UL listed table, you demonstrate to your clients your commitment to their safety. You may find that having a UL listed table is an advantage, should a question of liability arise.

What should I do to keep my massage table in good condition?

After you first receive your massage table, it is a good idea to check all screws and knobs to verify that they are still tight. During transit, temperature changes and varying humidity levels may loosen them. This process will take only a couple of minutes.

To help maintain the table's stability in the future, follow this simple maintenance schedule: Every 1 to 6 months (depending on how frequently the table is used), or if you notice any looseness in the table, check and tighten:

the 8 knobs for the height adjustment (by hand)
the 8 screws on both wooden leg panels (use a screwdriver)
all joints of the leg and frame system (use an allen wrench)

What accessories do I need?

Most of our Master massage™ tables are equipped with all of the accessories needed to start your bodywork. Yet we do offer some additional accessories, which are available on the Accessories page.
