Top 5 Lightweight Portable Massage Tables

In today's economy a lot of people who used to go to a spa for a massage are looking at buying their own lightweight portable massage tables. I did some checking and was amazed at not only how many choices there were but also how affordable lightweight portable massage tables had become.

A massage sounds good right about now...that is how I feel once I spend all day working at my computer. Massage is a great way to relax and relieve stress but can also be a form of therapy for strained, tired muscles.

If you are a massage therapist you may know about all the choices available and what features to look for but....if you are just someone looking at adding a portable massage table  to your home, you may need a little background information before making your purchase. So I took the liberty at researching a few brands so I could determine which one I would add to my Christmas Wish List (my husband doesn't know it yet}.

I know I have been guilty of making a purchase without doing the research as I am sure many of you have. So I hope this information helps in making an informed purchase that turns out to be a satisfying purchase. Here is a little more info on Master Massage who has been making massage equipment for over 15 years and is one of the largest makers of  lightweight portable massage tables in the world.

'Bodies Talk. We listen'

I have tried to find out more information on the company that makes Lamassa Portable Massage tables but the best I can tell, they are distributed from a company called Best Buys Massage.

I did think they deserved notable mention as they are one of the more affordable portable massage tables, they come with a lifetime warranty and their tables are sold as a portable massage package with includes a free carrying case, massage DVD and Spa Music CD.Their tables are very lightweight, come pre-assembled, very easy to set up, all you do is unfold!

In doing research on lightweight portable massage tables, I realized there is a whole world out there I never knew about. That being said I really felt it was important to include a section talking about a Reiki massage table. For all that do not know what the term "Reiki" means (which included myself until now), I want to share a little background information about this very spiritual healing form of massage.

Reiki is derived from a technique developed by Japanese Buddist in 1922. It is sometimes referred to as "palm healing". Reiki is not just a form of alternative medicine but really a form of practicing and teaching a form of using spiritual energy as a form of healing passed on through massage. I realize there is so much more to this practice and I can not do it justice in this brief description but I felt it was important to include. I realized finding a Reiki massage table that suits one's needs but is not overpriced can be difficult.

I never realized how many accessories one might need even if you are buying your own personal portable massage table...wow! Almost each and every company I mentioned had their own line of accessories, some specific to their brand of table and others that are more universal. Here are just a few of the items you might also want to consider when looking at a massage table:

• Massage table sheets
• Massage table warmer
• Massage table covers
• Massage bolsters
• Face-cradles, headrests and cushions
• And of course any number of massage oils and creams,aromatherapy products, CDs DVDs

But hey, if you are going to treat yourself to your own home spa, you might as well get all the bells and whistles! Seriously though, there are a wide variety of choices when it comes to choosing a lightweight portable massage table, it really depends on what your needs are.

You may be looking for certain features, styles or maybe cost is the most important feature for you. Whatever you may want or need, these are some of the better companies I found and I think there is a lightweight portable massage table that will fit you perfectly.
