The massage table should be strong, comfortable and withstand a weight of at least 250 kilograms. The weight of the patient can vary greatly, and massage therapists during work should make great efforts. Weak design quickly crumbles. The convenience of the table is strongly reflected in the work of the masseur and the effect of the service provided.

Massage tables are divided into stationary and folding. Stationary more convenient to use, but take up more space. Their use is important in massage rooms and large salons. Therefore, if you intend to use the house or on-site sessions, the folding table will be more convenient. The frame can be made of metal or wood.

Making a massage table. Step-by-step instruction

  1. Tabletop assembly

Work on the creation of a massage table starting from the table tops. Cut out two plywood of the same size 600x900 mm. In one of them, using a jigsaw, cut out a part of the plywood so that an opening in the shape of an oval with a size of 180x120 mm is obtained.

Next, go to the assembly of the frame. The frames must exactly match the size of the plywood. It is necessary to connect the timber among themselves with self-tapping screws (45 mm), pre-drilling holes for them. This action will protect the timber from cracking. We fasten plywood to the frame with screws 20 mm long.

For convenience, the resulting parts are covered with foam rubber and fabric selected for this. Start with foam rubber. Cut the necessary pieces to the size of plywood, fix it with glue on the table top. In case a part of foam rubber protrudes somewhere, it should be trimmed using a clerical knife. We uphols the received preparation with skin or its substitute with the help of a stapler. It should start from the long sides, after moving to the short ones, keeping a distance of 10 cm between the clips. On each worktop, on a short piece, the fabric should be fixed on the side, not under the worktop. Loops will be attached here.

  1. Legs for a massage table

Hacksaw or jigsaw from a bar to cut sets of workpieces 885, 695 and 555 mm. We make the first two supports, taking 2 beams of 885 mm and 1 555 mm, we fix with an overlap. The distance to the cross beam is 760 mm. The ends of the long bars cut with a jigsaw at an angle of 41 degrees. The angle may be more obtuse, but the same on all supports.

The second two parts need to be assembled into a wood floor of 2 bars 695 mm and 1 555 mm. In the assembled part, the ends are slaughtered at a 30 degree angle and we connect both parts with the help of loops. Check how well it works, whether there is friction. In order not to outweigh the hinges, first they should be mounted on the central screw, and only after checking fasten completely.

  1. Spacer for self-made massage table

For the manufacture of the spacer, we will use a 1060 mm timber, sawn into two parts, interconnected by a loop. Attach loops to the bar in the middle between the legs, keeping the middle. The length is chosen individually. The height of the table directly depends on this value. You need to pick it up individually, depending on your height.
