The Asper’s said…My first thought, when I saw the table in person, was, “This table doesn’t look like a $100 table. It is easily comparable to tables I looked at for two or three hundred dollars more. I have used it for HVLA treatments on an almost weekly basis, and the quality of my treatments have been every bit as good as the treatments I have done at school.
Scott said…As salesman after salesman came to our school showing their tables, I found that $400 gets you a table with plastic legs that feels rickety and creaky when you do a Kirksville Krunch. When Brian told me he found a table for a lot less I laughed and asked somewhat mockingly, “Where? At Costco?”
I was able to try out one of these tables and the flex was very minimal, better than some of the tables in our OMM lab at school, and it actually felt sturdy, like a real table. $100 bucks or not, the quality and construction of this table is leagues above the comparable tables in the $300-400 range. I bought this table three months ago and use it about every other day either on Tile, carpet, even outside. I haven’t ever had a problem with the pad thickness and it is pretty easy to set up and take down by yourself.
I highly recommend this table for any Osteopathic student because it is:
1. affordable
2. integral in maintaining/expanding OMM techniques – Would you learn how to play the guitar and not own one to play at home? I don’t think so.
4. strong and durable
I have NOT been the least bit disappointed with my purchase
Andrew said…I heard from a friend about these tables and when I saw the table I thought it would cost more than $100. They look very nice and I like the fact that I can adjust it to my height, since I happen to be vertically challenged. I highly recommend the tables, especially since I got to pick the color I wanted, and when I am not using it I can put it in the black case it comes with and slide it under my bed. Thanks for the affordable table!
Josiah said…It’s hard to believe that a table this compact and lite is so quick to set up and yet so sturdy that I can perform HVLA with confidence that it won’t budge! It comes with a head rest, arm rests, and it has a removable piece that allows your patient to lie facedown in. My wife loves it, and it definitely builds your confidence when don’t have to practice HVLA on the floor! I highly recommend this table to anyone serrious about improving their OMM skills outside of the lab.
Nate said…I wanted to get an OMM table once I saw how nice it would be to do the treatments at home or wherever I was. After doing some research I was faced with the dilemma of either shelling out too much for a decent table, or getting one that I would be too afraid of working on. This table is amazing! You literally can’t find a table for $100. The closest ones to it are nowhere near sturdy enough to trust with HVLA. If you’re looking for a table that has realiability and comes for an awesome price, here’s your table. I use it multiple times a week and it is incredible. Speaking from experience, you just can’t do the same treatments on the ground, a sofa, a chair, or a bed. You need the real thing, and this is most definitely it!
Mike said…Great table! I originally thought this deal must have been to good to be true but this table has everything you could ever need. You would simply be wasting your money if you were to buy one of the more expensive ones. I am extremely pleased with my new table and all the money I saved!

Amy said…I have to admit, at first I was a little skeptical when I found this website selling a $100 massage table as a substitute for an OMT table. However, since my only other option was more than three times the price, I figured it would at least be worth it for the money I would save. Now I’m a believer – the table is very sturdy and more than sufficient for OMT. I can hardly tell the difference between these tables and the ones my classmates have gotten through the school. I was also happy with how quickly my table arrived – I ordered from out of state, and I still received my table in less than a week from ordering! All in all, I’m glad to have found this website and happy to have this table for OMT!
Nick said...Our UAAO was selling tables for nearly $400! I refused to pay such a ridiculous price, especially since I found these tables. I ordered one a little bit hesitantly and was pleasantly surprised with both the speed of processing and the quality of the table. In comparing my table to the $400 version, I have yet to find a functional difference. Don’t waste you money on the “official” OMM tables! Be confindent in your purchase!
Alan said…I was looking for a table and searched through many $300 models. I found this and was a little hesitant. To be honest, wonderful idea. It really is a fantastic table. Difficult to tell from the pictures, but the table is extremely sturdy. It is great.
Thanks
