The Oakworks Boss Portable Treatment Table is something a little different but I thought I’d share it with you. It’s not ideal for massage therapists working out of spa’s or mobile therapists on the move. Although if you’re looking for something incredibly strong for any reason, it may just be what you’re looking for.
It’s a table designed by and for professional athletes. Professional American Footballers in particular. So as you can imagine, it’s built to deal with some serious weight, as well as being able to be used out doors on rough ground.

This is not your average spa table. It’s designed for use with heavy loads and was designed to be used at American Football clubs, but has also become popular in chiropractic clinics and other professional therapy practices.
A lot of tables claim to be the strongest or most durable on the market. But the Oakworks Boss table really is one of them. It can handle weights in excess of 600 lbs, and is designed to be used outdoors in all weathers.
With this in mind it’s more of a no frills table. It has basic foam and fabric, all designed to suit its purpose. The benefit being that it’s a lot less expensive than tables more commonly seen in spas and therapists rooms. So if you’re not to bothered with looks and just want a really good functional table, this might be a good place to start.
