Return To Massage Article Archive   Appropriate Massage Equipment By Michelle Bery If you do not see your clients in an existing spa, then you will have to provide a massage table and massage chair as part of your massage equipment. A massage table can be a permanent piece of furniture or foldout table that you bring along with you to appointments. It is generally a long table with a cushion for the client to rest their face when they are on their stomach. When purchasing this piece of massage equipment be sure that the table is of adequate length and sturdy enough to hold a variety of weights. A massage chair allows you to do back and neck massages while the client sits up with their face in a cushioned holder. This piece of massage equipment is typically for shorter massages and dont require the client to remove any clothing. Many massage therapists - regardless of whether they work in a spa or at home - consider their own massage oils and lotions to be a part of their personal massage equipment. The smell and texture of certain products appeal to some massage therapists more than others and they will often bring their products along with them. In addition, for those massage therapists trained in hot stone massage, they will often bring their own hot stones - as these are expensive and personal pieces of massage equipment. However, more important than the massage equipment - or possibly considered the most important piece of massage equipment of all - is the massage therapists ability to connect with their client and deliver a relaxing, therapeutic massage.
