Welcome to the 2024 Massage Tables Now review of the hottest products and up-and-comers for the new year.  We base this review on sales and customer comments to give insight into the best massage tables for 2024 and beyond.  You will also discover some must-have accessories you may not have heard of before.  So let's go!

Best Over-All Electric Massage Table

The Earthlite series Ellora are the best massage tables

Consistently, the Earthlite line of Ellora Electric Lift Massage Tables wins this spot.  The reliable and quiet lift can position your client from the ADA-compliant height of 18" up to 37".  So it's easy for your client to access and quickly adjusts to the height you need to perform the perfect massage.  It also features rounded corners for easy maneuverability, 3" of Pro-Plush triple-layer cushioning, soft and easy-to-maintain Comfort-Flex upholstery in your choice of 10 colors, dual-end maple ports for accessories, a foot pedal, and wheels on one end when the table needs to be moved.

The Ellora is available in a standard flat top, with a tilt back, or as a completely adjustable salon top.  While these tables are custom-built to your specifications, the flat and manual tilt back are built in just four days!  The Ellora series offers exceptional value in quality, reliability, and features.  You will find any of the Elloras to be one of the best massage tables on the market.

Best Ultra-Light Portable Massage Table

Best Massage Accessory

Earthlite Pregnancy and Prone Cushion is a great alternative to purchasing a pregnancy ready table.

Want to offer massage to pregnant clients but don't want to invest in a new table designed for that?  Try the Earthlite Pregnancy & Prone Cushion with Headrest.  It sits on top of your existing massage table and comfortably suspends your client so their large belly and tender breasts are not squished or in pain.  It includes a matching face cushion and plug for the belly hole.  The cushion can also be used with larger clients, those recovering from breast surgery, or for supporting comfortable prone positions, including managing COVID-19 recovery.  It is wrapped in your choice of CFC-Free ComfortFlex upholstery for its softness, durability, and sanitation.  This small investment will expand your business offerings and turn your massage table into one of the best massage tables.

Best Massage Table Options

You no longer need to select a cookie-cutter massage table.  The best massage tables can be customized in so many ways, assisting you in performing your specialty treatments and making your clients more comfortable.  Here are some of the top-selling options for 2024.

Heated Tops

All the top manufacturers offer a version of a built-in heat source for the best massage tables.  You find them mostly on electric tables, but you can also find them on some portable tables.  Typically, they offer multiple heat levels and automatic shut-off to offer the right level of comfort and relaxation while not wasting energy.

Breast Recesses

Breast Recesses on a massage table make the client more comfortable and better align the spine.  They can also assist with scapula access

Breast and pregnancy recesses are another popular upgrade to massage tables.  You can find them as simple recesses to electronically controlled devices that offer superior support and comfort.  They aren't just for women, either.  They can benefit larger clients by keeping the spine better aligned and providing access to the scapula for better massage access.

Integrated Sound and Vibration Therapy Systems

Integrated sound and vibration therapy systems are all the rage.  Providing the option for vibration and sound therapy can affect your client at the molecular level, leading to a totally different level of healing.  According to ABMP (Associated Bodywork & Massage Professionals), anecdotal reports show vibrational sound massage has helped clients with:

  • Behavioral problems
  • Carpal tunnel and rheumatoid arthritis
  • Chronic pain and sciatica
  • Cognitive impairment
  • Insomnia Mood disorders (depression, grief, anger, anxiety)
  • Neurological disorders (PTSD, ADD/ADHD, migraines)
  • PMS and pregnancy symptoms
