The Best Massage Table for Opening the Front and Relaxing the Back

For most of us, we sit at our desks all day for work or school. Then we come home and sit some more. We slouch at the couch to watch TV. And for much of our day we are looking down at our phones and tablets. The downside of that has been repeated by our mothers and doctors. We are ruining our backs, they say. Our heads are heavy, and now our necks are having to do four times the work. Every inch forward, our head can increase its weight on the spine by ten pounds. Now that is a heavy head! This causes problems for the spine, which starts to compress upon itself. Bodywork therapists reverse this issue by using an ergonomic massage table, Model 850 by Comfort Craft. This table allows them to open the front of the patient and relax the back all while lengthening the body.

What Makes Model 850 the Best Massage Table for Spine and Neck Therapy?

The Model 850 is not your typical massage table. It is electric and can bend in the middle. In fact, the difference is in the bend. After all, our bodies are not flat. There is a natural curve in our lower spine which affects our back. Everyday slouching affects that natural curve and compresses the spine. Model 850 helps ease the back into a relaxed position. The patient lies on their back while the table bends a bit so that the back is no longer at a flat angle. The therapist can then do specific stretches to open the front and relax the back. In doing so, the spine is brought back to its natural state.

Why Is the Bend So Important?

The bend is not just there to relax the back. It has a big role in improving posture. What many people do not know is that strengthening the front of the body helps relax the back. Think about it, when you have lower back or shoulder pain, it is usually because of slouching or an activity that put force on those areas. Those activities have tightened those areas while your front remained loose. Thus, to remove the pain, you must strengthen the front (the opposite areas). In doing so, you ease the back. The bend in Model 850 allows you to feel lighter, taller, and more energetic after a massage session. By opening the front and relaxing the back, this massage table gives your body the amazing feeling it has sought for a long time. Comfort Craft’s Model 850 is the best massage table for treating back pain. It corrects posture using its ergonomic bend (mid-split) design. Opening the front and relaxing the back truly makes a difference!
