Treatment tables are reliable and safe surfaces health professionals use to treat and attend to patients. Although these tables are available in several variations, there are two main types: static and adjustable. Also known as stationary tables, static tables have a fixed height for maximum stability of the patients who have no trouble getting on the table. Conversely, adjustable treatment tables are tiltable, foldable, and height-adjustable. These tables benefit patients who use wheelchairs or those who may have trouble getting on the table under their own power.
In addition, there are treatment tables that fit a specific practice or discipline, such as chiropractic traction, physical therapy, sports medicine, spa, imaging, and pediatric tables.
