Massage Table Wedge

A massage table wedge is a specialized accessory used in massage therapy to provide additional support and comfort for clients during treatment sessions. This wedge-shaped cushion is typically made from foam or memory foam and is designed to be placed under specific areas of the body, such as the neck, knees, or ankles, to create a more comfortable and ergonomic positioning. By elevating certain body parts, the massage table wedge helps alleviate pressure points, reduce strain on joints, and enhance relaxation for clients during their massage sessions.

Massage therapists often use table wedges to address specific client needs or to accommodate for anatomical variations. For example, placing a wedge under the client’s knees can help relieve tension in the lower back and promote proper spinal alignment, while a wedge under the neck can provide support and reduce strain during face-down positioning. Additionally, table wedges may be used to enhance the effectiveness of certain massage techniques, such as prenatal massage or sports massage, by facilitating better body mechanics and positioning for both the client and the therapist.
