Choosing the Right Chiropractic Table for Your Practice

All of the chiropractic training in the world is wasted in practice without the right table: it is an indispensable tool to chiropractors everywhere. Follow our tips to ensure your office has the perfect table for patient care and one you can rely on for safe and effective adjustments, day in and day out.

How to Choose Your Chiropractic Table

Suppose you are outfitting a new chiropractic practice from scratch or perhaps updating and refreshing your office after years of serving patients. In that case, you will need to invest in a high-quality table to ensure patient satisfaction.

There are a number of factors that will play into your decision, and each chiropractic office has its own unique set of circumstances. Your specialties and training, location, and budget may not align with every other chiropractor. Therefore, the guide below is exactly that: a guide. Use these tips to frame your decision-making process, though the outcome will not be the same for everyone.

In some cases, a chiropractic office may include numerous tables. You might have more than one provider, and you may use different techniques that demand different tables. Some chiropractic offices include specially designed children's tables to accommodate their younger and smaller patients.

When considering the table for your office, bear these things in mind:

Safety

This should be the biggest priority for any chiropractor, and you should only purchase a table constructed with the highest quality and one that has undergone rigorous safety testing. Read product reviews along with testing information to ensure the manufacturer has a reputation for quality in the industry.

Versatility

Look for the biggest bang for your buck by purchasing a table with versatile options for different types of adjustments. Most tables, whether manual or electric, will include drop segments that enable the provider to use force from the table to perform effective adjustments (rather than relying on their own physical force, which can be exhausting and also put the provider at risk of injury).

Weight Capacity

The table's maximum weight capacity is another important consideration, as you want to accommodate as many patients as possible.

Comfort

Look for tables that have been constructed with patient comfort in mind; these may include features like facial cutouts, smooth and durable coverings, and extra firm padding and support.
