User Reviews
The Master Massage Montour LX Massage Table is a fantastic table for Reiki. It has everything that a practitioner needs to get started effortlessly.
Weight
At 34 lbs., it is quite average for a wooden massage table. Some units in its price range can go as high as 38 lbs. However, its thickness makes it one of the bulkiest massage tables out there.
Many owners also claim that the table is heavy and tough to move. Carrying it can be a bit of a challenge for small practitioners. Regardless, a massage table cart can be used to ease the burden of carrying this table by hand.
Padding and Headrest
People who have used the Montour agree that the foam padding is incredibly relaxing. No complaints on the headrest as well.
Verdict
Overall, the Master Massage Montour LX is a durable unit with a luxurious padding and some freebies as a bonus. Then again, its high price point is a huge turn off. It also competes with other tables from the same brand. It’s hard to recommend the Montour over its better-priced siblings, such as the Montclair, Santana, or Monroe.
