Lightweight massage tables

If anyone wants to do massage at home for a patient, these might be handy.

Lightweight and the person I know, who uses them, folds them up and
carries to the patient.
Might be handy for small spaces or to take the table to the loved one, as
opposed to making the patient move a distance to the table.

Might give ideas (also) on how to build one.
I don't know the prices. I think I've seen some on ebay.

My massage therapist takes a portable table to house calls. Works very
well. A conventional bed is not the right height for massage & even a
hospital bed is too wide & awkward for the therapist to get in a good
position.

I shared a king-sized bed for years with my husband who had mets to the
spine. Any movement could set off ripples of unbearable pain.

You should know by now that some people with cancer are in too much pain.
Penny was (for a while).

I can't speak to Penny, but my personal experience is if you can't tolerate
another person in bed with you , getting on a table would be impossible.
