"Hi, I'm Gretchen Rivas with Relax To The Max Massage Therapy. And today we're going to talk about, how to buy a skirt for your massage table. First thing that you want to do is to measure your massage table, measure the width of it, and the length of it. Because what I did find when I went to do this, is that a lot of them are commonly made for 29 inch wide tables and if you have a wider table like I do, which is 32 inches, some of them aren't going to fit. Once I figured out the size of my table, I went on-line, and I Googled, massage table skirts, and I got several different sites. But what I found, is that you can buy a massage skirt from 300 dollars, which was very nice, very exclusive, and very pricey, all the way down to about 30 dollars. And it depends on what type of setting you have, and what you're looking for, what type of massage skirt that you would want. The very beautiful expensive ones, wouldn't of fit my table, because they fit over the table, almost like a mattress pad, and then hung down, but they were only for 29 inch wide tables. So I ended up ordering a table skirt that is like an elastic band underneath, and I went on-line and found that, it was American made, and I talked to the owner and he's shipping it. So when you decide to order your massage table skirt, go on-line and do a little bit of research, make sure you do your measurements, and then you too will be able to order a massage skirt for your table that will look really nice. And that's how you order a massage skirt for your table."
