Free: Massage table (Tilehurst Road RG1) Lightweight massage table in good condition. Removable headrest and armrests. A couple of small black marks on front corners which I think are from previous owner doing someone's mascara on it - I cannot get it off, but it will be under a cover when you use it. I used it for my training and travel to my practice clients - fits into my Fiat Punto.

Free: Massage chair (Tilehurst Road RG1) Affinity Puma. Navy blue. The basic functions of the chair works perfectly and i have been using it up until last week for my corporate massage work in and out of London on the train! Minor scuffing in some places and 2 bolts that adjust the height of the headrest are missing but you don't need them really. Structurally it is solid. Carry bag included - this is very worn and ripped (damage shown) and would need replacing.
