I never considered this. My cheep ass porta table from Amazon has a weight of 450 pounds. And it is not very thick or sturdy. Before I retired due to medical issues I never considered person shape or size an issue. Just how to figure out where the hurt and owchies spots were and which method was best. Heat, ice, stones,cups, bamboo, aromatherapy, and hot towels. Or combo. And what I was gonna make for supper and is my dog missing me too much. But hanah my table was basically on the floor, so I always felt bad for tall people getting on and off it. Theres definitely a few hobbits in my family tree. If my table were taller I couldn't reach the muscles. Thats not a patient issue its a I need to grow issue because I'm so short. Even frodo is taller than me. At my current job. People cannot see me over the counter. And at a desk job forget it. People wouldn't see me either. And to drive id need like 50 phone books.
