Not necessarily. We can work with you with pillows and side lying positions. We use bolsters for your comfort and can adjust the length of time you are faced down. Several of our tables can even be tilted if one might have a vertigo type issue. Most of our tables are ADA compliant and the head can be raised and the table itself lowered.If you can not walk up or down stairs, our Mason location would be ideal.
