A massage table for supporting a person during a massage above a surface includes a leg assembly that engages the floor, and a first table top that includes a frame that is supported above the surface with the leg assembly. The frame includes a frame base that supports at least a portion of the person, and a border flange that is secured to the frame base and that extends downward from the frame base. The border flange can include a first side section, a first transverse section that extends transversely to the first side section, and a first connector section that connects the first side section to the first transverse section. The first connector section can be curved. Additionally, the border flange can include a second transverse section that extends substantially parallel to the first transverse section and a curved second connector section that connects the first side section to the second transverse section. A first segment of the first transverse section, a first part of the second transverse section, the entire first side section, the first connector section, and the second connector section are made of a continuous piece of material. For example, the continuous, piece of material can be a continuous piece of plywood that is bent during formation to form the first connector section and the second connector section.
