A portable treatment table comprises a plurality of separate patient support table sections interconnectable for supporting a patient during treatment at a convenient working level above the floor while lying in a generally horizontal position. Each of the table sections includes a cushion assembly with drops for supporting a portion of the patient's body mounted on a frame and a plurality of support legs are pivotally interconnected with the frame for movement between a folded-up position inside the frame for transporting the table sections and a downwardly extended position for supporting the patient during treatment. Connectors are provided for detachably interconnecting the frames of the table sections and a detachable head piece assembly is provided for supporting a patient's head for cervical adjustment while lying on the interconnected table sections. When not in use, the head piece assembly is stowed for transport beneath the cushions of the table sections inside the folded-up legs and frame.

An adjustable head support for a chiropractic table includes a base with a platen spaced above the base and interconnected for angular displacement relative to the base about an axis longitudinally thereof. An adjustable control system is provided for selectively controlling the amount of angular displacement between the base and the platen. The axis of rotational displacement of the platen is spaced above a head cushion supported above the platen and the axis generally coincides with the spinal column or vertabrae of a patient resting on the chiropractic table.

An electric pressing iron having a smooth, substantially non-porous, corrosion resistant member secured within a recess at the bottom of a valve seat. This member, surrounding the orifice portion of the water control valve between the iron water tank and steam generating chamber, will reduce corrosion and the attachment of mineral deposits at this critical section of the steam iron, thereby extending the life of the iron as well as maintaining consistent control of water flow.
