Bench for Body Workers
My name is Eli Thompson. I am a KMI Structural Integrator practicing in Brookline, MA. Like many SI practitioners, I spent the first few years of my practice using an inadequate chair or table for my seated work. I finally recognized how this limited my work and searched for a strong, stable, affordable, and adjustable bench. To my surprise I found none. So, I made one. My clients reported a noticeable improvement in my seated work and the results proved it. I realized that the whole SI community would benefit from this bench. And so, I am proud to present the first bodyworker's bench manufactured by BenchWorks.
BenchWorks launched at the 2005 IASI Conference!

| Strong | Tested to support 350lbs., the bench is constructed of durable pre-finished birch plywood from Finland. |
| Stable | Two angled cross-bars provide increased stability to client. |
| Adjustable | A unique, vine shaped ratchet system offers eight height adjustments (patent pending). |
| Aesthetic | The bench has simple forms with clean lines. The beautiful photo-laminate finish reveals the grain of the wood and the unfinished edges create attractive highlights. Available in Dark Brown, Light Brown, Natural, Red, and Green. |
| Affordable | $275 plus taxes and shipping where applicable. |
| Taxes | Taxes are only applicable to sales within the state of MASS (where I live). Out-of-state orders are considered mailorder and thus pay no taxes. |
| Shipping | $20 flat rate within the continental US. |
| Special Offer! | I occassionally have benches that are lightly scratched or dented. They are structurally sound and function perfectly. If available, I offer them for a discounted rate of $225 plus shipping. |
