About Us

Our Origins and Approach

TAO Trading was founded in 1999 by Jeffrey Tippman and Amona Buechler, in Chicago, USA. Fortuitously, they met the world's largest producer of portable massage tables, realized the tremendous value of those tables, and soon began selling massage tables, massage chairs, and other products. Since then, they have sold several thousand massage tables and chairs worldwide.
The foundation of their great success is actually quite simple:

Another factor that is beneficial for our customers and for TAO Trading itself, is that Amona has many years of experience as a carpenter and a Feldenkrais practitioner. This background has allowed her to better design and built her own massage tables, and now apply her expertise to the ongoing improvements of the complete product line.

 

Our Philosophy

The friendly folks here at TAO Trading don't just sell massage tables. We think of our work as developing and supporting a better lifestyle for ourselves, for the bodyworkers who trust us, and for their clients who benefit from our products. We seek out products that contribute more harmony, well-being, and beauty to our day-to-day living. In the future, we will continue to apply our philosophy to improving our product offerings, and helping bodyworkers all over the world.
