Abstract: A head support apparatus useful for converting a conventional bedding mattress set into a massage table. The apparatus comprises a base having a pair of upright legs supporting a face plate. A head or face cushion is attached to the face plate. The face plate and the cushion are configured to enable unrestricted airflow to the nose and mouth of a person whose head is supported thereon, particularly in a face-down position. The legs are affixed to a front end of the base, and the face plate is cantilevered beyond the base plate enabling the base plate to be inserted between two support surfaces, including a mattress and box spring, such that the face plate is positioned immediately adjacent an edge of the support surfaces. The legs are preferably configured to enable vertical height adjustment of the apparatus.
