1. A portable, folding treatment table comprising:
- a pair of rectangular table sections with sides, a top and bottom;
a peripheral border flange depending from said bottom of each of said table sections;
hinge member interconnecting said flange bottom edges of adjacent sides of said table sections to enable folding of said table top sections from a working configuration, wherein said table top sections are coplanar, to a portable configuration, wherein the bottom edges of said flanges are juxtaposed;
two pairs of support legs each leg having a top and bottom;
a first pivot means hingably securing said top of each leg of each said pair of legs to said bottom of each said table sections;
a rigid cross brace secured between said support legs of each pair of legs;
a pair of flexible, non-stretchable cables, connecting one of said pair of support legs to the other of said pair of support legs said cable being of such length so as to be in tension when said table sections are coplanar and when said legs are fully unfolded;
two pairs of support arms, each said support arm comprises a first and a second section each section having a top and bottom;
said bottom of each said first section being of a smaller or larger diameter than said top of said second section and said section with the larger diameter top or bottom has a tubular portion with an internal diameter capable of receiving said smaller top or bottom section thereby allowing said second section to be interconnected to said first section;
a second pivot means hingably securing said tops of each said pair of first sections of arms to said bottom of each said table section; and
a third pivot means securing the bottoms of each pair of second sections of arms to said pair of legs.
