I've had massage at the same time as acupuncture and I've let them know that my tummy is very sore so they left that area alone and concentrated on the rest of me instead. Can't see why you can't go... the stress relief is a wonderful antedote to pain of adhesions etc :-)

Hi, I tried to book a spa day and got there to find that they had a policy that meant I couldn't use any of the facilities (jacuzzi, jet pool etc) because I had surgery within the last year. My advice would be to check with the spa before you book :) If they say no, it's not the end of the world, I just opted for the top facial, manicure and pedicure!
