JessS 25 Posted March 26, 2014 (edited) Hey guys. I'm a licensed massage therapist to be banded in May (on Cinco De Mayo! Vodka is a clear liquid right? Jk). My job is, as you might expect, very physical. I'm fortunate where I'm in a good place to take several weeks off, but I'm curious if anyone else here does physical work and how fast your recovery was? If you have a desk job, how long was it until you could do (gentle) core exercises? Edited March 26, 2014 by JessS 1 kll724 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corridor72 518 Posted March 26, 2014 My surgeon required me to take 3 weeks off due to the fact that my job is very physical with a lot of lifting/pulling/tugging involved. I was glad to have the time off too. 1 kll724 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kll724 3,055 Posted March 26, 2014 Good advice from countrysweet, I think the best would be to check with your own surgeon.however. I know that even light work is not cool for a few weeks.I couldn't lift anything more than a gallon of milk the 1st 2 weeks. Best wishes.Karen..aka.kkll724 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
