When your body is fighting infection, massage can increase discomfort and spread infection.

❌ Recent Fracture or Severe Injury

Massage should not be done on freshly injured or fractured areas.

❌ Skin Infection or Open Wounds

To prevent irritation and infection spread, therapy should be postponed.

❌ Severe Pain or Inflammation

In acute injury stage, rest and medical treatment are more important.

❌ Blood Clot Risk or Medical Conditions

People with certain medical conditions should consult a doctor before therapy.

⚠️ Take Medical Advice If You Have:

  • High blood pressure
  • Diabetes complications
  • Nerve-related issues
  • Recent surgery

Safety always comes first.
