It’s generally recommended to avoid intense exercise and activities that may exacerbate your symptoms for at least 24-48 hours after an IMS treatment session. This allows your body to rest and recover and gives the IMS therapy time to take effect. However, this doesn’t necessarily mean that you need to stop all physical activity.
Your healthcare practitioner may recommend specific exercises or activities that are safe and appropriate for your condition and treatment plan. These may include low-impact exercises, stretching, or other therapeutic activities that can help promote healing and prevent muscle stiffness or tightness.
It’s important to communicate with your healthcare practitioner about your exercise routine and any changes you plan to make while receiving IMS treatment. They can provide guidance on how to safely incorporate exercise and physical activity into your treatment plan and help you achieve the best possible outcomes.
