For those that use spa services, can anyone weigh in on how long after surgery you waited before you were able to return to using these services (e.g., tanning bed, sunless tanning, hydro-therapy, red-light therapy, massage chair, etc.)?

My spa will let me temporarily "suspend" my membership for up to 2 months twice a year if needed. My partner and I are taking a three-and-a-half-week tour of Southeast Asia in December/January, so I know I'll use one then, but I didn't know if I should use one now if I might end up feeling like going again after 2 or 3 weeks.

Any insight is appreciated. Thank you!

I had a massage 2 weeks post-op, but I had a remarkably easy, trouble-free, nearly pain-free recovery after the first 3 or 4 days.

Thanks. I assumed it was going to be a "wait and see" sort of situation, but hearing anecdotal evidence from others is so helpful in trying to predict and plan.
