Is Getting A Body Massage Safe After A Cardiac Stent Placement?

Good morning, my friend had a heart attack a year ago and she had to get a stent. As a birthday present I would like to send her to a day spa for facials/ body massage but I m not sure if that is advisable as she is on ecotrin which is a blood thinning tablet.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

If you tell them to use herbals only then I don't think there is any problem. It is a very good idea for her to spend a week. Kindly gift it.

Hope this information helps you sort out your problems. If you feel its helpful kindly give me user thanks vote.
Happy health!
Regards,
Dr. Archana
