You might want to check with your Dr. as he knows your situation best.
You would need to be comfortable laying on your stomach and I believe I was on lifting restrictions (not over 10 lbs) for 2 months post surgery. I suspect my Dr. would have said around 2 months, but it probably also depends on the type of massage. Some can be pretty rough, but there are gentile ones such as chair, pregnancy and extremity massages that you may be able to schedule sooner with medical clearance.
