Massage after diving safe timing?

[soothinghands]

I just kicked off a wellness job at this beautiful lakeside spa, and it's been amazing so far. We've got some guests who are really into diving, and I'm curious about the timing for giving deep tissue massages. How long should I wait after their dives to make sure they're safe and avoid any decompression issues? I'd love to hear from any therapists out there who have tackled this before, your insights would be super helpful

Its generally recommended to wait at least a day after a dive before giving a deep tissue massage, since massage can affect circulation and potentially increase the risk of decompression issues. Lighter or gentle massage may be okay sooner, but for anything deep, giving the body time to off gas nitrogen is safest. Always check with the diver about their dive profiles and any symptoms before starting.
