Generally speaking, you will not be under any restrictions and you may return to your normal routine including work. to maximize M.U.A., physical therapy and adjustments/manipulation should be started soon after undergoing M.U.A. You should expect 6-8 weeks of these treatments which are typically performed at your doctor's office however, your doctor may refer you to the physical therapist. Treatment may include: stretching exercises, neuromuscular rehabilitation, electrical muscle stimulation and cryo-therapy (ice).
