I have old back pain and my physio usually does IFT for me. Now that im pregnant im not sure if these machines are safe. Will check with my gynac too but anyone done it during pregnancy?
I had back issues and wanted physio too, but I was told to clear any electrotherapy like IFT with my gynac first during pregnancy. Pls dont start it without asking ur doctor, better safe.
Dont risk it without asking yaar. For pregnancy related aches the physio usually switches to safe options like gentle exercises or heat. Tell them u are pregnant before any session.
This is really a question for ur doctor and physiotherapist together. Some treatments are kept on hold during pregnancy. Dont decide on ur own, just one quick check with them and u will know.
I got bad back pain in my pregnancy and my physio adjusted my treatment, she avoided certain machines. So ask both ur gynac and the physiotherapist, they will tell what is safe for u right now.
