A member asked:
I am physical and massage therapist, is sarcoidosis contraindicative to any type therapy or bodywork, that you know of?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: Unless the patient has severe sarcoid arthritis or myositis (both very rare), massage and other body work should not be a problem.
