CAN Osteopathy help with the treatment of long COVID?
What is long COVID
For some people, coronavirus (COVID-19) can cause symptoms that last weeks or months after the infection has gone. This is sometimes called post-COVID-19 syndrome or "long COVID".

About long COVID
How long it takes to recover from COVID-19 is different for everybody. Many people feel better in a few days or weeks and most will make a full recovery within 12 weeks. But for some people, symptoms can last longer. The chances of having long-term symptoms does not seem to be linked to how ill you are when you first get COVID-19. People who had mild symptoms at first can still have long-term problems.

Long COVID symptoms (also found in chronic stress):
Muscular pain Joint pain Heart palpitations Depression and anxiety Headaches Extreme tiredness (fatigue) and or difficulty sleeping (insomnia) Shortness of breath Chest pain or tightness Problems with memory and concentration Tinnitus, earaches Dizziness, feeling sick, diarrhea, stomach aches |
Other long COVID symptoms:
Pins and needles A high temperature Cough Sore throat, Changes to sense of smell or taste Rashes Brain fog |
All the above symptoms in the first column are also present when the stress response is overactive also referred to as autonomic dysfunction or complications.
For the treatment of long-COVID it is our professional opinion based on treating people with long-COVID that a treatment including a reaset of the autonomic nervous system has the potential to bring back balance and relaxation to the whole body with all symptoms disappearing over a very short time (days rather then weeks except sense of smell and taste for which I don't have enough feedback yet).
