Long COVID

Since the pandemic began, things have been stressful for most of us.  We have all had our lives changed in some way or another, we have worried, changed habits, lost loved ones, lost our sense of social normalcy and lost sleep.

All of these things have set the stage for a higher level of stress and inflammation, and despite everyone’s efforts and safety precautions – over 60%, or nearly 200 million Americans have gotten COVID-19.

Statistics are showing that 1 in 13 people who have recovered from the acute infection retain some type of Long COVID or Post-COVID Conditions.  Varying greatly in range, people are experiencing things like brain fog, inflammatory pain syndromes, low energy, sleeplessness, anxiety, depression, Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and shortness of breath –  to name just a few.

If you aren’t feeling like yourself since you had the virus it’s probably time to do something about it.  Medical acupuncture helps reset the immune system to shorten recovery time, modulate inflammation as well as help regulate blood pressure and restore healthy nitric oxide production.  In other words it helps to restore balance and get things running smoothly again.

In our clinic we have seen numerous cases of Long COVID in the past couple years, we are proud to say that everyone who received treatment reported positive change.  Some had an overall sense of well-being and better sleep, while others experienced less pain and had more energy during the day so they could reconnect with loved ones and wake up in a good mood to greet the day again.  If your energy is low and you need a boost  –  give us a call and see for yourself how acupuncture can help.
