Long Covid

How can Oxygen Therapy help?
Some of the symptoms associated with Long COVID closely mimic such conditions as Post Viral Fatigue Syndrome, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and ME as well as MS, which are characterized by persistent fatigue, ‘brain fog, weakness, joint pain, depression, and non-restorative sleep.
Many of our MS, ME and CFS clients find relief from their symptoms through regular Oxygen Therapy sessions. In clients we have treated the more common symptoms such as fatigue, “brain fog”, insomnia and neurological effects respond well to Oxygen Therapy.
What are the benefits of Oxygen Therapy?
Oxygen therapy is an effective, and safe means of treating and managing the various symptoms associated with MS, ME/CFS. Oxygen Therapy is currently being used and studied as an effective form of treatment for lingering COVID-19 symptoms due to its ability to:
- increase oxygen concentration in all body tissues
- stimulate growth of new blood vessels, improving the blood flow to areas with any arterial blockage
- increase blood vessel diameter, improving blood flow to compromised organs, rebound arterial dilation
- stimulate adaptive increase in superoxide dismutase (SOD) - an internally produced antioxidants and free radical scavengers.
- enhance white blood cell action to aid the treatment of infection

How long is the treatment?
Oxygen Therapy is administrated according to a treatment protocol, which sets out an established safe time, number of sessions and pressure levels - these form the basis of our treatment protocols.
To maximize the benefits from oxygen therapy you will need several sessions, as the protocol recommends. This is to achieve oxygen saturation or oxygenation and maximize benefits. Latest research into Long COVID recommends 20 consecutive sessions at 2ata (2 atmospheres). Each treatment is a 90- minute session in the hyperbaric chamber. We do 5 sessions a day - Monday through Friday, and there can be up to 8 clients in the chamber at any one time, but it is more often less.
We ask our clients to participate in our evaluations by completing a short Fatigue Questionnaire. The information gathered should help inform, and build a body of knowledge around Long COVID, and hopefully improve future health interventions and support.
