Long-Haul COVID Treatment

Using Vagus Nerve Therapy for Long-Haul COVID

Estimates for individuals suffering from long-haul COVID-19 span from 7.5% to 41%.

Individuals experiencing Long-Haul COVID endure stress-induced ailments triggered by the adverse impact of COVID-19 on the vagus nerve. The lingering symptoms persist for months after the initial viral infection, leading to a challenging future marked by persistent fatigue, anxiety, dizziness, chest pains, and digestive issues.

These long-term problems significantly impact the quality of life for COVID Long-Haulers. Scientific support exists for Vagus Nerve Therapy (VNS) as a promising novel therapy to address the symptomology associated with Long-Haul COVID.

Long-Haul COVID Symptoms

Long-Haul COVID, also known as post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC), can manifest with a wide range of symptoms that persist for weeks or months after the acute phase of COVID-19. Common symptoms reported by individuals experiencing Long-Haul COVID include:

  • Fatigue
  • Dizziness
  • Brain fog
  • Skin rashes
  • Joint pain or reduced mobility
  • Muscle pain
  • Problems with taste and smell
  • Shortness of breath or cough
  • Changes in vision
  • Trouble sleeping

While long-haul COVID typically occurs more in people who experienced severe COVID-19 illness, anyone who has been infected with COVID can experience long-haul COVID.

Treating Long-Haul COVID Holistically

Ongoing research shows vagus nerve therapy or VNS could relieve some long-haul COVID symptoms. Persistent symptoms in long-term COVID could be a result of prolonged immune response and sustained inflammation following the initial infection. Notably, vagus nerve therapy can provide anti-inflammatory effects non-invasively and without medication.

The vagus nerve acts as the body’s “information superhighway” by carrying crucial signals between the brain and various internal organs. When this long cranial nerve is triggered, studies have shown reductions in hallmark long COVID symptoms such as chronic fatigue, headaches, and irregular blood pressure.

Vagus nerve therapy is a promising new treatment for relieving the symptoms associated with long-haul COVID.

Discover How Vagus Nerve Therapy Helps with Long-Haul COVID

Because the vagus nerve influences the entire body it can be key for treating some or all of the encompassing symptoms of long-haul COVID. When the vagus nerve is modulated, electrical impulses travel to areas of the brain and this altered brain activity treats certain conditions. This method “wakes up” the PNS to benefit the human body in a variety of ways including relieving lingering COVID issues.

It also has the potential to address neurological symptoms in a way that limited pharmacological solutions have yet to. Marjorie can help you find relief from long-haul COVID symptoms utilizing this new non-invasive therapy.
