Hyperbaric Oxygen Medicine and Post-Covid Syndrome

Most patients who have contracted coronavirus disease (COVID-19) recover to good health within a few weeks, yet around 17% of patients continue to have problematic symptoms up to 3 months after the onset of COVID-19 — even after tests no longer detect virus in their body. This is known as long COVID.

The most common symptoms that people with long COVID-19 experience include:

• Loss of taste and/or smell
• Sleep issues
• Tachycardia
• Gut issues
• Anxiety
• Difficulty breathing
• Joint pain
• Chest pain
• Brain fog, including an inability to concentrate and impaired memory
• Fatigue
  

Due to the ischemic nature (lack of tissue oxygen) of COVID-19, HBOT supplements the amount of oxygen dissolved by body's tissues following infection and is quickly proving to be a useful method  complementary to long COVID treatment, with studies and clinical trials already in place. 

Leanne Lawrence's testimony, of overcoming chronic fatigue with Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment is one of the most widely reported testimonies of HBO treatment, documented by the BBC. She says“My life changed within two weeks". Over the past year there have been several people sharing the healing HBO treatment has brought to them after experiencing lingering symptoms of the Covid-19 virus.
