Immune Support

Several years into the COVID-19 pandemic, a growing number of individuals are experiencing a condition known as Long-Haul COVID—persistent symptoms that continue beyond three months after initial infection. Affecting approximately 7.5% of U.S. adults, this complex syndrome can involve fatigue, brain fog, chest pressure, palpitations, and other lingering issues that disrupt daily life.

Despite ongoing research, there are currently no standardized treatments for Long-Haul COVID. It often affects multiple organs, requiring input from a variety of medical specialists. Unfortunately, most approaches focus on managing individual symptoms rather than addressing the root cause.

Acupuncture and Chinese medicine offer a promising, holistic alternative. A 2022 case study reported significant improvements in a 50-year-old woman with long-haul symptoms after just seven acupuncture sessions. Known for stimulating immune response, reducing inflammation, and supporting the body’s natural healing mechanisms, acupuncture can be an effective complement to traditional multidisciplinary care.
