COVID-19 Long Haul

What is COVID-19 Long Haul?

Long COVID, also known as COVID-19 long haul or post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC), refers to a range of lingering symptoms that persist for weeks or even months after the initial COVID-19 infection has cleared. Common symptoms include fatigue, brain fog, shortness of breath, chest pain, joint aches, and difficulty concentrating. For many, these symptoms are debilitating and impact daily life, making effective recovery solutions essential.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) has emerged as a powerful treatment option for Long COVID. At MD Hyperbaric, we offer personalized HBOT programs that help reduce inflammation, improve oxygen delivery, and support the body’s natural healing processes. During treatment, patients breathe 100% medical-grade oxygen in a pressurized chamber, significantly increasing the amount of oxygen that reaches tissues and vital organs—especially important for those experiencing lingering respiratory and neurological symptoms.

Studies suggest that HBOT can stimulate cell regeneration, enhance mitochondrial function, and promote better circulation—all key factors in overcoming the lingering effects of COVID-19. It has shown promising results in restoring energy levels, improving cognitive clarity, reducing shortness of breath, and helping the body recover from prolonged stress caused by the virus.

At MD Hyperbaric, our experienced medical team tailors each treatment plan to meet the unique needs of Long COVID patients. We are dedicated to supporting your recovery with safe, non-invasive care that helps you regain control of your health and vitality.

If you’re struggling with the long-term effects of COVID-19, we can help. Contact your nearest MD Hyperbaric today to learn how Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can be an essential part of your recovery journey and help you breathe easier, think clearer, and feel stronger again.

What are the Benefits of COVID-19 Long Haul Treatment?

HBOT at MD Hyperbaric offers key benefits for treating long COVID, including:

Reduced chronic fatigue
Improved memory, focus, and reduced brain fog

Candidates for long COVID treatment are individuals with persistent symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, and shortness of breath after the acute phase of the virus. Those who have not found relief with traditional treatments and show signs of ongoing inflammation or impaired oxygenation may particularly benefit from HBOT as an alternative recovery option for long COVID.

How Does HBOT Help With Long COVID-19?

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) offers a unique approach for those battling long COVID. In a pressurized chamber, patients breathe 100% oxygen, dramatically boosting blood and tissue oxygen levels. This increase helps activate healing, reduce inflammation, and strengthen immune function, directly targeting long COVID symptoms and supporting a smoother, more complete recovery.
