You may not know you’ve been infected by the virus that causes COVID-19. It has been reported that not everyone exposed to COVID-19 gets Covid or shows symptoms even if they were “infected”. Some have reported not ever getting Covid but still experience post-COVID conditions (PCC) or long COVID reported by those who did recover from symptoms.
Acupuncture cannot treat Covid, but can help with some post-COVID conditions commonly reported such as:
- Tiredness or fatigue that interferes with daily life
- Symptoms that get worse after physical or mental effort (also known as “post-exertional malaise”)
- Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
- Cough
- Difficulty thinking or concentrating (sometimes referred to as “brain fog”)
- Headache
- Sleep problems
- Depression or anxiety
- Diarrhea
- Stomach pain
- Joint or muscle pain
- Rash, hives or redness
- Changes in menstrual cycles

Acupuncture has a strong ability to find areas of your body that have been weakened as a result of Covid or other illness and help to restore balance.
We have been getting some very positive results in our office with acupuncture and oriental medicine for improving long covid symptoms. Patients have been experiencing more energy, less aches and pains, and better breathing, as some of the most consistent improvements.
If you are having chronic health symptoms that you feel may be related to covid and don’t seem to be going away, we cant impress enough the value of getting an acupuncture evaluation, it can give you your life back!
If you have questions about your health, or would like to schedule an Acupuncture evaluation, Email us at Lakeview Center Chiropractic, or call (425) 889-4701.
Sincerely,
