Long COVID (also called post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection, or PASC) Long COVID can impact immune regulation, and many people experience autoimmune disease symptoms. Common COVID symptoms for long COVI patients include:
The symptom patterns are often complex and overlapping, simply treating the symptoms might not suffice. Our team uses a root-cause model: we begin with advanced diagnostics (brain mapping, neurological and orthopedic exams, postural analysis) to pinpoint physiological inflammation and neurological dysfunction. From there, we design personalized care plans combining therapies like chiropractic adjustments, neurofeedback, HBOT, and functional medicine to support overall health and long-term recovery.
In HBOT, you lie in a chamber where pressure is increased and you breathe pure oxygen. That allows oxygen to dissolve more into the blood plasma and reach tissues more deeply. This is especially helpful for tissues with limited circulation or inflammation.
Within neurological tissue, HBOT may:
In systemic tissues, HBOT may:
At Apex Chiropractic & Wellness Center, HBOT is one of multiple treatment options used to support recovery. It works together with chiropractic care, neurofeedback, laser therapy, soft tissue rehabilitation, and functional medicine to provide a multi-modal strategy.
Research into hyperbaric oxygen therapy has accelerated as long COVID continues to affect covid patients worldwide. Many individuals with lingering COVID symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, and chronic pain are seeking lasting solutions beyond conventional care.
HBOT treatments are now being studied in clinical trials as an emerging therapy with the potential to support both neurological and systemic recovery. Early results suggest that regular oxygen therapy sessions can improve memory, attention, and energy while reducing inflammation and musculoskeletal pain.
Clinical trials have also highlighted HBOT’s role in supporting neuroplasticity and immune regulation, two areas strongly linked to post-covid complications. Although more large-scale studies are needed, the growing body of evidence indicates that HBOT may serve as an important treatment option for long covid patients.
At Apex Chiropractic & Wellness Center, we integrate these research findings with advanced diagnostics and personalized care plans to provide safe, evidence-informed therapies.
When you come to Apex for HBOT, the session happens in a controlled, comfortable environment supervised by trained staff [link to: “how safe is hyperbaric oxygen therapy”].
Your treatment is tailored to your specific COVID symptoms and diagnostic results, whether neurological, inflammatory, or systemic. HBOT can be particularly valuable during post COVID recovery because of its ability to reduce inflammation and restore function at the cellular level.
During an oxygen therapy session, you will relax inside a pressurized chamber while breathing pure oxygen. This process increases the amount of oxygen carried in your bloodstream, helping tissues repair and reducing inflammation often associated with long COVID. HBOT treatments are non-invasive, and many COVID patients find the sessions calming once they become familiar with the process.
Throughout the session, your care team monitors you closely and provides guidance on breathing and pressure adjustment. This supportive approach allows you to focus on recovery while the therapy works at a cellular level to improve energy, cognition, and overall function.
Preparing for HBOT sessions can make a real difference in how COVID patients respond to treatment. By following a few simple steps, you can maximize comfort, improve results, and give your care team the information they need to guide you effectively.
These practical steps, combined with consistent communication, help ensure that each oxygen therapy session is both safe and effective. With the right preparation, long covid patients can build a stronger foundation for recovery and lasting wellness.
If you or someone you love continues to endure lingering symptoms of long COVID, hyperbaric oxygen therapy at Apex Chiropractic & Wellness Center could be an important part of your path to healing. Our neurologically based model combines advanced diagnostics (neurological and orthopedic exam, brain mapping, postural analysis) with integrative therapies like HBOT, chiropractic care, neurofeedback, laser therapy, soft tissue rehabilitation, and functional medicine. Together these services target the root causes of dysfunction and support long-term recovery.
