Long COVID Syndrome Treatment

Symptoms of Long COVID can vary widely between individuals and may fluctuate over time. Common symptoms include persistent fatigue, muscle and joint pain, shortness of breath, brain fog, poor concentration, and headaches. Many patients also experience sleep disturbances, reduced exercise tolerance, low mood, and ongoing inflammation-related discomfort. These symptoms may persist even after mild initial infection and can interfere with work, physical activity, and overall wellbeing.

The exact cause of Long COVID is still being researched, but it is believed to involve a combination of prolonged inflammatory response, immune system dysregulation, impaired mitochondrial function, and reduced oxygen delivery at a cellular level. Ongoing tissue inflammation and delayed recovery following viral infection can prevent the body from returning to normal physiological balance, leading to persistent symptoms long after the acute illness has resolved.

NovoTHOR® whole-body red light therapy delivers clinically proven wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to the entire body simultaneously. This light penetrates deep into tissues, stimulating cellular energy production and supporting natural healing processes. Treatment helps to reduce systemic inflammation, improve circulation and oxygenation, support muscle and joint recovery, and enhance mitochondrial function.
Whole-body red light therapy is particularly beneficial for Long COVID patients experiencing widespread symptoms such as fatigue, muscle pain, and reduced stamina, where localised treatments alone may not be sufficient.

Each session typically lasts 10–20 minutes, with the body comfortably positioned inside the NovoTHOR® system.

Treatment plans are individualised. Many patients begin to notice improvements after several sessions, with a course of treatments recommended over a number of weeks for optimal benefit.

No. NovoTHOR® therapy is completely painless and non-invasive. Most patients find sessions relaxing and comfortable.

There is no downtime. Patients can return to normal daily activities immediately after treatment.

Red light therapy is very safe. Side effects are rare, and the treatment does not involve heat, UV exposure, or medication.
