Long Covid
HBOT studies show:
New help for “Long Covid” symptoms!
A new study has shown that hyperbaric oxygen therapy (Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy = HBOT) can reverse the age-related decline in brain functions. This groundbreaking therapy could now revolutionize the way we look at aging and the mental limitations that come with it .
What is HBOT?
Long Covid, also known as post-Covid syndrome, affects many people worldwide and leads to persistent symptoms such as fatigue, mental impairment and depression. A promising treatment for these symptoms is hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). This therapy has shown significant improvements in studies and now offers hope for all those affected!
In detail:
- Reduction of tiredness and exhaustion HBOT has been shown to be extremely effective in reducing fatigue, one of the most common and distressing symptoms of Long Covid. Studies show that patients report significant improvements in their physical energy and a reduction in fatigue after HBOT sessions.
- Improvement of cognitive functions (“brain fog”) Long Covid often leads to mental impairments such as dysexecutiveity, also known as “brain fog”. HBOT has been shown in studies to improve executive function (control and regulation of our behavior and thinking) by increasing blood flow and brain microstructure in areas such as BA10, BA8, and BA6. These changes contribute to better mental performance and make it easier for those affected to return to their normal lives and everyday work.
- Reduction and relief of depression and anxiety Psychiatric symptoms such as depression and anxiety are common in Long Covid. HBOT has shown significant improvements in these symptoms in studies. The therapy increases perfusion (blood flow to a tissue or organ) and improves the microstructure in the brain, especially in the upper corona radiata, leading to a reduction in depression and anxiety. These positive effects are particularly important for the mental health and general well-being of those affected by Long Covid.
- Pain Many Long Covid patients suffer from diffuse muscle and joint pain. HBOT has been shown to significantly improve these pain disorders. The therapy promotes blood circulation and reduces inflammation, which leads to noticeable pain relief and improves the quality of life of those affected.

Result
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) offers a promising treatment option for those affected by Long Covid. It reduces tiredness and fatigue, improves cognitive (mental) functions and relieves depression and anxiety. In addition, HBOT shows positive effects in pain relief. These benefits can significantly increase the quality of life of Long Covid patients and help them return to a normal life more quickly.
