Having COVID is one thing but around 30-40% of people who have had COVID are going on to develop “long COVID” or what’s also referred to as long haulers. In this episode Nat shares her personal experience of being a long hauler plus why she was placed in a position to begin to treat hundreds of people suffering from this condition.
She shares;
+ Her own personal story and being sick when it wasn’t ok to have COVID
+ How her being transparent about being sick put her in a position where others started coming to her for support simply because they knew nobody else who had it
+ Why she ended up seeing so many patients for support and recovery
+ The difference between COVID and long COVID
+ What puts people at risk of becoming a long hauler
+ How we can borrow from history to help us navigate the virus and find comfort and education in this
+ The 5 different factors to consider in tailoring a treatment plan for long haulers
+ Other factors which impact recovery (nutrition, movement etc)
And more!
Nat would love to learn how you enjoyed this episode.
