LONG COVID

What is Long COVID

While many people recover from COVID-19 within a few weeks, some continue to experience symptoms for a longer period. In some cases, individuals develop ongoing or new health issues after the initial infection. This prolonged condition is now widely recognized and is commonly referred to as Long COVID—a term originally coined by communities affected by the virus to highlight the persistence and wide range of symptoms.

Long COVID in Children

Long COVID doesn’t only affect adults—research shows that approximately 14% of children may develop ongoing symptoms after a COVID-19 infection. Statistically, this means that in a typical classroom, 2 to 4 children could experience Long COVID.

How Can Salt Therapy Help

Salt Therapy, also known as Halotherapy, is a natural treatment that has long been used to support people with respiratory conditions such as asthma, chronic bronchitis, allergic rhinitis, and COPD. The therapy works through the inhalation of microscopic salt particles, which may help to reduce airway inflammation, loosen and clear mucus, and support overall respiratory function.

For individuals experiencing Long COVID, lingering symptoms often include breathlessness, coughing, chest tightness, and reduced lung function. Because Halotherapy has shown benefits in managing chronic respiratory issues, it may also provide supportive relief for post-COVID respiratory complications, helping ease discomfort and improve breathing quality over time.

How Often Should You Come

For individuals with Long COVID, a structured course of 20–30 Salt Therapy sessions is generally recommended to achieve lasting benefits. Sessions are most effective when attended 2–3 times per week, giving the lungs consistent exposure to the therapeutic effects of inhaled salt particles.
