Are you experiencing persistent fatigue, shortness of breath, nausea, palpitations, or difficulty concentrating long after recovering from COVID-19? These symptoms could be signs of long COVID, or post-COVID syndrome. Long COVID can significantly impact a person’s quality of life, making it challenging for individuals with severe symptoms to perform daily tasks. In some cases, it may even pose life-threatening risks.

There are currently no cures for long COVID in Western medicine, but traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) can relieve the condition’s diverse range of symptoms. Mr. Li Chiu Yin, a registered TCM practitioner from Hong Kong, has shared successful cases and treatment methods for long-COVID symptoms on a YouTube program. Additionally, he provides some valuable tips on incorporating dietary adjustments and utilizing specific acupressure points that can effectively alleviate asthma symptoms.
