LONG COVID
An Osteopathic Reaset Treatment can help
For some people, the coronavirus (COVID-19) can cause symptoms that last weeks or months after the infection has gone. This is sometimes called post-COVID-19 syndrome or "long COVID.” Scientific research explains that the persistent symptoms in long COVID are caused by increased sensitivity of the central nervous system (CNS) and/or relate it to dysautonomia - a medical condition caused by problems with the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Of great concern is that new research shows changes in the size of certain parts of the brain due to COVID-19.
ABOUT LONG COVID
The time it takes to recover from COVID-19 is different for everyone. Many people feel better in a few days or weeks, and most recover completely in 12 weeks. People who had mild symptoms at first may still have long-term problems. But for some people, the symptoms may last longer. The risk of having long-term symptoms does seem to be related to the health status of the person at the time they receive COVID-19.

LONG COVID IS A CNS / ANS DISORDER
A study from the VUB and UZ Brussel demonstrated that symptoms of increased sensitivity of the nervous system (CNS) occurs in more than 70% of patients with long-term disorders after contracting COVID-19 which leads to diffuse but serious disorders.
Other studies link the symptoms of long COVID to the failure or dysregulation of the sympathetic, or parasympathetic components of the ANS (dysautonomia). |

OSTEOPATHIC REASET TREATMENT
An Osteopathic Reaset Treatment (ORT) is a holistic healthcare approach that maintains the normal balance between the body’s many systems. While osteopathy acts on the mechanical, fluidic, organic and neuromuscular levels through gentle mobilisations and adjustments, REASET focuses more on the craniosacral and fascia system. It aids in unwinding the body and easing the mind through the direct and indirect influence on the autonomic nervous system. Together, they offer an integral and functional health and wellbeing approach for body and mind.

TREATING LONG COVID
As with any classical osteopathic treatment, the goal with patients suffering from long COVID is to bring balance to the bodies structure and function relationship and lift any vascular or neurological obstructions but on top of this the osteopath will pay specific attention to improve ANS functioning and facilitating the relaxation response through:

What is a health reaset?
In this interview with Murat and Christian (3.47) I explain, with the use of a toroflux , what a resilience reaset is.
When is a Body-centred Stress Coaching treatment for you?
|
In general I recommend osteopathy when your symptoms are mainly physical, while Body-centred Stress Coaching is recommended when you have physical and non-physical symptoms, during periods of change or increased demands and after an accident or trauma. Body-centred stress coaching is also recommended for therapists needing support and high sensitive people.
When unsure please use the Stress Symptoms Checklist and/or the Holmes and Rahe Stress Scale |
Are you looking for an osteopath?

As an osteopath (M.Sc., D.O. OSD) and Body-centred Stress Coach I specialise in helping you to heal, cope better, feel, and stay strong from within, become aware of behaviours that generate ill-being (e.g., stress, depression, anxiety, pain), but also raise your awareness on how to make self-directed choices that foster well-being:
My approach is especially suited
Often it is overlooked that the body in or after important life changes or when you're on a journey of personal development, experiences more stress than usual and that muscle tensions, but also a neurohormonal disbalance, reduced resistance and digestive problems can occur.
Then weeks or months later you suddenly feel depleted, lack motivation, or suffer from physical problems like a blocked neck or back. You might have reoccurring colds or infections, migraines and/or unexplained psychological problems (depression, anxiety, ...) and/or behavioural complaints (being more forgetful, mood swings, become more intolerant....). In an advanced stage this can create a feeling of the body and mind not being aligned any more and/or experience symptoms for which no real clinical diagnosis can be given by regular doctors.
When you recognize these in you don't hesitate to make an appointment and I will help you back into health and find balance. I might not be able to solve your problems but I can help you to cope and feel better.
I can also help you with general complaints for which you can consult an osteopath: acute or chronic neck, shoulder and back pain, headache, pelvis, knee and foot problems etc.
As a health futurist, I don't only reflect on upcoming challenges to our health and well-being I also develop and offer preventive treatments and training. For example I'm the first Osteopath for Private Astronauts and Space Tourists. Just like spatial orientation training, a zero-gravity flight and flight simulation are essential to prepare this exciting new experience so does the body need to be prepared, to cope with the added stresses like 3G, weightlessness and increased levels of anxiety. The Osteopathic Reaset Approach with body-centred stress coaching is the ideal formula to prepare body, mind and spirit to make the most of this unique experience. Read my article on this
You have another health challenge or you're not sure if I can help you? Send me an email or call me for information and if I can not help you I will, if possible, search for a solution.
Be good to you, always.

★★★★★ Hey Tom, je bent “echt” wel een soort van wonderdokter! Deze avond begon mijn lichamelijke energie wat terug te komen en ik ontdek dat ik terug kan dansen!!! Dat ging de afgelopen 2 jaar totaal niet meer omwille van rugblokkades... Verder vielen vandaag een aantal geblokkeerde zaken op hun plaats :-)))
(Persoon wenst anoniem te blijven)

★★★★★ I felt heavy and uncomfortable in my own body. Tom brought me back to life and made me feel again. I feel like I'm floating, I know that I walk straighter than I have in years and I'm not in pain. I feel amazing! Thank you, Tom! If you need an osteopath in Brussels, this is the man to go to!
