Holistic therapy for long and post-COVID symptoms at BrandauVital
Viruses and bacteria in our lives
Chronic fatigue, brain fog, depression and unexplained pain, autoimmune disorders and inflammation
01
Caused
The mitochondria, our energy cells, are attacked by cytokines in addition to our previous illnesses.
02
Hormone Function
Hormones are misdirected and depleted during detoxification, putting the system under extreme stress. This places a huge strain on the adrenal glands.
03
Brain
function
Neurotransmitters are influenced by countless metabolic processes, which in turn affect our brain.
04
Colon
The entry point, our digestive system and intestines are affected.
What are long-term COVID and post-COVID? Causes and symptoms
Long-COVID and post-COVID describe conditions in which those affected suffer from various health problems for weeks or even months after recovering from a COVID-19 infection. Even after a mild infection, these persistent symptoms can occur and significantly impact daily life. According to current estimates, approximately 10-30% of people struggle with long-term consequences after a COVID infection.
Causes of Long-COVID and Post-COVID
The exact causes of Long-COVID are not yet fully understood, but there are several factors that may play a role:
- Inflammatory processes: During the infection, persistent inflammatory reactions can occur in the body, which continue even after the acute phase and put a strain on various organs and systems.
- Mitochondrial dysfunction: Mitochondria, the "powerhouses" of our cells, are responsible for energy production. COVID-19 can impair their function, leading to chronic fatigue and lack of energy.
- Immune system dysregulation: Excessive activation of the immune system during infection can lead to a condition in which the immune system is no longer properly regulated. This can result in chronic inflammation and increased susceptibility to infections.
- Vascular and nerve damage: COVID-19 can damage blood vessels and the nervous system, leading to long-term circulatory and neurological problems.
Common symptoms of long-COVID and post-COVID
The symptoms of long-term and post-COVID are varied and can differ significantly from person to person. The most common complaints include:
- Chronic fatigue and exhaustion: Deep, persistent tiredness that is hardly improved by sleep or rest is one of the most common symptoms. Those affected often feel listless and physically weak.
- Breathing difficulties: Many patients continue to experience difficulty breathing or shortness of breath long after infection, even with slight exertion.
- Concentration and memory problems (“brain fog”): Memory problems and the feeling of “brain fog” impair cognitive performance and thinking ability.
- Muscle pain and joint problems: Pain and stiffness in muscles and joints are common, which limits physical resilience.
- Cardiovascular problems: Rapid heartbeat, chest pain and irregular heartbeat often occur and can further reduce physical capacity.
- Mood and sleep disorders: Insomnia, anxiety and depression are also common long-term consequences and exacerbate general exhaustion and malaise.
- Loss of smell and taste: Some affected individuals report impaired senses of smell and taste even months after infection.
Holistic approach to the treatment of long-COVID and post-COVID at BrandauVital
The persistent symptoms of long-term and post-COVID require comprehensive, holistic treatment. At BrandauVital, we work to understand the causes of these symptoms and treat them at their root. Through a combination of mitochondrial therapy, nutritional support, immune modulation, and specific regeneration techniques, we help those affected regain their energy and quality of life and sustainably promote the healing process.

Why is COVID different?
COVID-19, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has some unique characteristics that distinguish it from many other viruses, particularly in terms of its mode of transmission, binding to human cells, and the response of the immune system.
1. High transferability:
SARS-CoV-2 is extremely contagious due to its ability to spread via droplets, aerosols, and possibly also surfaces. This distinguishes it from viruses like MERS and SARS-CoV-1, which are also coronaviruses but less contagious. Its high transmissibility is closely linked to the virus's stability in the environment and its adaptation to the human lungs.
2. Spike protein and ACE2 receptor:
SARS-CoV-2 uses the so-called *spike protein* to bind to the *ACE2 receptor* on human cells, particularly in the lungs and other organs. The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein has a higher affinity for this receptor than many other viruses, which increases its infectivity and spread within the human body.
3. Symptom diversity and asymptomatic infections:
SARS-CoV-2 can cause a wide range of symptoms, from mild to severe respiratory problems, as well as neurological and gastrointestinal issues. Many infected individuals show no symptoms at all but are still contagious, making virus control particularly difficult. This high rate of asymptomatic carriers distinguishes SARS-CoV-2 from other viruses, such as the influenza virus, where asymptomatic cases are less common.
4. Long-lasting immune and systemic stress (Long-COVID):
Unlike many other viral infections, SARS-CoV-2 causes long-term health problems in some patients, known as long COVID. These affect the nervous system, metabolism, and cardiovascular system, leading to chronic fatigue and other symptoms that can persist for months after infection. Such lasting effects are less common with other viruses.
5. Interaction with the immune system:
SARS-CoV-2 can affect the immune system in a particular way and, in some cases, trigger an excessive immune response known as a cytokine storm. This can cause serious tissue damage and organ failure and is one of the main causes of the high mortality rate in severe COVID-19 cases.
These characteristics make SARS-CoV-2 a challenging virus that has required intensive research and control measures worldwide.
Our research has shown that if the human body already has other weaknesses, the immune system is no longer able to tolerate the coronavirus, especially the spike proteins and the adjuvants in the vaccine. Therefore, our approach is to support the body holistically and regulate the immune system so that the body regains the strength to self-regulate.
How can BrandauVital support during Long-COVID?
Supporting the elimination capacity of the organs
Make the brain aware that spikes need to be reduced.
Correct nutrient deficiencies and adjust diet
Dissolve inflammation with papimi and frequencies
Changing and supporting everyday lifestyles
Mental & Emotional Stabilization & Resolution
Hormone, neurotransmitter & adrenal stabilization
Stimulate the immune system to self-regulate
Our treatment approach:
Recovery through holistic therapy
On site
The diagnostic appointment usually lasts 3-4 hours. If you are coming from further away, we work with block appointments so that patients from further away can also benefit from our strategy.
We work with a holistic and causal anamnesis followed by a therapy plan.
Online
We can send you certain diagnostic tools. Most therapy methods can also be carried out at home. We can take the first steps online and, for example, schedule a two-day intensive session. Afterwards, we will continue to support and guide you.
Academy
In our academy, you'll receive further support to truly experience your goal of health and vitality. Illness never comes overnight, and it never goes away overnight either. But we can alleviate symptoms overnight.

We are the only ones who not only address the mitochondria in relation to the body, but also include mental experiences and causes.
