/ Biohacking for Long COVID

Tackling Chronic Fatigue

/ Pioneering Approach

The first in a series exploring how biohacking can support recovery, performance and wellbeing.

At Mount Med Resort, we take a pioneering approach to preventive health and recovery. Biohacking – once a niche concept – has become central to modern wellness, blending science, technology and lifestyle strategies to optimise the body’s natural functions.

Biohacking for long COVID offers innovative, evidence-based tools to support the body’s recovery and promote lasting restoration.

Long COVID and chronic fatigue syndrome continue to affect thousands, leaving many with lingering exhaustion, brain fog and disrupted sleep. For those seeking more than conventional medicine can offer, biohacking presents a promising path to recovery – combining lifestyle science, personalised therapies and targeted technologies.

/ Tailored Nutrition & Supplementation

Supporting the body starts with what you feed it. Anti-inflammatory foods like leafy greens, oily fish and berries can ease immune overdrive, while supplements such as vitamin D, magnesium and amino acids help restore energy and repair at a cellular level. These are key elements of the Long & Post COVID – Chronic Fatigue MEDolution at Mount Med Resort.

/ Smart Stress for Cellular Repair

Gentle, controlled stressors – such as short fasting periods, infrared saunas or cold exposure – can help kickstart your body’s own repair mechanisms. These methods encourage mitochondrial health and detoxification, laying the groundwork for increased resilience and vitality.

/ Non-Invasive Neuromodulation: Light, Sound & Deep Relaxation

Among the most innovative tools for long COVID recovery is a reclining, pod-like device that combines pulsed light, gentle sound frequencies and low-intensity vibrations to promote deep relaxation and cognitive restoration. During a typical session, users simply lie back while soft light pulses through a visor in sync with calming binaural beats played through headphones. Subtle vibrations through the seat further enhance relaxation and help rebalance the nervous system.

These sessions go beyond relaxation – they actively stimulate brain regions involved in memory, decision-making and emotional regulation. By combining chromotherapy, sound therapy and guided neuro-meditation, the treatment encourages alpha and theta brainwave activity, which are associated with deep restorative states.

A 2023 randomised controlled trial found that a four-week programme using this method significantly improved cognitive function in individuals recovering from post-viral fatigue. Additional studies have shown benefits in sleep quality, stress reduction and mental clarity.

Crucially, these therapies also activate the parasympathetic nervous system – the body’s natural ‘rest and digest’ mode – helping to reduce inflammation and support meaningful mental recovery.

/ Integrative Therapies in a Clinical Wellness Setting

At Mount Med Resort, the Post-COVID and Chronic Fatigue programme takes a fully integrative approach to recovery. Alongside neuroscience and personalised nutrition, guests benefit from medical diagnostics, oxygen therapy, physiotherapy and stress-reducing practices such as breathwork and guided relaxation. This holistic environment allows for targeted biohacking strategies to be delivered in a medically supervised setting – combining cutting-edge science with natural recovery to restore balance, build resilience and support long-term health.

Biohacking

Biohacking provides a structured, science-backed way to support healing – and this series will continue to explore how it can enhance health, balance and wellbeing.
