Long Covid
“The programme has completely changed my day-to-day life for the better.”
Before I came to Vitality360
I felt very unwell on a day-to-day basis after suffering some months ago from suspected COVID-19. My symptoms were triggered by cognitive activities and concentration, meaning my office job was contributing to my ill health and I spent most of my free time recovering.
After several unsuccessful appointments for help/direction/a diagnosis from the GP, I felt very lost, frustrated, and didn’t know where to turn. I was left wondering would I ever get better? Could I continue in my job? Despite support from friends and family, I felt very isolated.

How has the programmes helped you to regain some vitality?
The programme with Vitality360 helped me closely track my day-to-day activities & identify patterns & previously unknown triggers. They also helped with a consistent sleep routine (which has improved my sleep dramatically) along with hydration & a general daily routine which have all helped control my symptoms.

In terms of physical activity, Vitality360 have helped set out a plan to gradually increase my physical activity whilst keeping my symptoms & ill health at bay.
In addition to this, Vitality360 supported me at work, recommending temporary adjustments to help me control symptoms & gradually return to better health.
How did the clinician(s) support you in this process?
The sessions with my clinician were invaluable. Finally feeling understood was quite emotional for me after months of suffering without guidance or direction.
It felt like at each step along the journey, she was there with me and able to provide support bespoke to me. Her friendly, knowledgeable, and encouraging approach played a big part in my progress and drive.
The programme has equipped me with tools to help manage any symptoms going forward & to support me with my recovery.
What was the most beneficial aspect of the programme overall?
I felt understood and empowered to improve my overall health and quality of life. After suffering for many months, I am so thrilled and relieved at the change in just a short time. Vitality360 were an absolute lifeline to me, and I feel lucky that I am finally getting my life back thanks to their support.
