Summary

Long COVID-19 can be a confusing problem to navigate. Long Haulers feel as though they have little control over their symptoms. Severe fatigue, breathlessness, brain fog, pain and more, can worsen in what seems like a random fashion. We understand that even mild physical activity can make your symptoms worse. Cornerstone’s program helps you understand your symptoms, and regain control while slowly increasing activity at the rate your body can tolerate.
