Long Covid/ Autoimmune Disease
Autoimmune Disease and Long COVID Treatment Options
Autoimmune diseases can profoundly impact every aspect of your life, often leaving you searching for relief where western medicine has fallen short. If this resonates with you, consider exploring our integrative and natural healing therapies, which offer gentle and innovative solutions.
The effects of Long COVID are still largely a mystery in the medical community, and conventional medical approaches may not adequately address its complex symptoms or offer the relief you have been searching for.

At Wildflower Acupuncture, we go beyond treating just the symptoms of autoimmune diseases and Long COVID. We embrace a whole-patient approach, focused on restoring your vitality and health. Here, we listen deeply, respecting your experiences and symptoms, and work closely with you to uncover and address the root causes of your condition. We use acupuncture, herbal medicine, frequency specific microcurrent, ozone therapy, and other integrative modalities to treat the underlying pattern and symptoms of autoimmune conditions and long covid. Together, we'll craft a path towards lasting wellness, helping you reconnect with the activities and passions that make your life fulfilling.
What is Long COVID and How Do I Know if I Have Long COVID?
Acupuncture for Relief of Autoimmune Disease & Long COVID Symptoms
Long COVID involves a range of symptoms that can appear and persist long after the initial recovery from a COVID-19 infection, sometimes emerging months later and potentially lasting for years. As the medical community continues to research the underlying causes and seek effective treatments, many find that conventional western medicine has yet to fully understand or address the profound impacts on both physical and mental health that long COVID can bring. Common long COVID symptoms include:
​
-
Chronic severe fatigue
-
Disinterest in or inability to participate in hobbies, work, exercise, or maintain relationships with family and friends
-
Trouble with balance, walking, and mobility
-
Breathing, respiratory problems, and chronic cough
-
Gastrointestinal issues
-
Neurological symptoms and cognitive issues
-
Joint and muscle pain
-
Mental health symptoms like depression, anxiety, and fear
-
Skin rashes and irritation
-
Ear, nose, and throat issues
​
Since there's no definitive test for diagnosing long COVID, and its symptoms can fluctuate or delay in appearance after a COVID-19 infection, many patients feel that their concerns are often dismissed by doctors and medical professionals, leaving them without the support they need. However, licensed acupuncturist Laura Mann approaches these challenges with deep compassion and a wealth of experience. She is committed to finding enduring solutions for those suffering from long COVID symptoms and helps many patients find relief.
Acupuncture is a gentle drug-free treatment option that can bring significant relief and vitality to those suffering from autoimmune diseases. It helps modulate the immune response, reduce inflammation, and reduce pain, which are common in conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. Acupuncture also helps restore balance to the autonomic nervous system, promoting a deep sense of calm and wellbeing.
Acupuncture also offers a natural and effective way to address the complex symptoms of long COVID, providing relief where traditional western medicine often falls short. This innovative approach can significantly reduce inflammation, pain, low grade fever, and fatigue, which are common challenges for those recovering from long COVID. Acupuncture and herbal medicine are also used to release lingering pathogens and infections from the body and clear out toxic heat. In addition, it aids in improving circulation, which may reduce cardiovascular symptoms like shortness of breath and heart palpitations. By fostering a balanced immune response and enhancing overall well-being, acupuncture can be a cornerstone of recovery, giving individuals the support they need to heal and reclaim their vitality.
For autoimmune conditions and long covid, Laura focuses on using acupuncture and other alternative therapies to help clear lingering infections, reduce toxic heat and inflammation, and promote a balanced immune response. She also offers personalized guidance on dietary and lifestyle changes to boost overall health and wellness, ultimately helping to restore energy levels and improve quality of life. Her approach is not just about treating symptoms but fostering a deeper, lasting recovery and a return to wellbeing.​
