BENEFITS

REOXYGENATION
The Covid long cure combined with a spa treatment encourages a change of climatic environment that is beneficial to the respiratory system. For three weeks, the person benefits from the advice and attention of a whole team of professionals who take it in turns. Of course, physical activities in our mid-range mountain environment help to re-oxygenate and mobilise the respiratory system. 
The aim of the cure is to achieve a functional improvement in the problems identified and a gradual return to a more normal life. There are two other consultations during the course of the treatment, one halfway through and the other at the end, to reassess the patient's condition at the end of the three weeks of treatment and activities. In the event of anosmia, the doctor will provide an "olfactory training" programme to be carried out on a daily basis at home.

A NATURAL TREATMENT
The cure can help reduce dependence on medication. 

QUALITY OF LIFE
Covid is a pathology that greatly affects your daily life. The Saint-Gervais spa cure is an ideal alternative for treating the respiratory tract.

EXCHANGE SHARE
Covid Long is a multi-system disorder that causes a great deal of suffering and disability. To date, there is no known cure and patients suffering from it often feel abandoned. This emerging pathology requires a tailored range of treatments, orchestrated by a multidisciplinary team. During the cure, you'll be able to talk to qualified professionals as well as people from all walks of life. It's a great way to break the isolation caused by your illness, and to share your experiences and the difficulties of everyday life.
