Post-COVID: Therapy and Counseling

At the Confraternität Private Hospital, we support you after you have suffered from COVID-19 or in overcoming health problems caused by a lockdown or quarantine.

Post-COVID check and lockdown effects

Restricted opportunities to make social contacts or quarantine can trigger or worsen health problems. This concerns in particular:

• Cardiovascular diseases
• Overweight
• Chronic diseases such as asthma
• Psychological stress due to lockdown or quarantine experiences
• Fears and worries about a past or possible COVID-19 illness
• Feeling of loneliness due to social distancing

With the post-COVID check, our specialists will help you get your health back under control. A detailed initial medical consultation and an examination takes place with the head of our program, Prim. Norbert Muzika (specialist in internal medicine and cardiology). In the course of this, you will jointly determine whether further investigations are advisable. The team at our Prevention Center will be happy to organize this for you.

Long COVID treatment: rehabilitation after a Covid-19 illness

In the course of a COVID-19 illness, after the acute phase, there are often longer-term symptoms, which are summarized under the term "Long COVID". These can, for example, entail the following long-term consequences:

• Breathing difficulties, cough
• Muscle weakness and pain
• Mental problems
• Fatigue, reduced ability to concentrate

We are now offering a post-COVID rehabilitation program to improve your health in the long term and to restore your physical and mental performance after an infection with the coronavirus. Persistent symptoms can affect the lungs and respiratory tract, the cardiovascular system, the musculoskeletal system and your mental well-being. In order to guarantee you the best possible rehabilitation, the various disciplines work closely together.
