WEBINAR: Managing fatigue, cognitive dysfunction, and breathlessness
A webinar outlining strategies and considerations for clients who have recovered from COVID, with a specific focus on educating Pilates teachers.
The World Health Organization (2021) defines Post COVID-19 condition (Long Covid) as:
[a condition that] occurs in individuals with a history of probable or confirmed SARS CoV-2 infection, usually 3 months from the onset of COVID-19 with symptoms that last for at least 2 months and cannot be explained by an alternative diagnosis. Common symptoms include fatigue, shortness of breath, cognitive dysfunction but also others and generally have an impact on everyday functioning. Symptoms may be new-onset following initial recovery from an acute COVID-19 episode or persist from the initial illness. Symptoms may also fluctuate or relapse over time.
This webinar will educate instructors to recognise some of the effects of post COVID infection, particularly the lingering symptoms of fatigue that can become what is known as Long COVID.
