Long COVID

Long COVID can leave you dealing with fatigue, weakness, brain fog, and shortness of breath long after the initial infection. At Atomic Physical Therapy, we provide specialized Long COVID rehabilitation to help you restore strength, improve endurance, and safely return to the activities you enjoy.

For many people, COVID-19 symptoms don’t end when the infection clears. Long COVID, also known as post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2, can cause ongoing physical and cognitive challenges that interfere with daily life. Common symptoms include persistent fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath, exercise intolerance, dizziness, and difficulty concentrating. At Atomic Physical Therapy, our Long COVID rehabilitation programs in Boulder and Broomfield focus on gradual, safe reconditioning while respecting your body’s current limits. We help you improve mobility, rebuild strength, restore balance, and manage fatigue using evidence-based pacing strategies and post-viral rehabilitation principles.

How Physical Therapy Helps with Long COVID

Physical therapy can help you regain function while avoiding post-exertional symptom flare-ups. Our approach combines gentle strength training, mobility work, breathing exercises, and graded activity progression to restore endurance and improve overall well-being — all while carefully monitoring your tolerance.
