Living with Long-COVID can feel like your body has forgotten how to function normally. You may have been told "it's just stress" or "give it time," while experiencing very real, debilitating symptoms that affect every aspect of your life.
At Biio, we understand that Long-COVID is a complex, multi-system condition that requires comprehensive, evidence-based care.
We integrate immediate symptom relief strategies with root-cause focused interventions, creating personalised care plans that address the viral aftermath affecting your autonomic nervous system, immune function, and cellular energy production.
Whether you're dealing with crushing fatigue, brain fog, exercise intolerance, or autonomic dysfunction—you'll have a dedicated team who understands the science behind your symptoms and knows how to help.

We offer comprehensive assessments to diagnose and manage Long-COVID, addressing the multi-system nature of this condition. Our approach includes thorough post-viral assessments, education on fatigue and energy management, strategies for managing brain fog and cognitive symptoms, and techniques for addressing autonomic dysfunction. We work with patients to develop personalised recovery plans that fit their current capacity and gradually build toward improved function.
We offer comprehensive strategies to manage Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), a condition frequently co-occurring with chronic fatigue, long-COVID and EDS. Our approach includes education on lifestyle modifications, exercises to improve cardiovascular conditioning, hydration and nutrition advice, and techniques for managing symptoms like dizziness and fatigue. We work with patients to develop personalised strategies that fit their daily lives and improve their ability to function with POTS.
Dysautonomia rarely exists in isolation—it emerges from the complex interplay of genetics, infections, trauma, hormonal disruption, and immune dysfunction. Our integrative practitioners identify and address these underlying drivers while supporting your autonomic nervous system's capacity for regulation. Through targeted supplementation, nutrient repletion, and evidence-based natural therapies, we work to restore the foundational health that conventional medicine often overlooks while your symptoms persist.
Many POTS patients experience hypovolemia (low blood volume). While oral fluid intake is crucial, some patients benefit significantly from periodic IV fluid therapy, especially during challenging periods or weather changes. IV fluids often provide immediate relief from orthostatic symptoms, enhances energy levels and cognitive function. Your response to IV fluids also offers valuable diagnostic insights about your specific dysautonomia subtype, helping us refine your comprehensive treatment plan while supporting long-term autonomic regulation and improved quality of life.
Exercise intolerance in dysautonomia isn't deconditioning—it's a measurable autonomic response that requires specialised understanding and intervention. Our exercise physiologists focus specifically on autonomic nervous system regulation through carefully calibrated movement programs that respect your orthostatic limitations while progressively building capacity. Using heart rate variability monitoring and symptom tracking, we develop exercise prescriptions that strengthen rather than destabilise your autonomic function, recognising that traditional exercise advice often worsens dysautonomia.
We offer targeted nutrient testing specifically relevant to ME/CFS, POTS, and Long-COVID recovery, identifying deficiencies in vitamins, minerals, and cofactors essential for immune function, cellular energy production, and neurological recovery. Based on these results, we provide personalised supplementation protocols to support your body's healing process.
Chronic autonomic dysfunction creates specific metabolic demands that oral supplementation often cannot meet—absorption issues, increased cellular requirements, and depleted reserves all conspire against recovery. Our targeted injections and infusions deliver therapeutic levels of B vitamins, vitamin C, and other essential nutrients directly to support mitochondrial function, reduce inflammation, and strengthen your autonomic nervous system's capacity for regulation. Each protocol is designed around your specific presentation, whether addressing MCAS flares, immune dysfunction, or the crushing fatigue that conventional doses cannot touch.
Trauma-induced dysautonomia requires interventions that address the nervous system's protective responses at their foundation. The Safe and Sound Protocol uses specifically filtered music to gently stimulate the neural pathways associated with safety and social connection, helping reset the hypervigilant autonomic responses that trauma can create. This evidence-based intervention supports your nervous system's recognition of safety, allowing the parasympathetic recovery responses that trauma often interrupts.
Your vagus nerve serves as the primary pathway for parasympathetic regulation—when dysautonomia disrupts this communication, targeted stimulation can help restore balance. Our tVNS protocols use precise, gentle electrical stimulation to support vagal tone and autonomic regulation. This evidence-based intervention helps modulate the fight-or-flight responses that often become stuck in dysautonomia, supporting your nervous system's return to more flexible, adaptive functioning without pharmaceutical side effects.
Hormonal fluctuations profoundly impact autonomic stability—oestrogen affects blood vessel function, testosterone influences heart rate variability, and thyroid hormones regulate the metabolic processes that support autonomic function. Our hormone optimisation protocols address the specific endocrine imbalances that contribute to your autonomic dysfunction. Through bioidentical hormone replacement and careful monitoring, we help restore the hormonal foundation that supports stable autonomic function, particularly crucial for those whose dysautonomia worsens with hormonal changes.
Directly targeting the autonomic nervous system, acupuncture has emerged as a potentially powerful tool for individuals with these POTS, dysautonomia and ME/CFS, with clinical studies showing up to 70% reduction in key symptoms across multiple trials. Our experienced practitioners use evidence-based point combinations specifically selected for autonomic dysfunction, targeting the measurable imbalances that contribute to your symptoms. This ancient practice offers a gentle yet effective way to support nervous system regulation, often providing relief when other interventions have reached their limits.
