The government in England has confirmed nearly all remaining Covid restrictions will end on 19th July. However, with infection rates rising sharply, it is important to remain vigilant to protect yourself and others.
Supporting Patients and Practitioners
Our main objective is to support practitioners in the best way possible. Throughout the pandemic, we have worked with organisations to offer recommendations on how to operate clinics and dispensaries safely with the introduction of PPE. We also hosted a free webinar to explore how Western medicine and complementary medicine treat Covid – you can view the webinar here. And most importantly, we worked with doctors in China and Europe to supply preventive herbal formulas.
By taking preventative precautions, you are not only reducing the risk of catching the virus but also improving your immune support against future viruses. Herbal remedies can be effective at helping to manage Covid cases to reduce the risk of transmission and reduce potential strain on the NHS.
Chinese medicine has been used widely in China for the virus. Not only has it been found to be successful in boosting immunity to prevent the risk of catching Covid, but also effective in individuals who have been exposed to the virus or are experiencing early symptoms.
Another consequence will be more people struggling with long Covid either because it takes them time to recover after being hospitalised or from persistent symptoms, such as fatigue and brain fog, which for a small minority appear to happen after a milder illness. By taking preventive measures, the risk of contracting Covid and long Covid is significantly reduced.
