  • Rest and pacing activities

  • Balanced and healthy diet

  • Regular exercise, such as yoga and walking

Sujok Therapy

Sujok Therapy and Yoga Therapy have shown positive results when it comes to improving the symptoms of CFS.

For Sujok Therapy, massage gently on the highlighted points (see figure) and apply sticker moxa.

As this is a complex condition, improvement can take a few sessions and it is recommended that you connect with a healthcare professional.
