Effectiveness and Safety of a Tele-Rehabilitation Program on Fatigue and Related Variables in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Post COVID Syndrome

This is a randomized, single-blind clinical trial that aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a tele-rehabilitation program based on mindful and conscious movement-based exercise (including adapted yoga, breathing exercises, and body awareness) compared to conventional exercise (low-intensity strength and aerobic training) and usual medical care (control group) over twelve weeks. The study is for people diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ Myalgic Encephalitis (CFS/ME) or Post-Covid Syndrome (PCS). We will also look at how the program affects the autonomic nervous system by measuring heart rate variability (HRV). All sessions will be delivered remotely via Telehealth, so participants can take part from home. Assessments will be completed online at the beginning of the study, after three months (at the end of the intervention), and again three months later.
