Causes of Brain Fog

There are various causes of brain fog, including sleep deprivation, chronic stress, depression, overeating, diet, and inactivity. Brain fog is often traced to traumatic illness, including COVID-19, prolonged flu symptoms, and hospitalization due to injury or surgery.

Brain fog can occur from severe psychological trauma in childhood or later in life by loss or life-threatening events.

Additionally, clients report experiencing noticeable results after the initial treatment, often immediately after the first treatment. The clinician closely monitors steady improvement over the course of therapy.

While conditions like brain fog improve with LENS treatment, positive side effects such as greater productivity, deeper sleep, and positive moods throughout the day often manifest.

Treatment results for most people include improved mental clarity, which makes them feel more energetic, enhanced memory, self-confidence, and productivity at work or school.

Long-term symptoms and complications

In a significant new National Institute of Health (NIH) initiative to identify the causes and ultimately the means of prevention and treatment for individuals who don’t recover fully over a few weeks. These people are called “Long Haulers.” A large number of patients who have been infected with COVID-19 continue to experience a constellation of symptoms long past the time that they’ve recovered from the initial stages of the illness. Often referred to as “Long-term symptoms” or Long Haulers, it can include fatigue, shortness of breath, “brain fog,” sleep disorders, fevers, gastrointestinal “brain fog” symptoms, anxiety, and depression. It can persist for months and can range from mild to incapacitating. In some cases, new symptoms arise or evolve well after infection disappears.
