I have had good experiences with acupuncture. I have to remind myself that if I feel better afterwards, that I need to go home and rest. The boost sometimes has me doing too much and puts me into PEM/flare up. Same thing for herbs. Don't seek energy boosting herbs, rather just balancing herbs. Ask them to consider less reactive acupuncture points as well. Before you see a new practitioner, ask it they have experience with Long Covid. If not, ask them to research and check in with colleagues. It's worth a try. Good luck.
