First seen Mar 19, 2026 · Last updated Apr 24, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study looks at whether light, self-paced swimming is a safe and tolerable activity for people with ME/CFS and related conditions like Long COVID and POTS. Participants use a phone app to track their symptoms and heart rate variability before and after swimming. The goal is to understand how water immersion affects the body, not to test a treatment or cure.
