WHO WE SERVE · LONG-HAUL COVID
Long-Haul COVID Support
Clarity explores MST (Multi-Sensory Training) as a complementary approach for persistent post-COVID symptoms — alongside, not in place of, your existing medical care.
Common challenges with long-haul COVID
- Brain fog, memory, and concentration difficulty
- Persistent fatigue
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
- Sleep disturbances
- Sensory sensitivity (light, sound)
- Difficulty with balance or coordination
How MST is being explored for long-haul COVID
MST simultaneously engages colored light, vestibular (motion) stimulation, auditory stimulation, and somatosensory input, processed together at the brainstem and subcortical level. These lower-brain circuits are closely tied to the autonomic nervous system, and some long-haul COVID symptoms — fatigue, dizziness, brain fog — overlap with the multisensory and nervous-system regulation challenges MST is explored for in other populations, such as post-concussion recovery.
The typical program is a 12-day in-office intensive (two 30-minute sessions per day), followed by an 18-day at-home continuation. Most people notice early changes before the program is complete, though the full effect is typically not apparent until around 90 days.
What research says
What We Know
MST was developed by Dr. Steven J. Curtis, OD, and is listed by EyeLux (the equipment developer) among the populations who may explore MST, alongside post-concussion syndrome, ADHD, and other nervous-system-related concerns.
What We Don't Know
Dr. Curtis's main published outcomes research (Curtis SJ, Vision Development & Rehabilitation, 2019;5(4):235–248) was published before COVID-19 existed, so it does not — and could not — include long-haul COVID patients. There is currently no independent, published research specifically evaluating MST for long-haul COVID. Its inclusion as a population MST may help is based on symptom and mechanism overlap with other studied populations (such as post-concussion recovery), not condition-specific data.
Questions to Ask
What specific evidence exists for this application versus general mechanism reasoning? How will progress be tracked against a starting baseline? How does this fit alongside your current physician or long-COVID care team?
Current conventional approaches
Long-haul COVID care commonly involves a primary care physician or a dedicated post-COVID clinic, and may include physical therapy, occupational therapy, and symptom-specific specialists (cardiology, neurology, etc.). Clarity's MST program is intended to complement this kind of care, not replace it.
