This study is investigating the effects of using an Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy (OMT) treatment protocol that was shown to statistically improve smell in individuals suffering from Long-COVID olfactory (smell) dysfunction in a small single-blinded pilot trial conducted during 2021.
The questions this study is trying to answer are:
1. Does this OMT protocol improve other non-smell related Long-COVID symptoms
2. Do 2 OMT treatments improve Long-COVID symptoms more than 1 OMT treatment
Participants will:
1. Week 1: Take an digital survey regarding their Long-COVID symptoms undergo Long-COVID OMT treatment or a placebo treatment
