Biofeedback and Hydrogen Water as Treatments for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

NCT05397626 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 39

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this 10-week pilot study is to explore the potential benefit of two recently developed non-invasive interventions, heart rate variability biofeedback (HRV-BF) and OTC supplement hydrogen water, for the symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Symptom measures and heart monitoring information will be generated by this study. Given the lack of effective treatments in this illness, these two non-invasive home-based treatments may help patients feel and function better.

Conditions

  • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Heart Rhythm Biofeedback

Heart rhythm biofeedback is a non-invasive intervention intended to improve heart rate variability and physical resilience that is often limited in chronic fatigue syndrome

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Hydrogen Water

Hydrogen water, if ingested daily over several weeks, may have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in chronic fatigue syndrome

COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Combined treatment: Heart rhythm biofeedback plus hydrogen water

This treatment is intended to explore the possible additive or synergistic effects of combining heart rhythm biofeedback and hydrogen water.
