Background: Post-Covid condition can reduce activity and quality of life, resulting in a significant socioeconomic health burden. Understanding its impact on patients' is important for the development personalized rehabilitation interventions. An independent association between obesity post-covid was found because complications comorbidities. Methods: Sixteen patients with post-COVID symptoms (i.e., dyspnea, pain, poor sleep quality, muscle fatigue) admitted to Istituto Auxologico Italiano, Piancavallo (VB), Italy, were recruited four-week program including conventional exercise therapy, nutritional intervention, psychological support whole-body cryostimulation (WBC). Results: All participants attended all sessions program. Anthropometric data showed statistically changes weight, waist circumference body mass index. Biochemical analyses reductions lipid inflammatory profiles. There improvement physical performance, reduction pain well-being. Conclusion: A multidisciplinary protocol WBC designed safe feasible. The overall improvements demonstrate that effective post COVID suggest use could play role as booster programs.
