This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a mind-body program called the Dynamic Neural Retraining System (DNRS) to see if it can help people with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and long COVID. The program teaches techniques to help your brain and body communicate better, with the goal of reducing fatigue, pain, anxiety, and depression. Right now, there is no strong scientific evidence that this treatment works, so this study aims to answer that question carefully.
ME/CFS and long COVID are serious conditions that affect the nervous system, immune system, and how the body uses energy—and current treatment options are limited. Researchers believe that teaching the brain to work differently through mind-body techniques might help reduce symptoms, which is why they want to test this treatment rigorously.

If you join the treatment group, you will begin the mind-body retraining program right away and practice it at home using online materials. If you are in the waiting-list group, you will continue your usual care for 4 months and then receive the program afterward. Throughout the study, you will complete questionnaires about your fatigue, pain, quality of life, anxiety, and depression to help researchers measure whether the treatment is working.
