About us

Why Sharpa exists

The demands of serious Long Covid care are high — and today met in hardly any one place. Sharpa builds the care pathway that doesn't yet exist: mechanism-based, at home where possible, at the patient's own pace, with one dedicated contact. We don't provide therapy ourselves; the medical decision lies with the physician. We carry the load on the way.

Patient & caregiver council

We want to understand the problems.

Anyone building a care pathway for Long Covid and ME/CFS must first listen. No one knows the gaps in the system better than the people who live with them every day — and the family members who support them.

That's why Sharpa works with a circle of patients and caregivers. They check whether our solutions address the right problems, point out our blind spots, and correct us where we think past reality.

We're also interested in concrete feedback at any time: on the problems in Long Covid and ME/CFS care, on our care pathway, on what's missing. Write to us at info@sharpa.health.

Principles

What guides us.

Pacing first

Every step respects your energy limits. No measure may risk worsening your condition. Care adapts to you — not the other way around.

Mechanism-based system diagnostics

Long Covid manifests through several disease mechanisms that influence each other. We identify the leading mechanism — the main driver of your illness — through comprehensive diagnostics and address it as the priority. Understand first, then act.

Evidence transparency

We say what is established and where the limits of knowledge lie. The evidence base is still incomplete — we work with the best available knowledge. No promises of cure.
