Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) is an ailment that places a great strain on sufferers and their support groups (family, friends, colleagues, etc.) due to the associated physical, social, emotional and lifestyle issues.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) has no single cause and as such has no known ‘cure’. What is known is that the major physical and emotional effects can be treated.

The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Recovery Program (CFSRP) is returning participants to a more normal state of health and lifestyle using physical reconditioning and emotional support. It is a holistic approach (no drugs) to rehabilitation that is supported by a team of professionals.

The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Recovery Program (CFSRP) is based on an adolescent Chronic Fatigue Syndrome program (CFS) run by leading Melbourne paediatrician Dr Lionel Lubitz that has achieved outstanding results over the last decade. The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Recovery Program (CFSRP) caters for all age groups.

Mary and Matthew Hoch founded the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Recovery Program (CFSRP). Matthew had waged a six-year battle with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) that involved exploring treatments, both mainstream and alternative, resulting in frustration and often exacerbating symptoms. In 2005 Matthew successfully responded to the adolescent Chronic Fatigue Syndrome program run by Dr Lionel Lubitz. Seeing this, Mary and Matthew were inspired to deliver a program that would help and offer hope to as many Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) sufferers as possible.

The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Recovery Program (CFSRP) is being conducted in a caring and nurturing environment in Melbourne’s Eastern Suburbs. Support continues after the program in order to maintain and build on the recovery process.

Participants require a referral from their medical practitioner to be accepted to complete the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Recovery Program (CFSRP) .
