description Introduction: Several days to months after diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2, 35% of patients have persistent symptoms in high incidence. This is referred to as post-COVID-19 Syndrome. There is a pressing need to find a way to help patients with the manifested symptoms. Objective: To show the different therapies that exist for post-COVID Syndrome and their efficacy. Methodology: A systematic review of the scientific literature was carried out. The data search was carried out in Scopus, PubMed, Cinahl, and Web of Science. Of the 106 articles found, 12 articles were obtained after applying the following eligibility criteria. Results: Interventions related to respiratory musculature and moderate intensity exercise both in supervised face-to-face sessions and in supervised home sessions led patients to a significant improvement in the symptoms presented. Conclusion: Physical therapies significantly reduce fatigue and dyspnea as well as other symptoms related to quality of life.
