Description:
Graded Exercise Therapy (GET) is a structured treatment for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS/ME) that aims to gradually increase physical activity in a controlled way. Patients work with a therapist to set a safe baseline of activity, such as short walks or gentle stretching, and then slowly build up over time. The idea is that regular, paced increases in exercise may help reduce fatigue and reverse deconditioning. While some studies have shown moderate improvements with GET, many patients report worsening symptoms, particularly post-exertional malaise, leading to controversy. Because of these concerns, newer guidelines recommend caution, and some no longer advise GET as a standard approach.
