Heart palpitations are feelings of rapid fluttering or pounding that people experience in their heart, but can be felt in the chest, throat, or neck as well. They can be triggered by stress, exercise, medication, or rarely, a medical condition. Heart palpitations can make you feel like your heart is skipping a beat or is beating too fast. Heart palpitations can happen at any time whether you are being active or at rest.

One successful way of correcting heart palpitations is through integrative cardiac care. Integrative cardiology is the treatment of the physical and mental/emotional aspects of imbalances of the heart. What’s so great about this treatment is that it doesn’t revolve around medications and traditional treatments, but more so focuses on correcting the palpitations with a better diet, lifestyle, and natural therapies that are specifically designed to balance out your entire body. It brings together standard medical diagnosis and alternative medicine treatments to put the heart functions back on track. The key to this treatment is that its purpose is to treat the cause of the palpitations and make sure it won’t continue to occur and not just focus on the effect of it. Integrative cardiology’s main purpose is to find the initial meaning and cause of the heart condition and from there, find the best and most effective route to recovery.

No matter the person and what kind of heart condition they have, integrative cardiac care would be beneficial for them and their health. It is never a bad idea to look at someone as a whole and examine their everyday life habits, beliefs, and routines when trying to choose the best treatment.
