A-Fib Symptoms: Patients’ Anecdotal Tips and Alternative Remedies

Published June 7, 2017

Updated article: I’ve added to this article several times over the years. A-Fib.com patients continue to send me first-hand reports of alternative remedies that have given them some relief from their Atrial Fibrillation symptoms. They may work for you too.

Topics include acupuncture, chiropractic adjustment and homeopathic remedies. (For more about natural treatments, see FAQs: Natural Therapies & Holistic Treatments.)

There’s also a long list of anecdotal suggestions. To be clear, these anecdotal tips may provide temporary relief from A-Fib attacks or they may not work at all for your A-Fib. So, try them at your discretion.

I hope one or more of these patient suggestions will give you some relief, too. Go to: Alternative Remedies and Patients Tips for A-Fib Symptoms.
