Atrial Fibrillation — Classical Chinese Medicine Support Alongside Cardiology Care
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia, with substantial stroke risk requiring anticoagulation in most patients, and complex rate and rhythm management decisions. It requires cardiology care. At Nature’s Chinese Medicine & Acupuncture Clinic in Belmont (Perth) and Geraldton, Dr. Yang provides supportive treatment for AF patients — addressing symptoms, autonomic patterns, and constitutional factors alongside specialist management.
Common Symptom Pattern
- ✓ Paroxysmal AF with identifiable triggers (Pattern 1)
- ✓ Chronic AF with rate/symptom needs (Pattern 2)
- ✓ Post-ablation or cardioversion (Pattern 3)
