If you feel palpitations or notice an irregular heartbeat
Palpitations refer to the sensation of your heart beating faster, stronger, or more irregularly than usual.
While we don’t normally notice our heartbeat, palpitations may feel like pounding, fluttering, or skipping beats and are often accompanied by discomfort.
Temporary palpitations caused by exercise, stress, excitement, caffeine, or alcohol are usually not a cause for concern.
However, if palpitations occur frequently, last for a prolonged period, or happen at rest without any clear reason, they may indicate an underlying issue with the heart or other body systems.
At Sakura Clinic, we begin with a thorough consultation to identify possible causes and provide personalized testing and treatment plans tailored to each individual.
