Etiology

Some authors have noted that angina is sometimes associated with hypothyroid conditions, and in those cases responds well to treatment of the underlying hypothyroid condition [Barnes1972], [Starr2005, pg 136][Gaby2011, pg 239].

Treatment

Conventional Treatments

Vasodilators such as nitroglycerine are used to provide symptomatic relief.

Naturopathic, Complementary, and Alternative Treatments

Neurotransmitter Balancing

Neuro Research [Hinz2015] reports that chronic diseases such as angina can be benefited by balancing neurotransmitter levels in the body.

Dr. Weyrich has been trained in neurotransmitter balancing protocols, but has not treated angina using this technique.

Please see What is Neurotransmitter Balancing? for more information.
