Understanding Heart Failure

Heart failure is a syndrome in which the heart cannot pump or fill well enough to meet the body's needs.

How Crest May Support You

After medical assessment and stabilisation, individualised Homeopathic care may support general wellbeing and quality of life. It does not replace cardiac medicines, investigations or specialist follow-up.

Medical Notice: Homeopathic care at Crest Natural Health Centre complements but does not replace emergency, hospital or specialist treatment. Patients should continue prescribed medicines unless their qualified medical practitioner advises otherwise.

Common Symptoms

Breathlessness

Ankle swelling

Causes & Triggers

Coronary artery disease and previous heart attacks are among the most common causes, as damaged heart muscle pumps less effectively.
Long-standing high blood pressure forces the heart to work harder until it begins to weaken.
Problems with the heart valves, inflammation of the heart muscle (myocarditis), and congenital heart defects can all reduce pumping power.
Other conditions contribute too: diabetes, thyroid disorders, and certain infections can strain the heart over time.

Risks of Delaying Care

Dangerous heart-rhythm disturbances can develop and, at worst, lead to sudden cardiac arrest.
Fluid can collect around the lungs, making breathing increasingly difficult.
Reduced blood flow can damage the kidneys and liver over time.
Ongoing strain can worsen existing valve problems and lead to poor nutrition as appetite falls.
