Frequently Asked Questions
常见问题
When should I seek medical help for a racing heart? 心跳加速时，什么情况下应该寻求医疗帮助？
See a doctor if palpitations are accompanied by chest pain, dizziness, fainting, or shortness of breath, or if they last more than 30 minutes without a clear anxiety trigger.
如果心悸伴有胸痛、头晕、晕厥或呼吸困难，或在没有明显焦虑诱因的情况下持续超过30分钟，请就医。
Can box breathing stop palpitations immediately? 方块呼吸能立即止住心悸吗？
It can reduce anxiety-driven palpitations within 3–5 minutes by activating the parasympathetic nervous system. It is not suitable for cardiac arrhythmias.
它可以通过激活副交感神经系统在3至5分钟内减少焦虑引起的心悸。但不适用于心律失常。
How often can I use this technique? 我可以多频繁地使用此技巧？
As often as needed during acute episodes. For prevention, practice once or twice daily for 5–10 minutes to strengthen vagal tone over time.
在急性发作期间可按需使用。预防方面，每天练习一到两次，每次5至10分钟，以随时间增强迷走神经张力。
