Angina (Chest Pain)

Understanding the Signal and Choosing the Right Path Forward

Chest pain (angina) can be alarming. Sometimes it is brief or vague. Other times it is persistent or recurring. While not all chest pain is dangerous, it should always be taken seriously.

At CoCardio™, we help individuals understand why chest pain may be happening, identify whether the heart is involved, and guide prevention-first next steps. Our role is educational, supportive, and complementary to standard medical care.

First, an Important Safety Note

If you are experiencing sudden, severe, or worsening chest pain, especially with shortness of breath, fainting, nausea, or pain spreading to the arm or jaw, seek emergency medical care immediately.

CoCardio™ does not provide emergency services.

If your chest pain is ongoing, recurring, or unexplained, and urgent causes have already been ruled out, CoCardio™ can help with deeper evaluation and long-term prevention.

What Chest Pain Can Mean

Chest pain can come from several sources, including the heart.

Heart-related chest pain may be caused by:

Non-cardiac causes may include digestive, muscular, or stress-related factors. Because symptoms can overlap, thoughtful evaluation matters.

Understanding Angina

Angina is a common cause of chest discomfort and occurs when the heart muscle does not receive enough blood flow, especially during physical activity or stress.

Angina may feel like:

While angina is not a heart attack, it is an important warning sign that circulation to the heart may be compromised and should be addressed early.

How CoCardio™ Helps With Chest Pain and Angina

Once emergency conditions are ruled out, CoCardio™ focuses on clarity, prevention, and circulation-focused support.

We help individuals:

Heart Function Testing for Chest Pain

Heart Function Testing, also known as an echocardiogram, is a key tool in evaluating chest pain.

This non-invasive ultrasound allows us to:

This test is painless, performed in our clinic, and provides real-time insight into how your heart is working today.

CoCardio Boost™ for Angina Support

For individuals with stable angina, CoCardio Boost™ (ECP) may be an appropriate option.

ECP is a non-invasive, FDA-approved therapy that has been widely used to:

Candidacy for CoCardio Boost™ is determined carefully through consultation and heart function testing to ensure the therapy is appropriate and safe.

A Consultation-Based, Preventive Approach

After testing, we provide a Heart Function Consultation to review results clearly and calmly.

This consultation helps you:

For many individuals, this process provides reassurance, clarity, and a clear plan forward.

Adjunct to Standard Medical Care

CoCardio™ does not replace emergency services, primary care, or cardiology care.

Chest pain consultations, heart function testing, and CoCardio Boost™ are educational and supportive services and do not establish a doctor-patient relationship. Many individuals share results with their cardiologist as part of a coordinated care approach.

Begin With Understanding

Chest pain is your body’s signal that something deserves attention.

At CoCardio™, we help you understand that signal, assess circulation and heart function, and guide prevention-first next steps with clarity and care.
