Herbal remedies or supplements
No herbal remedies or supplements have been proven to effectively relieve the symptoms of heartburn, although many, such as ginger or apple cider vinegar, have been used for centuries. If you are planning on taking any of these, check with your doctor first, as they may interfere with other medicines you are taking, or affect other aspects of your health.

Relaxation techniques
Stress can worsen heartburn, so relieving your stress levels may improve your symptoms. Regardless of the effect on your heartburn, relaxation techniques such as meditation, massage, Tai Chi or yoga can have beneficial effects on your mood and general well-being.
