Lifestyle Management
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a common condition where blood puts too much pressure on artery walls, raising the risk of heart disease. Blood pressure depends on how much blood the heart pumps and the resistance in arteries. When the heart pumps more blood into narrow arteries, it leads to high blood pressure. Unfortunately, there are usually no symptoms, but it can harm blood vessels and increase the risk of serious issues like heart attacks or strokes.
How can Physiotherapy treat Hypertension?
Physiotherapy can be a valuable component in managing hypertension. While it may not replace medications or other lifestyle modifications, physiotherapy can complement existing treatments.
Exercises
Physiotherapists design personalized exercise programs to promote cardiovascular health. Aerobic exercises, such as brisk walking, swimming, or cycling, can help lower blood pressure over time.
Stress Management
Mindfulness, breathing exercises, and progressive muscle relaxation can contribute to stress reduction.
Weight Management
Maintaining a healthy weight is crucial for controlling blood pressure.
Cardiovascular Rehabilitation
Gradual, monitored exercises help improve heart function and overall cardiovascular health.
Lifestyle Counseling
Adopting a heart-healthy lifestyle can positively impact blood pressure levels.
