Reflexology

[rocheen]

Anyone tried this. Wondered if it would work for high blood pressure

[fenbadger]

Yes, but unsure. It's extremely relaxing and that surely would help lower blood pressure. If you have a home monitor, try taking BP before and after a session

[rocheen in reply to fenbadger]

Thanks. will try it. Have you had it done.

[fenbadger in reply to rocheen]

yes, it's lovely

[Penel]

Perhaps try meditation?

It will definitely lower blood pressure, but it needs to be done consistently together with a healthy lifestyle. It does give a great feeling of well being so for sure it'll lower your BP. This isn't directly related, but after 8 years of trying to get pregnant, my wife conceived soon after we started having weekly foot reflexology sessions. For me, I'm convinced that reflexology had a positive effect on our total and overall health.

Hi Rocheen

high blood pressure can be linked with stress, so if reflexology helps with that it may help lower your blood pressure.

Things like yoga/meditation would help too.
