Taking your blood pressure pills, but your numbers are still high? You’re not alone. Here’s the missing piece.
Your medication targets the physical side—your heart and blood vessels. But your brain can keep you in 'stress mode', sending signals that keep your pressure elevated, no matter the dose.
The solution? Team up with your medication by calming your nervous system. This helps your body relax and lets your blood vessels open up naturally.
It's simple to start. Practice slow, deep breathing for just two minutes. Or try gentle movements, like seated leg lifts, to get your blood flowing and release tension.
Think of it as a team: your medication plus these mind-body habits. By addressing both, you give yourself the best shot at finally getting your numbers into a healthy range.
