Natural Blood Pressure Treatments
Saturday, January 10, 2009
I'm asked all the time if there are better ways to lower high blood pressure than using conventional medications.
I think you need to keep a degree of perspective here - many people do need to take drugs to lower their blood pressure - and would not be safe if they didn't. But there are other approaches you can take.
Natural methods of blood pressure control are now well researched and many of them have been shown to make a big difference to peoples lives. I've known many patients who have been able to reduce the dose of medications they take after using more natural methods - and some have been able to stop their drugs all together.
You should always try these things under the guidance of a doctor of course - and with the help of a blood pressure monitor - but there are real improvements to be had pretty easily for most of us.
As many of you reading this will know - I too have high blood pressure. I used natural treatment methods to reduce my blood pressure by about twenty points and I halved the number of tablets I took each day - and feel a lot, lot better as a result.

The Pressure Point
New blood pressure discussion forum
For years now, I've had people email me to ask questions about high blood pressure or low blood pressure treatment. I do my best to email back but it can be really difficult to find the time to keep up - and - let's face it, I don't know all the answers.
I think I've hit upon the solution and have created a new discussion forum devoted to blood pressure and its treatment. You can ask questions, reply and share your knowledge or just simply spend time browsing around.
Take a look, join in, you'll love it.
