Biofeedback is an alternative treatment technique that involves measuring bodily functions such as blood pressure, heart rate, skin temperature, sweat gland activity, and muscle tension. By conveying this information to a person in real-time, it is often possible for a person to gain some conscious control over such bodily functions. Physical therapists use biofeedback to help stroke patients regain movement in paralyzed muscles. Psychotherapists use it to help tense clients to relax, and pain specialists use it to help their patients cope with pain.
Blood Pressure Recommendation: If you have any difficulties with high blood pressure, biofeedback certainly seems like a great alternative to prescription drugs as a treatment. Perhaps you might be able to get your doctor's approval for a trial to see if biofeedback works for your high blood pressure. (Also, do not overlook therapy as a means of getting rid of some of the internal stress that drives much hypertension.)

| Excerpt from the book Finding Your Soul in the Spirituality Maze: "1. Blood Pressure. Optimal blood pressure is less than 120/80 mmHg. For those following primal therapy paths, blood pressure is much less than the population normal. I measured a few primal friends and found them to be on average about 15 mmHg lower than the population average and over half of them were in the optimum range, even though their age averaged 51 years. My own waking blood pressure averages 108/60, which is far less than the 140/85 one would expect for a 67-year-old.
Genuine gurus from India are also reported to have much lower than average blood pressure. Some rural tribes in Africa that have remained outside of the influences of modernization not only have low readings, but these readings do not rise dramatically with age as they do in the citified world. Caution: Consult with your doctor about the meaning of your blood pressure measurements." Continued here - free read. |
