what do you do for your high blood pressure?

I'm sure a few of you have had to deal with this. Have you found anything that worked well for you aside from the normal exercise, meditation and dietary change?

I have helped a few people with heart problems and got good results from energy healing treatments. Can discuss more here if you like.

Send me a PM if you want my teacher's contact info.

all what I know is, that high blood pressure - is among the easiest condition to heal by TCM.
I do, and advise you to do what you mentioned above with pressure on diet . Go to see herbalist.
Do however full body MD screening.

I stop reading certain threads on RSF. Works for me.

diet is #1- lay off greasy, oily, cooked under direct fire, melted cheese, etc. lay off the sugars as well. eat more steamed veggies, soups and stews, regulate your meat intake. try not to combine eggs and meat together for example if you want breakfast eat either a 'meat and toast' or a 'egg and toast' but not 'egg-meat-toast' and def dont add cheese especially that 'American cheese' chemical crap. drink tea after eating oily foods.

I don't have a blood pressure problem, but
I take fish oil/Omega 3 fatty acids. I was also told by a TCM Dr. that Oolong tea helps to lower high blood pressure.

Yes, it certainly helps to find the cause of the hbp in the first place.

neja is right diet is key here,
but
right one :)
NEVER eat bread and meat at once,
better trash toasts all together / if we`re speakin` about US quality toast bread - don`t even think about it/

Wow, Peacedog, that's quite an effect. Good that you could pinpoint the cause and that you can avoid those foods.

Consider your relationship to frustration. Diet can affect your BP to be sure, yet it is usually your own mind that underlies the problem. It is the things we think that keep the threshold of the stress response low. I would rather say diet is a factor and attitude is the key.

How do you react to the pressures in your life? Do you worry? How is your temper? Do you curse, openly or under your breath? Do you swallow the things you would like to say, do you know why you want to say them? Do you feel the need to "fix" the world around you? Do you have people in your life that are intolerable? These kinds of question are what I would ask before getting to diet.
