Main Article Content
Abstract
Lifestyle changes are an important issue in treating high blood pressure. Yoga lowers blood pressure by reducing stress, lowering cholesterol and increasing the elasticity of the arteries. We conducted this study to provide a scientific basis for the treatment of hypertension of Yoga. Objectives: (1) Evaluate the effect of Yoga on blood pressure control in patients with grade 1 hypertension and (2) Evaluate the effects of yoga on some anthropometric indexs in patients with grade 1 hypertension. Study subjects: patients with primary grade 1 hypertension according to diagnostic criteria of WHO / ISH 2004, aged 30 to 60 years, currently do not take THA drugs and drugs that affect the study index. Study design: Intervention research. Result: Yoga significantly reduced systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in patients with grade 1 hypertension compared to non-yoga patients. Yoga also significantly reduced the BMI, waist circumference, and subcutaneous fat thickness in patients with grade 1 hypertension compared to non-yoga patients.
