Description

Hypertension is a  serious condition that can lead to coronary artery disease, stroke, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, peripheral vascular disease, vision loss, chronic kidney disease, and dementia. Clinical physicians try to control blood pressure with prescription medication and lifestyle changes (diet & exercises).

Modern research shows that clinical physicians are years behind cutting edge medical research. When you visit a physicians, you think that you are getting medical advice based on the most recent knowledge & data. Unfortunately, this is not true! [See reference 1 below] . Physicians simply do not have time to keep up to date with current science.

There are two types of research:

- Pharmacological research: investigates effects of medications

- Non-pharmacological research: investigates the effect of non-pharmaceutical interventions

Pharma companies invest millions of dollars into marketing novel pharmaceuticals to the clinicians.

Within the past 15 years, science has seen a tremendous level of non-pharmacological research that can benefit patients. Unfortunately, scientists do not have millions of dollars to market their discoveries to the clinicians.

As a result your treatment is heavily biased towards medications that bring tremendously negative side effects.

At SOMA SYSTEM CLINIC we use cutting edge scientific research to create treatment programs relying on non-pharmacological methods.

In this course, "How to Lower Blood Pressure and Overcome Hypertension", you will learn how to control and lower your blood pressure without using medications.

Standard clinical protocols for hypertension treatment include lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise. We go beyond diet and exercise!

Modern research unequivocally demonstrates that hyper activation of your sympathetic nervous system plays a paramount role in genesis and maintenance of high blood pressure. [2-4].

Instead of developing methods to down-regulate sympathetic nervous system, pharma companies develop drugs that aim to prevent effect of the hyper-activated nervous system on the your blood pressure, heart and the cardiovascular system.

What if we could depress activity of the sympathetic nervous system?

In fact, modern research shows that we can do this without using drugs. This requires learning, understanding and changing all factors that over activate sympathetic nervous system, such as:

- Poor quality sleep and insufficient sleep

- Abdominal fat, poor nutrition & insulin resistance

- Muscle Pain & Tension

- Loneliness and lack of authentic and warm relationships

- Lack of purpose in life

- Lack positive emotions

- Depression & Anxiety

- Sedentary physiology

As you can see these factors span all major systems: physiology, psychological and emotional factors, social factors, exercise and many others.

To lower your blood pressure, you need to learn to work with your entire BodyMind and this is exactly what you will learn in this course.
