High blood pressure and low blood pressure are hypertension and hypotension, respectively.
Hypertension is something that affects millions of people all over the world. High blood pressure is when the pressure exerted by the blood flow is too strong and can cause damage to the walls of the blood vessels. Headaches, nosebleeds, and shortness of breath are common symptoms of high blood pressure. Possible complications from high blood pressure include memory problems, heart failure, heart attack, stroke, and aneurysms. High blood pressure is usually treated with medications, including diuretics and beta-blockers. People with high blood pressure are advised to avoid as much stress as they can.
Low blood pressure may not cause as many problems, and abnormally low blood pressure is known as hypotension. Low blood pressure may be caused by dehydration or underlying medical conditions. While it may not be serious in most cases, it can be life-threatening in some, even causing the body to go into shock.
How It Workes...
Reiki is known to reduce levels of stress, anxiety, and bring about a sense of calmness. These three factors can lower blood pressure. Poor sleep habits are also known to raise blood pressure. Since Reiki can improve the quality of sleep, it can indirectly lower blood pressure. People who experience pain may tend to get stressed, which can raise blood pressure. Reiki can reduce sensations of pain.
