How We Go For it

We at Yoga Therapy Foundation follow specific procedures for treatment of high blood pressure patients with yoga therapy –

Usually we start with exact need assessment of the patient carrying out a stress test.
Find out whether the patient has cardiovascular problems like diabetes, atherosclerosis, high cholesterol, or inflammatory markers such as existence of C-reactive protein or homocysteine
If you test positive with any of the above conditions we would avoid the postures where legs stay at higher levels than heart and heart at higher levels than head.
Avoid Sarvangasana or shoulder stand and Shirshasana or head stand postures.

Yoga Postures we use to treat High Blood Pressure

Asanas that do not invert the body
Calming and restorative asanas.
