Hypotonic conditions are a scourge of modern society in which a lot of daily tests fall on a person’s lot, from chronic lack of sleep, unhealthy ecology and harmful work, and ending with poor stress resistance. Elderly people are more susceptible to the disease, since with age the heart muscle weakens and requires more time and effort to run blood in circles, and the vessels wear out, become thinner and lose their tone.
As a result of the disease, many people have healthy questions, for example, is it possible to do without chemical methods in therapy, and if the tablets help, then which ones are better.
Today we will consider the TOP 10 effective methods that alone or in combination with each other give good results in the treatment of hypotension.
10. Cinnamon infusion
Fragrant oriental spice can be the fastest remedy that will greatly alleviate the condition under reduced pressure. For surgical treatment, it is enough to steal half a teaspoon of dry spices in a glass of boiling water, adding a tablespoon of honey for sweetness. Allow the product to brew well and cool to room temperature, then take it at the first sign of hypotension (weakness, dizziness, pallor of the skin, etc.). Also, cinnamon can be added to tea or coffee to enhance the effect, prepare an alcoholic infusion based on it.
9. Alcohol tinctures of herbs
Herbal preparations have long been used in folk medicine to increase pressure. And here it is important to understand medicinal plants, since many of them, on the contrary, have a hypertensive effect and can worsen the condition. To make you feel better, we recommend combining 25 drops of tincture of lemongrass herb with water and drink it before eating. Schisandra tones blood vessels, stimulates the central nervous system and improves heart function. Alcoholic extract of Eleutherococcus relieves fatigue, stimulates brain and physical activity. Ginseng tincture strengthens the blood vessels, allows you to recover faster after neurosis, depression and insomnia, improving performance.
8. A cup of sweet strong coffee
One of the favorite methods of hypotension is treatment with a coffee drink. Caffeine has a stimulating effect on the nervous system, stimulates blood circulation and gently dilates blood vessels, improving blood flow and relieving stress from the heart. Of course, for the best effect of coffee, you need to drink periodically so that the body does not have time to get used to it. For treatment, use only real grain or ground coffee, but do not expect any sense from the “3 in 1” option or other instant ones. By the way, do not forget to properly sweeten the drink, because glucose stabilizes the pressure well. About 500 ml of moderate strength coffee is enough to treat hypotension per day.
7. Contrast shower, breathing exercises and yoga breathing exercises
A healthy lifestyle and physical activity are a panacea for many ills. Exercise and yoga improve blood circulation, strengthen blood vessels, train the heart muscle. This is especially facilitated by the correct breathing technique, which can be learned from Eastern teachers. Many asanas are designed specifically to strengthen the cardiovascular system and stabilize the pressure in the arteries. A day is enough to devote at least 15 minutes to gymnastics. Add after contrast a douche, which perfectly strengthens the immune system and allows better blood flow to tissues and cells.
6. Cold sweet drinks, juices or lemonade
It is undesirable for children, adolescents and pregnant women to use coffee drinks and alcohol solutions in the treatment of hypotension, which can also have side effects. Naturally freshly squeezed fresh juices, berry and fruit drinks, nectars with pulp, compotes, as well as homemade lemonade will help to gently increase pressure. Especially connoisseurs of folk methods praise cranberry and pomegranate juice, as well as grape and birch juice. Do not forget to add sugar or honey to the drink, which will also have a beneficial effect on low blood pressure.
5. Acupressure of some areas
Combining healthy drinks and other products is also necessary with manual exposure to the body. For example, it is known that on the body there are some points that are responsible for the work of the cardiovascular system. You can slide your fingers down the carotid artery, as if smoothing it. Press the pads of your fingers a little on the center of the nape. Massage the point with the thumbs at the base of the head, rub the whiskey. A very pleasant and effective method for improving blood circulation and combating hypotension is a shoulder and arm massage.
4. Cognac or tea with cognac
Fans of alcohol, of course, can isolate this advice from the context in order to justify their addiction. However, we recommend that you do not add alcohol without strict need to your diet. There are other more effective methods to increase blood pressure without side effects and harm to the liver. Nevertheless, some doctors believe that 50 ml of an organic drink daily will expand the vessels and improve blood distillation. At the same time, they advise drinking cognac, both in pure form, and adding to tea, coffee, etc.
3. A pinch of salt on the tongue
It turns out that many spices and spices in our buffet can come in handy for hypotension. Nobody canceled glucose and sugar in the fight against the disease, but simple rock salt also produces a good effect. For a therapeutic effect, it is enough to simply have a snack with something salty (snacks, lard, marinades or canned food, dried fish, sausage, etc. But this option at the same time clutters your gastrointestinal tract with unnecessary chemical compounds, so you can go the simpler way - put half a teaspoon of salt with the base of the tongue and let it dissolve on its own.
2. Walking in the fresh air and physical activity
Above we have given advice on gymnastics and yoga to increase pressure. However, joints and physical flexibility are far from always possible to perform high-quality exercises. For such people, a way out is also invented - more often walk on foot in the fresh air, actively working with the musculoskeletal system. You can also go for a light run a couple of times a week, which trains the cardiovascular system, starts the brain, and allows you to get rid of feelings of chronic fatigue and dizziness. For efficiency, run for 20 minutes a day. Busy or weak people can go on a regular walk every day for 30-40 minutes, which will also allow you to slightly increase the pressure.
1. Medicines that increase blood pressure
If the methods of psychosomatics, massage, physical activity and folk recipes turned out to be ineffective in their sum, then it is time to move on to “heavy artillery”, namely to effective drugs to increase pressure. In your arsenal should be analgesics and antispasmodics to stop dizziness, pain, vasospasm of the brain or heart. Additionally, have Aspirin to thin the blood and reduce blood pressure, as well as the well-known drugs Gutron, Strofatin, Papazol, Citramon, Mesatone and camphor. Medicines should not be taken without a doctor's prescription!
Hypotension responds well to treatment, including traditional medicine and other home remedies. Why spend time and energy on going to the hospital when you can try safe and affordable methods that have been preserved from our ancestors.
