hypertension Archives - Hypnotension™

Researchers from Karolinska University in Sweden have been conducting a multi-year study into the effects of noise on health.

Their findings support a major review of research published in the Lancet last October, which showed that exposure to noise can not only disturb sleep, concentration and academic performance, but can also increase the risk of hypertension and cardiovascular disease.

The Karolinska research, which followed over 5,000 people for a ten year period in Stockholm, found an increased risk of hypertension among subjects heavily exposed to road traffic noise at home. The risk was dramatically increased for those heavily exposed to air craft noise.

Their data also suggested a strong connection between exposure to road traffic noise and heart attack (myocardial infarction), as well as a correlation between noise and obesity.

So what is Hypnotension? Well the first thing to say is that if you have been given a diagnosis of high blood pressure by a medical professional you need to take it seriously. High blood pressure (hypertension) is a serious condition which, if untreated, could significantly reduce your life expectancy.

The Hypnotension programme is not a magic pill; your Certified Hypnotension Practitioner is not going to just wave a magic wand and return your blood pressure back to normal levels. So all the advice from your medical professional will have to be followed, boring as that may seem. You may need to lose weight, cut down on the alcohol, reduce salt and exercise more.

Now any competent hypnotherapist can make achieving those things much easier, however the Hypnotension programme goes a lot further than that.
