Lowering The Blood Pressure With The Help Of Acupuncture

Lowering The Blood Pressure With The Help Of Acupuncture
By Grojan Fabiola

Doctors and scientists from the Irvine university of California
have recently discovered a new method of lowering blood
pressure. This method is based on electroacupuncture, which
seems to have a significant effect in lowering blood pressure.
The method has been tested on rats, by inducing low electric
stimulation at the front of their legs, and their blood's
pressure after the treatment was 40 percent lower than
before(their blood pressure had been artificially increased
before). This opens new doors for hypertension treatment, maybe
it will even replace the traditional medical treatments with
this ancient method.

These are all the methods that were tested :

Needles were inserted into:

- pericardium 5-6, and they were rotated every 10 to thirty
minutes. While this procedure was performed, the rats' blood
pressure was being raised by doctors.

- the rats' forelimbs, without any stimulation or twist, for 30
minutes.

Also, the pericardium 5-6 was electrically stimulated with
frequencies ranging from 2 to 100 hertz.

During these tests the changes in blood pressure were
continuously monitored, and the results carefully recorded. The
most successful in lowering blood pressure were those tests
which involved manual and electrical acupuncture, which had
serious effects in lowering blood pressure, lasting up to one
hour, and ranging from

33 to 36 percent. The best results were
recorded at the rats which had been stimulated by
electroacupuncture, especially at those treated at the
electroacupuncture frequency of 2 hertz.

However, the best results were recorded at the rats stimulated
at the heart (6-7) and stomach (36-37). Their blood pressure was
lowered up to 44 percent for the heart stimulation, and 36
percent for the stomach.

An important observation that doctors made was that this
electroacupuncture treatment can only lower blood pressure for
the hypertensive people, it has no effect for healthy people.

We can only that these treatments involving will
soon be available to everyone, because they represent a very
good way to lower blood pressure
