A Holistic Approach to Hypertension

Understanding Hypertension: A Multifactorial Condition

Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, is a prevalent health concern affecting a significant portion of the population. It is characterised by a sustained rise in resting blood pressure, with approximately one-third of individuals experiencing its impact. Several factors contribute to the development of this multifactorial condition, including stress, lifestyle choices, dietary habits, and genetic predispositions.

The Inflammatory Link: Unraveling the Web of Health Conditions

The body's continuous exposure to oxidants, whether from the environment or generated internally as waste products, initiates a complex response. This response involves the production of antioxidants and the development of inflammation. Mental stress, in particular, contributes to the release of substances that elevate inflammation, eventually leading to chronic inflammatory states. This inflammatory response is closely linked to various health conditions such as metabolic syndrome, non-alcoholic fatty liver, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, cancer, Alzheimer's, and heart disease.

The Holistic Approach: Recognising Cause and Effect

The Holistic approach acknowledges the cause-and-effect connection in addressing hypertension. The primary focus lies in implementing dietary and lifestyle measures to treat and manage this condition. By identifying and eliminating factors contributing to inflammation, my practice aims to restore balance and promote overall well-being.

Ozone Therapy: Enhancing the Holistic Approach

Ozone therapy is a valuable addition to the holistic approach to combating hypertension. This innovative therapy offers a range of benefits:

• Decreased Inflammation: Ozone therapy actively works to reduce inflammation, a key contributor to hypertension and associated health issues.
• Improved Oxygenation: By enhancing the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood, ozone therapy contributes to improved cellular function, promoting overall cardiovascular health.
• Enhanced Blood Properties: Ozone therapy positively influences the rheological properties of the blood, optimizing its flow and reducing stress on the cardiovascular system.
• Microcirculation Improvement: Ozone therapy supports enhanced microcirculation, ensuring vital organs receive an adequate supply of oxygen and nutrients.
• Arterial Elasticity: The therapy positively impacts arterial wall elasticity, benefiting endothelial cells and fostering a healthier vascular system.
• Boosted Antioxidant Capacity: Ozone therapy increases the body's endogenous antioxidant capacity, with a focus on supporting the vital role of Glutathione as a master antioxidant for cell growth and repair.

Arterial Health and Beyond: Addressing Chronic Inflammation

Arteries, crucial in carrying oxygen-rich blood throughout the body, are particularly susceptible to the damaging effects of chronic inflammation. Hypertension is a result of this chronic inflammatory process, leading to kidney and blood vessel wall damage, loss of elasticity, and an increased risk of severe cardiovascular events.
