Good Morning!

 

Treating High Blood Pressure with Homeopathy

 

High Blood Pressure(Hypertension): Blood pressure is determined by

the amount of blood your heart pumps and the resistance to blood

flow in the arteries. Resistance to blood flow is affected by the

diameter of the small arteries. In general, the more blood your

heart pumps and the smaller the arteries, the higher your blood

pressure. Your kidneys regulate the volume of water circulating in

your body and the amount of salt your body contains.

 

More salt in your body means that more water is retained in your

circulation and may cause an increase in blood pressure. More salt

in your body also may increase the tendency for blood vessels to

narrow. Less salt means a trend to lower pressure.

 

The main factor in most cases of high blood pressure is an increase

in resistance to blood flow. This can occur if the diameter of your

arterioles becomes smaller. Your heart has to work harder to pump

the same amount of blood, and the pressure at which the blood is

pumped increases.

 

The most critical function is maintenance of circulation to the

brain. When the sympathetic nervous system is activated, it sends

more blood to the brain by constricting peripheral arteries, raising

arterial blood pressure. With hypertension, the nervous system seems

to be reacting to an imaginary threat that never goes away.

 

Sympathetic tone is constantly too high, arteries are constantly

constricted, and blood pressure remains elevated to levels that can

eventually damage the heart and arteries, kidneys, and other organs.

Because the sympathetic nervous system deals with fear and uses

adrenalin and nonadrenalin as its chemical messengers, it is not

surprising that anxiety is a factor in essential hypertension.

 

The bottom number of a blood pressure reading, called the diastolic

pressure, is the measurement during the relaxed phase of the heart's

pumping cycle. It is the more important one in determining health

risks. If it is consistently 100 or above, you must do something to

get it down to 80 or below. The following is the program to decrease

high blood pressure.

 

Treating with Homeopathy

 

Argentum nitricum: If blood pressure rises with anxiety and

nervousness, this remedy may be indicated. " Stage fright " or

anticipation of a stressful event can bring on dizziness, headache,

diarrhea, and a pounding pulse. People who need this remedy are

typically warm-blooded, imaginative, impulsive, claustrophobic, and

have strong cravings for sweets and salt.

 

Aurum metallicum: This remedy is sometimes indicated for serious

people, focused on career and accomplishment, with blood pressure

problems related to stress. Worry, depression, or anger may occur,

especially when these people feel they have made a mistake or failed

in some way. A general tendency to feel worse at night, and a strong

desire for alcohol, sweets, bread, and pastries are other

indications for Aurum.

 

Belladonna: This remedy is indicated when symptoms come on suddenly,

with great intensity and heat. The person's face is flushed, with

dilated pupils, and pulsations and throbbing may be felt in various

parts of the body. Despite the general heat, the person's hands and

feet may be cold. Vertigo and pounding headaches, worse from jarring

and worse from light, may also occur.

 

Calcarea carbonica: This remedy is often helpful to people with high

blood pressure who easily tire and have poor stamina. They are

typically responsible types, who feel overwhelmed when ill and fear

a breakdown. Palpitations and breathing problems can be worse from

walking up a slope or stairs, and also when lying down. A general

chilliness with clammy hands and feet (the feet may heat up in bed

at night) and sweat on the head during sleep are other indications.

The person may have cravings for sweets and eggs, and tend toward

weight problems.

 

Glonoinum: A flushed face with a pounding headache and visible

throbbing in the blood vessels of the neck may indicate a need for

this remedy. The chest can feel congested or hot, with a pounding or

irregular heartbeat. The person is worse from moving around, after

heat and sun exposure, and after drinking alcohol. A feeling

of " being lost in a familiar place " is a strong indication for this

remedy.

 

Lachesis: A person who needs this remedy typically is intense and

talkative, with inner passion and agitation that need an outlet—

a " pressure-cooker. " The person may have a strong fear of disease,

and feelings of suspicion, revenge, or jealousy are common. The

person may also have heart or artery problems, look flushed or

purplish, and feel constriction in the chest, with pulsations in

many areas. Feeling worse after taking a nap or on waking in the

morning, and a strong intolerance of clothing around the neck (or

any kind of restriction) are other indications for Lachesis.
