Blood pressure issues? Try hot yoga
Researchers have found that taking hot yoga classes lowered the blood pressure of adults with elevated for stage 1 hypertension.
While there is evidence of regular, room-temperature yoga's positive effect on blood pressure, little is known about hot yoga's potential impact on blood pressure, said researchers who presented the study recently.
The results of the study start the conversation that hot yoga could be feasible and effective in tems of reducing blood pressure without medication, said the study's author.
Hot yoga is a modern practice, typically offered in a hot, humid atmosphere, with room temperatures around 105 def. F. /around 41 deg. C.
For the study, the researchers recruited 10 men and women, between 20-65 years. Participants had either elevated blood pressure ( systolic BP between 120mmHg- 129 mmHg and diastolic pressure less than 80mmHg) or stage 1 hypertension ( 130mmHg-139mmHg systolic and 80 mmHg-89mmHg diastolic pressure).
The research team randomly assigned 5 participants to take 12 weeks of 3 times-weekly hour long hot yoga classes and they assigned the other 5 to a control group of no yoga classes.
They compared the average BP pf the 2 groups after 12 weeks.
The researchers looked at average 24-hour BP readings, as well as perceived stress and vascular function of participants in both groups.
They found systolic BP dropped from an average 126mmHg at the study's start to 121 mmHg after 12 weeks of hot yoga.
Average diastolic pressure also decreased from 82mmHg to 79 mmHg in the hot yoga group.
According to the study, average BP did not change among the 5 adults in the control group, those who did not take hot yoga classes.
Perceived stress levels fell among those in the hot yoga group but not in the other group.
