Breathing Exercises With Aerobic Activity for Early-Stage High Blood Pressure
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether combining special breathing techniques (coherent breathing) with aerobic exercise helps lower blood pressure and improve quality of life in people with stage 1 hypertension. You'll learn these techniques and perform them regularly to see if they work better together than exercise alone.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
