Abstract

Hypertension is a chronic disease with a high prevalence in Southeast Asia and Indonesia. Yoga as a non- pharmacological therapy has the potential to effectively lower blood pressure. This study used a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design, involving 30 hypertension patients participating in a chronic disease service program at the Grogol Community Health Center. Yoga exercises were carried out for three consecutive days with a duration of 30-60 minutes per session. Data were collected using a general data sheet and a blood pressure monitor. The results of the Wilcoxon test showed a significant decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressure after the yoga intervention (p = 0.000). Yoga exercises play a role in improving heart function, reducing sympathetic nerve activity, and causing vasodilation, resulting in lower blood pressure. This study concluded that yoga exercises are effective as a non-pharmacological intervention that can improve the quality of life of hypertension patients and is recommended for routine implementation in the community.

Abstract

Hypertension is a condition where a person experiences blood pressure that exceeds normal blood pressure. Normal blood pressure in adults is 120/80 mmHg. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the Slow Deep Breathing (SDB) technique on reducing blood pressure in adults with hypertension. The method used in this study was a pre-experimental study design with a total of 30 subjects selected by purposive sampling technique. Blood pressure data was taken before and after SDB intervention for 15 minutes. The results showed that there was a significant effect between SDB and a decrease in blood pressure in the elderly with hypertension (p <0.05). It is hoped that the SDB technique can be used as an alternative non-pharmacological therapy for elderly people with hypertension.
