An Exploratory Randomised Trial to Assess the Effect of Nadi Shodhan Pranayama as an Adjunct Versus Standard Non-pharmacological Management in Hypertensives
The practice of nadi shodhan pranayama, preceded by two minutes of yogic deep abdominal breathing, reduced the systolic and diastolic BP and improved HRV-related autonomic parameters, in patients of hypertension on pharmacological therapy, immediately after 10 minutes of practice and after 10 minutes of daily practice for six weeks.
