[Changes in blood pressure in mild forms of hypertension after long-term physical training].
The authors submit the results of a long-term study of the treatment of mild hypertension by physical training. Its advantage, as compared with medicamentous treatment, is the physiological effect on the organism, its financially unpretentious character, and if the population is seriously informed, its wide application. The authors found in general a poor approach to physical activity, in particular among young people due to lack of information on the importance of physical activity. They conclude that physical training is the method of choice in the treatment of mild forms of hypertension. The blood pressure attained normal levels after this treatment in liminal hypertonics as well as hypertonics stage I.
