An Essential Hypertension Patient Treated with Biofeedback-Assisted Relaxation

A 42 Year-old female hypertension patient who showed no response to antihypertensive drugs has been treated by biofeedback training. It is hard to make conclusion at this point whether the training has specific therapeutic effect or not. But the fact that blood pressure could be maintained almost the same level as that of anti hypertensive medication state is an encouraging finding. It is suggested that further continuous training is necessary to evaluate the final results.
