Hypertension:

High blood pressure simply means the arterial blood flow is restricted because of increased rigidity of the artery walls. The heart must then work harder to pump blood through these narrowing arteries. Over time, this can lead to stroke, heart attack, kidney or heart failure and circulatory compromise. Unfortunately, hypertension does not tend to cause any symptoms until after the damage is done. This condition now affects more than 20% of the population, and this is expected to rise dramatically when the large numbers of obese children reach adulthood.

Health Mate: Using the sauna on a regular basis relaxes vessel walls (dilation) and improves vascular blood flow thus lowering high blood pressure. Additional benefits include greater oxygenation of cells and improved cardiac function. This can prevent the long term harmful effects of hypertension. The Health Mate also provides excellent passive exercise which eases the burden on the heart of pumping blood throughout the body.
