Finding Balance: Natural Support for Blood Pressure Hypertension & Hypotension - targeted treatments that combine reflexology and essential oils/aromatherapy

Blood pressure imbalances—whether too high (hypertension) or too low (hypotension)—can significantly impact your quality of life. From persistent headaches and fatigue to dizziness and anxiety, the symptoms can interfere with your daily routine and overall wellbeing.


Speak to a reflexologist about targeted treatments for blood pressure that combine reflexology and essential oils/aromatherapy to support the body’s natural healing systems. Whether you're seeking relief from chronic high blood pressure (hypertension) or managing occasional dips with low blood pressure (hypotension).


🦶 Reflexology for Blood Pressure Support

Reflexology is a holistic therapy that stimulates reflex points on the feet, hands, and face—each corresponding to vital organs and systems in the body. This ancient practice encourages the body to self-regulate, which is especially valuable for those managing blood pressure challenges.


High Blood Pressure (Hypertension)

For clients dealing with hypertension, reflexology may help by:

  • Activating the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation

  • Encouraging better circulation

  • Reducing stress hormone production (like cortisol)

  • Supporting the function of the heart, kidneys, and endocrine system


During your session, reflexology focuses on reflex areas that calm the nervous system and reduce internal tension—key contributors to high blood pressure.


Low Blood Pressure (Hypotension)

For hypotension, reflexology is used to gently stimulate underactive systems, helping to improve energy, circulation, and alertness. It may help:

  • Support adrenal and thyroid function

  • Enhance cerebral blood flow

  • Address symptoms like lightheadedness and fatigue


🌸 Essential Oils in Reflexology/Aromatherapy: Therapeutic Enhancement

Essential oils/aromatherapy amplify the effects of reflexology, interacting with the nervous system and cardiovascular system through aroma (smell) and skin absorption. Each oil is carefully selected to complement your treatment goals.


For Hypertension:

  • Lavender – calming, lowers stress and tension

  • Ylang Ylang – reduces heart rate and promotes emotional balance

  • Marjoram – supports blood vessel health and eases muscular tension


For Hypotension:

  • Peppermint – stimulating and refreshing

  • Rosemary – energizing and circulation-boosting

  • Basil – invigorating and adrenal-supportive


Safety Tips and Considerations

Always consult a qualified essential oils practitioner before starting any new therapy. Especially if you have other medical conditions, as essential oils are contraindicated to medical conditions and mendications.
