Lower Blood Pressure in 5 minutes - Two Proven Methods

I went to the doctor yesterday and got a reading of 182/74. I could feel that my BP was high. I was given meds and told to take my BP at home, morning and night, over the weekend. I’ve been doing so and the BP was reading on average about 152/77 (less nervous at home). I found this video and tried the breathing exercise. First without the breathing 162/82. Then I started the 6 breaths exercise. Within one minute: 129/69, 118/71 and the last one was 113/75. Amazing stuff.

My bp was 179/107 during anxiety attack. By deep breathing it went down to 122/66 in 5 minutes. Anxiety and panic attacks suck.

I get nervous before doctors appointments , I try to do breathing techniques before I go in but when they take it I just start getting nervous again. Anyone else can relate or have any tips?

The fact that we get free videos on YouTube by Adam is truly a gift ... Keeping education and knowledge alive. 👍👍👍

We live in Florida, the traffic is horrendous. Sometimes when I arrive at my doctor’s my blood pressure is high. I told her to take it again when I got ready to leave. I do some deep breathing while she is talking to me andIto her. At leaving, she again takes my blood pressure and its normal. Breathe, people breathe and relax your body. It works every time.

At 72 I decided to find myself a doctor. Wasn't easy. Found a "move in" that was building a practice. She's put me through every test Medicare pays for. First rattle out of the box was scrips for BP meds and statins. I started keeping track of my BP twice a day. I'm consistently below 130 over 60s. I've said no to the meds. I do a healthier diet and a little exercise now. Last time I was in, she said "It's been 6 months. We need to schedule you for another colonoscopy." I hope she didn't take offense when I laughed in her face.

I have done this breathing exercise and it does work. Also, when you go into the doctors office and they use that electric blood pressure cuff; it always raises your blood pressure higher then it really is. Request the nurse get the old cuff and pump it up herself. Get a blood pressure meter for home and check it daily. When I go into the office my blood pressure always reads higher in the office then at home. I had my home devise checked and it is correct. Some blood pressure medicine can also raise your blood pressure.... be aware of this.. Find out what your medicine takes out of the body and talk with your doctor and replace it if possible. Statins block your Coq10 and your heart is full of this to stay healthy. The Coq10 supplement many doctors recommend to patients when taking Statins. The New England Journal of Medicine stated that Patients need to be proactive in there health. We need to research and work with the doctor to make the best decisions for our optimal health. If you find yourself with a professional doctor they will look at your research. If they will not look at your research... you need to fire them and move on. It is very unprofessional for a doctor to not listen to a patient. God bless.

I’ve been keeping my blood pressure low through breathing for close to 40 years. I learned how to do it when I was in my late teens and so I’ve just always done it. Always insist on a stethoscope reading don’t let them use the automated machine on you. They do not get accurate readings and you can end up medication you don’t need. also eat celery celery won’t give you low blood pressure, but it will lower high blood pressure. This works starts slow because if you’re on blood pressure medication and you have too much celery, it can lower it too much.

I just tried the 2nd method, the breathing method, within the space of about 10 minutes it reduced my pulse from 105 back to 82! I will continue to do this throughout the day now, absolutely brilliant, cannot thank you enough! Cheers from Australia

From the UK: Had a Doctor's appointment Monday. Had cycled 5-miles to get to the hospital and then climbed four flights of stairs. I hadn't been in Reception more than 20-seconds before the nurse took my BP. My arm wasn't supported and was just hanging down. The reading was 175/92. Within 60 seconds the SYS had dropped over 20 points. They should have waited 5-10 minutes before taking the BP reading. Anyhow, because of those temporarily high readings the doctor prescribed yet more BP tablets and statins. And yet every reading I've taken since is around 118/72. That's crazy healthcare. I won't be taking the new meds - at least until it shoots up consistently.

I wish I had this advice 15 years ago when HBP started, now I’m 59 and following your advice my blood pressure is better than it has been in a very long time. At the time my Dr put me on meds and sent me on my way………..did not give any advice life style changes to help me!! I have had to find all the natural solutions myself, however your channel is by far the best advice I’ve ever found!!! Thank you so much!!!

Hi Adam watching your show from UK, I love how you talk, and tell us all the right information as Doctors don't tell us anything

Thank you, Dr. story! I have experienced high blood pressure for the first time in the last few days. It’s been very scary to me with the most common readings being in the range of 188/115. I have an appointment with my primary care physician this morning and I really didn’t want to go on medication but felt like it was the only option. I was fortunate to find your video and I did both exercises you suggested for about six minutes and had the first normal reading that I’ve had in three days 127/75. Thank you for giving me hope that there’s things I can do personally to influence my healing 🙏💙

Thank you. I did the breathing exercise for five minutes and my reading was 115/74. This is a very good reading for me. I have been drinking hibiscus tea every night. I will also try the squeezing exercises. I suffer terribly with anxiety and PVCs. This exercise helped with that too!! I love it when people share this kind of knowledge and it alleviates suffering. Beautiful human behaviour - you have my sincere gratitude ❤.

My BP earlier today was 144/89 and after trying the breathing exercise for a few minutes, it dropped to 127/92. After lunch is spiked to over 150, but doing the exercises it dropped to 132/87. A bit of bouncing back and forth but I'm hooked on the breathing. Think I'll text my doctor with some good news! Thank you!

The breathing method works great for anxiety, blood pressure and pain. I get weekly therapeutic deep massages and use when something is painful in my muscles I breath in then breath out during the painful parts. It works for other pain as well whether because it distracts you or helps you calm down which also decreases pain. Swearing through painful moments is scientifically proven to help endure pain as well.

I was able to lower my blood pressure by following and sticking to a ketogenic diet. As a result I am now off of both Lisinopril and Metoprolol.

You are such a blessing DR🙏🏿 These are things your regular DR do not tell you, all they want is to put you on meds😡

I didn’t know about the squeeze toy. My wife uses one all the time so I’m gonna have to steal one of them. The breathing is good practice even if your blood pressure is good for overall health. I remember donating blood and my pressure would be high. I think we can all agree that there is a body response in certain settings that trigger a rise in pressure.

Thank you, Dr. Story. Simple & easy way of breathing. What a way to simplify life.
