The Atma Approach

High Blood Pressure
(Hypertension)

Treat the root cause, and the disease often goes away.

Why hypertension doesn't have to mean a pill, and then another pill, for the rest of your life.

By Dr. Neela Sandal

The short answer: High blood pressure has a root cause that differs from patient to patient. The Atma Approach is to find and treat it instead of only managing the number with pills.

How Does Mainstream Medicine Treat High Blood Pressure?

Mainstream medicine's approach to high blood pressure is pills.

Try this one, see how you feel. Terrible side effects? Try another. The only side effect is fatigue? Okay — that's "acceptable." Stick with it.

For how long? Likely forever. And the dose will probably climb over time. And it will probably make you tired.

Sound like your last doctor's appointment?

What Does Mainstream Medicine Miss About High Blood Pressure?

High blood pressure has a root cause, and it differs from patient to patient.

High blood pressure has a root cause. It's different from patient to patient — but when you treat it, you don't have to manage the disease with medication for the rest of your life. Because the disease goes away.

Commonly Missed Root Issues

•Low endogenous nitric oxide production
•Metabolic dysfunction leading to receptor fatigue
•High sympathetic tone
•Side effect of another medication
•Underlying organ dysfunction (often correctable)
•Mineral imbalance
