Hi, how are you.. I’m Lee Eunjoo, an aromatic therapist:) I’m going to explain the essential oils that help manage blood pressure. Before that, I’ll give you a basic explanation of blood pressure first! NORMAL VALUE OF BLOOD PRESSURE AND METHOD FOR PREVENTING AND MANAGING HYPERT

Let’s see what blood pressure means in order to know the normal level of blood pressure:) What is blood pressure?

Blood pressure is the pressure that blood from the heart pushes out the arterial wall. In a word, it’s a measure of the strength of the blood

Blood pressure types include maximum blood pressure (systolic blood pressure) and minimum blood pressure (diastolic blood pressure or relaxation blood pressure).Systolic blood pressure is the blood pressure when the heart contracts and sends blood to the arterial blood vessels, which is the highest at this time. And relaxation blood pressure refers to blood pressure when the heart expands and accepts blood, which is the lowest. normal age-specific blood pressure

The normal blood pressure level is less than 120/80 mmHg.

As you get older, your blood vessels lose elasticity and narrow, causing blood pressure to rise, and the normal blood pressure range is generally defined as less than 120/80 mmHg regardless of age.Some medical scientists refer to Swiss BPRule as “half the age of 100+” as the ideal blood pressure (Messerli FH, 2018).
