The hidden cause of high blood pressure - Samuel J. Mann

Our common belief is that your blood pressure raises at times of stress, tension, anger and anxiety and that a simple stress reduction plan will be a valuable self-help approach. This book shakes this foundation and provides new research

We all think of our blood pressure rising dramatically in times of anger or acute stress. The case isn't so simple. In fact the author's own extensive research and case studies have led him to the belief that high blood pressure has a deeper, hidden cause in many cases - problems from childhood and blocked emotions. A large percentage of sufferers who haven't fully had the cause of their high blood pressure diagnosed needs to get to the root of the problem with the help of therapy and this book explains the link between the mind and illness. Our unconscious feelings are the root of a whole host of disorders (chronic fatigue syndrome, asthma and colitis for example) and high blood pressure is at the forefront. The book explains why this disorder happens and discusses all drug treatments in addition. Useful case studies make it extremely helpful and readable
