First seen May 14, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether teaching people with high blood pressure to press specific points on their body (self-acupressure) can lower their blood pressure, reduce stress, and improve well-being. About 72 adults with stage 1 or 2 hypertension will be randomly assigned to real acupressure, fake acupressure, or usual care for 2 weeks. The goal is to see if this simple, drug-free technique can be a helpful addition to standard treatment.
