Light on the wrist: a new way to tame high blood pressure?

This study tests whether shining a specific red laser light on the wrist (over the radial artery) can improve blood pressure and blood vessel function in people with hypertension who are already taking the medication losartan. Eighty adults will be randomly assigned to receive either the active light therapy or a sham (fake) treatment twice a week for four weeks. The goal is to see if this painless, non-invasive approach can offer additional cardiovascular benefits beyond standard medication.
