No need to take blood pressure pills now? Scientists are testing a device that can reduce BP by stimulating nerves
A recent study shows that stimulating the ear can help lower blood pressure. Known as transcutaneous autonomic neuromodulation, this innovative approach may offer an effective solution for managing hypertension. In a clinical trial with 63 participants who struggled with uncontrolled hypertension despite medication, those with severe cases displayed encouraging results. However, further research is essential to validate the efficacy of this non-invasive technique.
