An Overview of the Mechanism of Massage Therapy for Essential Hypertension

原发性高血压(EH)是严重危害人类健康的常见慢性心血管疾病,也是心血管疾病最重要的危险因素。由于目前药物治疗的副作用和终身服药的局限性使得寻找更加有效且安全性高的治疗手段十分迫切。推拿作为中医外治疗法的一部分,已被证实有平稳、安全的降压效应。随着临床研究的深入,推拿降压的机制研究也有了新的进展。通过从内分泌机制、神经机制、血管调节机制3个方面入手,总结近5年来推拿治疗EH的研究文献,探讨推拿降压的作用机制,为推拿降压中医外治疗法的普及推广提供科学依据。
