Ruth McCaffrey1, Pratum Ruknui, Urai Hatthakit, Payao Kasetsomboon.   

Abstract

To determine the effectiveness of a yoga program on blood pressure and stress, a group of hypertensive patients in Thailand were studied, with the experimental group showing significantly decreased mean stress scores and blood pressure, heart rate, and body mass index levels compared with the control group. Further studies are suggested to determine the effects of yoga on hypertension in Thailand.
