Besides exercise, improving lifestyle is a non-drug measure to treat hypertension. If non-drug measures can't control blood pressure, please take medicine in time.

The Guidelines for the Prevention and Treatment of Hypertension in China clearly pointed out that the treatment of hypertension includes non-drug treatment measures and drug treatment measures. Non-drug measures are to improve lifestyle, and all patients with hypertension should improve their lifestyle.

Lifestyle intervention mainly includes:

1, salt reduction: It is suggested that the daily salt intake of each person should be gradually reduced to below 6 g, while the potassium intake should be increased. 2. Reasonable diet: A reasonable diet is a balanced diet. The diet is mainly composed of fruits, vegetables, low-fat dairy products, whole grains from protein rich in dietary fiber and plants, so as to reduce the intake of saturated fat and cholesterol.

3. Weight control: Develop body mass index (BMI).

6. Relieve mental stress: maintain psychological balance, social support, individualized intervention, psychological adjustment, etc.

Therefore, in controlling hypertension, exercise can benefit. Of course, we should pay attention to those intense and antagonistic exercises, which will make people excited and secrete a lot of adrenaline. At this time, blood pressure rises instead of falling.
