Getting active with hypertension – 14 Oct 24
In partnership with Study Active, this webinar will explain what hypertension is and the different stages of hypertension. This will be useful for people living with the condition and professionals who are supporting them including health, social & physical activity professionals.
In Hertfordshire, around 1 in 4 adults live with high blood pressure (hypertension), consistent with the national UK average. However, roughly half are unaware of their condition, as hypertension often presents no symptoms.
We will look at how exercise can benefit hypertension and the exercise guidelines and considerations. We will also briefly discuss some of the medications that are taken for hypertension and the implications of these on exercise.
