With the improvement of people living standard and life rhythm accelerate, known as "rich man's disease" of the "three high" (that is, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and high blood sugar) poses a serious threat to people's health. The incidence rate showed an upward trend year by year. The hypertension is located in the "three high" first, nouns in modern medicine, there is no disease name in ancient books of traditional Chinese medicine, belonging to the traditional Chinese medicine "headache" "vertigo" category, and "palpitation", "chest pain" and "stroke" "edema" have a certain relationship. For the pathogenesis of yin and yang balance in the body disorders, plus long-term mental stress, worries angry or excessive drinking, spicy, fertilizer, Gan matter, caused liver yang hyperactivity of yin deficiency of liver and kidney, both reinforce each other, and send biochemical fire dynamic wind, phlegm and other pathological changes. General early to Yang Kang who more. In the middle is yin yang hyperactivity,, deficiency and excess syndromes; later see Yin, Yin what is wound and positive or dominated by Yang.
The "Yellow Emperor" recorded in the "Zhu wind off dazzle, all belonging to the liver" is the earliest knowledge of hypertension. Today, Chinese medicine treatment of hypertension is more and more welcomed by patients. So, what are the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of hypertension?
Symptoms improved significantly

And traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is to treatment based on syndrome differentiation based, emphasizing the overall treatment, such as when the blood pressure and the emergence of symptoms of headache, dizziness, headache, insomnia, irritability etc., TCM believes that is mostly caused by Yin deficiency of liver and kidney, yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity, yang hyperactivity of fire, with the therapy of clearing heat and purging fire, calming the liver to stop the wind, can make blood pressure decline at the same time, the symptoms improved.

The heart failure and renal failure caused by target organs are often more deadly than those with hypertension. The Chinese medicine in the treatment of certain organs of the reversal of the reversal and complications of prevention and treatment have a certain role, so that the heart, brain, kidney and other target organs to be protected.
Combined with western medicine to reduce side effects
Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of hypertension has advantages, but also have limitations, such as the recent efficacy of Chinese medicine is low, and the recent efficacy of Western medicine is higher, but the side effect is relatively large. Clinical practice has proved that the use of Integrated Chinese and Western medicine treatment of hypertension is better than the effect of single use of Western medicine or single use of traditional Chinese medicine, with the advantages of fast, high efficacy, less side effects, etc..
Buck is smooth and gentle
Western medicine in the treatment of hypertension in the process, often appear to reach the target blood pressure and frequent increase or reduce the dosage and so on, so will often appear the phenomenon of floating blood pressure. And the traditional Chinese medicine antihypertensive effect and slow, stable blood pressure effect better, especially for early, in elderly patients with essential hypertension, but also to prevent large fluctuations in the blood pressure.
