NCT05110365

Brief Summary

To determine the effect of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation exercise on blood pressure in patient with mild to moderate hypertension.Both genders will be included.Patients aged between 40 and 60 years with mild and moderate hypertension.Systolic blood pressure 130-160 mmHg or Diastolic Blood Pressure 80-100 mmHg. Sphygmomanometer and EuroQoL five-dimensional instrument would be used for the 'Pre' \& 'Post' assessment.

Interventions

The patient will be provided with mild to moderate resistance PNF pattern which is a type of Endurance training which decreases BP through a reduction in systemic vascular resistance(15).In a regimen as follow with the frequency of 3 days a week, a repetition of 3 sets for one hour and a total duration of 3 months(16). The PNF patterns will be diagonal 1 (D1) and diagonal 2 (D2) patterns. Both patterns are subdivided into: A) Moving into Flexion: the toes start flexed and ends extended. Ankle and foot start plantar flexed; everted and ends dorsiflexed inverted. Tibia starts externally rotated and ends internally rotated. Knee starts extended, and ends flexed. The hip starts extended, abducted, internally rotated and ends flexed, adducted, externally rotated.B) Moving into Extension: The start and end are reversed to "D1 Moving into Flexion"
