Hypertension comes from two Latin words: hyper and tension.
Hyper refers to high or excessive pressure, and tension refers to tension.
High blood pressure, often known as hypertension, is a condition in which a person
experiences a persistent and prolonged increase in systolic blood pressure of 140
mmHg or higher and diastolic blood pressure of 90 mmHg or higher.
Objective: To obtain an overview of the application of cupping therapy on the
effectiveness of lowering blood pressure in patients at the Zein Holistic Therapy
Clinic in Makassar City.
Research Method: This study is a case study of a patient suffering from high
blood pressure. High blood pressure was used to assess the subject after the
intervention. Additionally, demographic data, headache characteristics, and
anxiety were collected.
Research Results: The analysis showed that cupping therapy significantly
reduced blood pressure. Subjects receiving wet cupping therapy also reported
anxiety.
Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that the application of cupping
therapy to lower blood pressure at the Zein Holistik Therapy Clinic can be an
effective therapeutic option in managing low blood pressure. While further
research with a larger sample size and stricter controls is needed, these results
provide a strong basis for recommending cupping therapy as part of a
comprehensive treatment strategy for lowering blood pressure.
