Narrative: An innovative non-pharmacological method of neuroreflex therapy for arterial hypertension (AH) is presented. It targets the key mechanism of AH pathogenesis the neurogenic mechanism, with the leading executive factor being increased activity of the sympathetic nervous system.
The method is characterised by safety, non-invasiveness, and high efficacy with a procedure duration of 15-30 minutes.
To obtain evidence of efficacy, a randomised clinical trial, which is the ‘gold standard’ of evidence-based medicine, has been initiated.
