In Ayurveda, high blood pressure is associated with an imbalance in the Vata, Pitta, and Kapha Doshas. Aggravated Vata affects the nervous system, leading to stress and irregular blood flow, while Pitta causes inflammation and heat in the body. Kapha imbalance can lead to cholesterol buildup and sluggish circulation. Ayurvedic treatments aim to restore this balance, detoxify the body, and enhance cardiovascular function.
