TEACH IT TUESDAY: What is High Blood Pressure?

High blood pressure (hypertension) means the force of your blood moving through your body is too strong. If it stays high for too long, it can damage your heart, kidneys, eyes, and brain. It’s called the “silent killer” because many people don’t feel sick until something serious happens.

At DivineTouch, we understand that medication alone is not enough to manage chronic hypertension. That’s why we help our patients create a complete plan of care that includes:

• Lifestyle changes like eating heart-healthy meals and staying active

• Minimizing stress and identifying daily stressors

• Taking medication properly

• Checking blood pressure at home

• Keeping follow-up appointments

• Learning the signs and symptoms that may need urgent or emergency care (like severe headache, vision changes, or chest pain)

• Activating emergency protocols when needed. We work closely with doctors, caregivers, spiritual counselors, pharmacies, and community supports to make sure each patient receives whole-person care—body, mind, and spirit.
