Blood Pressure services offered in Portland, OR
Blood pressure support services offered in-person and via telehealth in Oregon Elevated blood pressure is rarely a standalone problem - it is usually a signal of broader cardiovascular and metabolic dysregulation. Naturopathic physicians Rebecca Sand ND and Elizabeth Emrick ND at Open Wellness PDX investigate and treat the root causes of hypertension using advanced lab testing, clinical nutrition, targeted supplementation, and lifestyle medicine.
Common drivers of elevated blood pressure include insulin resistance, cortisol dysfunction, magnesium and potassium deficiency, kidney stress, chronic inflammation, poor sleep, excess sodium intake, and nervous system dysregulation. Advanced lab testing helps identify which factors are most relevant for each patient. Treatment may include therapeutic nutrition, evidence-based nutrients and botanicals including magnesium, CoQ10, taurine, hawthorn, and omega-3 fatty acids; amino acid support; nutrient optimization; stress physiology tools; movement prescription; and pharmaceutical options when needed.
