title: [Non-pharmacological methods of the treatment of initial stages of arterial hypertension in automobile drivers].
abstract: The difficulties in hypotensive treatment of arterial hypertension (AH) in drivers encouraged the search for effective methods of correction of elevated arterial pressure (AP). During 5 years a group of 631 drivers with different levels of elevated AP was examined. For their treatment a complex of non-pharmacological methods was proposed, i.e., exercise therapy, preshift gymnastics, psychoemotional relief, autotraining, punctate massage, electric sleep, balneotherapy, decoction of sedative and plant diuretics. The dynamics of mean indices of diastolic pressure and high efficiency of using non-pharmacological methods for treating AH in drivers were demonstrated. The absence of adverse and undesirable effects of non-pharmacological AH-control methods enabled one to regard them as an effective means of treatment of the drivers with the initial AH stages.
