Suggest Methods To Reduce BP Without Taking Medication

I am a 41 year old woman and I just took my bp and it is reading 153/103 and 160/103. I've been experiencing hbp every since I had my children I have five, the youngest is 10 months. I've been exercising and watching my diet and I haven't experienced any improvements. I want to avoid taking pills. What should I do?

Dear friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Already on diet and exercise, the only thing is relaxation techniques like bio feed back and yoga

This level of pressure is unlikely to be controlled without drugs
The best course is to take drugs / Pressure is a silent killer... but treatable / Beware!

Take care     
God bless
