P02.61. Does yogic breathing (pranayama) improve cardiovascular control?
Purpose One proposed mechanism by which meditative practices improve cardiovascular health is via shifting sympathovagal balance. Yet few studies have examined the effects of these practices upon autonomic cardiovascular control. In this context, we hypothesized that yogic breathing differentially impacts heart period (RR-interval) and systolic blood pressure fluctuations compared with paced br...

متن کاملAcute effects on cardiovascular oscillations during controlled slow yogic breathing
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Breathing exercises are believed to modulate the cardiovascular oscillations in the body. To assess the validity of the assumption and understand the underlying mechanism, the key autonomic regulatory parameters such as heart rate variability (HRV), blood pressure variability (BPV) and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) were recorded during controlled slow yogic breathing. Alt...
متن کاملEffect of yogic bellows on cardiovascular autonomic reactivity
CONTEXT Yoga is an ancient science, which originated in India. Pranayama has been assigned a very important role in yogic system of exercises. It is known that regular practice of breathing exercises (pranayama) increases parasympathetic tone, decreases sympathetic activity, and improves cardiovascular functions. Different types of breathing exercises alter autonomic balance for good by either ...
متن کاملEffects of Various Prāṇāyāma on Cardiovascular and Autonomic Variables
Cardiovascular functions are controlled by neural factors, temperature, hormones, etc., Of these, neural factors primarily concern the autonomic nervous system, which plays a major role in maintaining and regulating cardiac functions, e.g., blood pressure and heart rate. Prāṇāyāma is one of the most important yogic practices. There are various review articles on Yoga and its effects but, though...
