Neutral immersion bath has been extensively used by naturopathy physicians in the management of hypertension but along with Epsom salt have not been studied. Subsequently this study was done to survey the prompt impact of full immersion bath on blood pressure and heart rate changeability and in this manner to substantiate the clinical understanding of its impact in hypertensive people. Pre diagnosed 20 hypertensive subjects were randomly allocated into case and control groups who received full immersion bath and supine rest respectively for 20 minutes and were assessed for BP a immediately in pre and post intervention periods. Results of the full immersion bath with Epsom salt, indicates the sympathetic withdrawal with the simultaneous parasympathetic activation shifting the sympathovagal balance towards parasympathetic dominance thereby supporting the use of full immersion bath with Epsom salt in the management of hypertension.
