Interested in learning how leg warming may affect your blood pressure?

The Women’s Heart Health Research Lab, headed by Dr. Qi Fu, focuses on blood pressure control in women across their lifespan.

We are currently conducting a SPA Research Study to understand whether a non-drug treatment, such as local (lower leg) heating is effective in lowering blood pressure in women 60-85 years old who have elevated/high blood pressure.

You may qualify if your blood pressure is 130-179 mmHg (systolic blood pressure; top number) and/or 80-109 mmHg (diastolic blood pressure; bottom number) and you are not currently taking hormone replacement therapy.

Qualified volunteers will receive:

Comprehensive assessment of blood pressure

Assessment of heart and blood vessel function

Monetary compensation for study participation

Study procedures include:

Evaluation of your heart and blood vessel function

8 weeks of home-based lower leg heat therapy (portable spa provided)

If you don’t meet the study criteria, do you know someone who does?  Please feel free to forward this information to them.
