مستخلص: The article discusses a study which nvestigated the long-term effect of massage therapy on blood pressure in prehypertensive women. With blood pressure as main outcome, results showed that women in the massage group have lower mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure compared to the control group. Two weeks later both groups had no significant difference in blood pressure suggesting that massage has no long-term effects in controlling blood pressure.
