Frequently Asked Questions

Zona Plus is a computer-controlled device, which takes a user through a therapy session that is clinically proven to lower high blood pressure. It fits easily into the palm of your hand.

Any person who suffers from any form of high blood pressure can benefit from the Zona Plus. Studies indicate that even patients with diabetes or other complicating factors such as those with apparent drug resistance and those who are unable to perform other kinds of exercises are able to see positive results with the Zona therapy.

When used as directed, the Zona Plus reduces blood pressure in non-medicated patients from 5 mmHg to 55 mmHg, with an average drop of 25+ mmHg. Individuals who are taking medication see average drops of 19mmHg.

You will see a measurable drop in your resting systolic blood pressure after about 4-5 weeks. Maximum benefits are achieved in only 6 to 8 weeks.

The Zona Plus is a controlled, low-intensity, personalized therapy that monitors the user to ensure a safe and effective reduction of blood pressure. If your physician has placed limits on your physical activity we recommend that you consult him/her before beginning the Zona Plus therapy.

Because the Zona therapy is concentrated and targeted, you only have to do it five times a week, and each session takes only 12 minutes a day. The battery-powered Zona Plus is completely portable, so you can use it conveniently.

Just as with medication or other forms of exercise, the beneficial effects of Zona Plus therapy will slowly disappear if you discontinue use.

The Zona therapy fits your lifestyle. If you happen to miss a day because of your busy schedule, just use the device the next day. The most important concept for your health is that you perform the therapy at least 5 times a week. Remember, the schedule is up to you!

No. The Zona Plus is a monitored therapy that ensures an effective change in the body.

No. You should consult your physician prior to reducing or discontinuing any hypertension medication. However, many physicians have recommended reducing or stopping the use of medication.

For many people the Zona Plus lowers blood pressure so effectively that drug therapy can ultimately be discontinued. Your physician should monitor your blood pressure and perform periodic physical examinations to monitor your health.

Aerobic exercise—running, biking, etc., is good for you but the Zona Plus is a highly-targeted therapy aimed specifically at lowering blood pressure. Clinical studies have consistently shown that the Zona therapy, performed as recommended, is three to four times more effective at lowering blood pressure than 30 minutes of vigorous aerobic exercise performed three times per week.

Here are some other advantages:
Zona Plus therapy is far less stressful than aerobic exercise. Virtually anyone can perform the low-impact therapy routine without strain or fatigue.
Zona Plus is convenient. With the compact, battery-powered Zona Plus, you can exercise quietly, anywhere, anytime. No additional equipment, no "warming up," no special attire. Convenience is why user compliance is extremely high compared with aerobic exercise.
Studies have shown that 50% of adults discontinue aerobic exercises within 3 to 6 months, and fewer than 20% continue exercising after 24 months.

A publication from Harvard Medical School stated, “…the Zona Plus has been shown to lower blood pressure as much as a first line anti-hypertensive drug.” Physicians who are familiar with the Zona Plus and the benefits it offers to its users give their hearty recommendation to the product.
