Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The patients of this study will be randomly assigned into 2 equal groups (n=40):
Study Group A: (20 patients) Will receive Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises in addition to medical treatment programme.
Control Group B: (20 patients) will receive only the Medical treatment programme.
The program of treatment for the study group will be applied 30 minutes per session , with a maximum of 15 minutes of neurogenic tremors, 3 times per week for 8 consecutive weeks.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
"TRE Exercise Group"
Participants in this group will perform supervised Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercise (TRE) sessions in addition to their usual medical treatment for hypertension. The TRE sessions will be conducted three times per week for eight weeks, and each session will last approximately 30 minutes. The exercises aim to promote relaxation, reduce tension, and improve sleep quality, and quality of life.
Tension and trauma releasing exercises
Tension and trauma releasing exercises will be conducted for study group only as follows: The exercises start by slightly fatiguing specific muscle groups to encourage this involuntary shaking, which is considered healthy and calming.
The first exercise: Feet roll gently outward while shifting weight side to side, helping release ankle tension.
The second exercise: One foot steps back while the front heel lifts until the calf feels lightly tired, triggering a small shake.
The third exercise: A small lunge-like position engages the thighs and hips, leading to natural muscle release.
The fourth exercise: A soft bend at the hips with relaxed arms and deep breathing stretches the back and encourages loosening.
The fifth exercise: With feet wide and hands on the lower back, the hips push forward slightly while breathing deeply and turning gently side to side.
The sixth exercise: The body slides into a seated position against a wall to lightly fatigue the
"Control Group"
Participants in this group will continue their usual medical treatment for hypertension without any additional exercise intervention. They will receive the same assessments for sleep quality, and quality of life as the experimental group.
No interventions assigned to this group
