This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a device called the Zona Plus Device that uses isometric hand grip exercises — a type of muscle-tightening exercise where you squeeze without moving your arm — to help lower blood pressure. Researchers want to see if doing these exercises regularly can reduce blood pressure in people diagnosed with elevated or high blood pressure.
Many people struggle to control their blood pressure with medication alone, or prefer to explore non-drug options. This treatment offers a potentially simple, non-medication approach that people can do at home to help manage their blood pressure.

If you join this study, you will be randomly assigned to either use the Zona Plus Device for hand grip exercises or listen to relaxing music via a mobile app as a control. You will visit the clinic multiple times over 3 to 8 months for blood pressure checks and to make sure you're following the study plan correctly. The device tracks your exercise completion automatically, while the music group will keep a diary of their listening sessions. After the study ends, control group participants may have the option to try the device themselves.
