Zona Plus - Natural and Effective Cardiovascular Health

by Zona Plus

Product Features

• The Zona Plus is a natural solution that uses precise handgrip exercises to improve your cardiovascular health.

Product Description

The Zona Plus is a small handheld isometric therapy device that has been scientifically proven to improve cardiovascular health. Completing the Zona Plus therapy only requires 12 minutes 5 days a week... that's all!
The therapy is simple. First, you squeeze as hard as you can for 1-2 seconds with your right hand, then with your left, each followed by 10 seconds of rest. Next you're directed through four 2-minute sessions, 2 with each hand, separated by 1-minute rest periods. And you just need to do 5 therapy sessions a week to see improvements in your cardiovascular health.
Research indicates that there may be two major measurable effects upon the body caused by Zona Plus therapy. One is improvement in endothelial dysfunction and the other is improved vagal function (a "relaxing" effect). The medical theory for how the isometric therapy devices lower blood pressure is that the combined effects of improved vagal (autonomic nervous system) function and improved endothelial function cause the blood vessels to strengthen, dilate, and become more flexible. These changes reduce resistance to blood flow and allow the heart to move blood through the body more effectively.

1.0 out of 5 stars Didn't work for me, March 7, 2009

This review is from: Zona Plus - Natural and Effective Cardiovascular Health (Health and Beauty)

I discovered that I have high BP late last year. I purchased the Zona Plus and began regular use on January 7. I was diligent about using the Zona Plus at least 5 times per week as recommended. I also checked my BP at least three times a day and charted it. The Zona literature states that you will see results in 4 to 6 weeks and maximum results after 8 weeks. I am writing this review on March 7, just over 8 weeks after starting. I am sorry to say, that I haven't seen any change in my blood pressure. In fact, if anything it is trending upward during the last week. This is very disappointing as I had high hopes for this device. The manufacturer states that 10% of people won't see any benefit. Since I am already out the $$$, I will continue to use this device in the off chance that I might be an outlier and need a longer period to see any benefit. If I see any improvement I will amend my review. Until then, be skeptical.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bought TWO, February 25, 2009

From my experience using Zona Plus for over a year, this is an amazingly effective product for the treatment of high blood pressure. When I started with the product I was generally 135/90. After a few months I was 118/77. I was so impressed that I bought one for my brother. (We would have just shared the same Zona, but we do not live nearby.) Now, he is also lowering his blood pressure. I am a Ph.D.--the mystery is that more M.D.s are not promoting the Zona Plus. I strongly recommend this great product!

1.0 out of 5 stars Lacked quality control, August 12, 2009

I bought the product and when I had a few questions it took 5 tries to get an answer. Then it stopped working after a month. I contacted Zona and they told me to return it and after "fixing" it it was worse. I emailed them again and this time they simply didn't respond so I returned it again and once more they sent it back to me operating even worse then before. I emailed them asking for a refund or since I had a lemon for a new replacement model. They never replied. How well the product works I have no idea since it lasted about as long as a $4.99 hair dryer from a discount drug store. Overall what I can attest to is their customer support is terrible and their quality control worse.
