Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)

Integrative hypertension treatment in Kansas City. Root-cause approach to high blood pressure addressing stress, metabolic dysfunction, and mineral imbalances. Serving the KC metro area.

More Than Just a Number

High blood pressure affects nearly half of all American adults, and it's the single largest modifiable risk factor for heart disease and stroke. Yet most patients receive the same treatment: a prescription and a reminder to eat less salt.

At Rooted Heart Wellness, we take a different approach. We ask why your blood pressure is elevated — and then we address those root causes alongside conventional treatment when needed.

Common Root Causes We Investigate

• Chronic stress and cortisol dysregulation — the #1 overlooked driver
• Insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction
• Mineral imbalances — magnesium, potassium, and sodium ratios
• Sleep apnea and sleep quality issues
• Endothelial dysfunction — the health of your blood vessel lining
• Gut-derived inflammation affecting vascular function

Our Integrative Approach

We combine advanced functional testing with evidence-based lifestyle interventions and, when appropriate, medication optimization. The goal is not just to lower your numbers — it's to restore healthy vascular function and reduce your long-term cardiovascular risk.

Many of our patients from Raytown, Independence, North Kansas City, and across the metro have been on blood pressure medications for years without ever being offered a root-cause evaluation. If that describes your experience, you deserve better answers.

We see patients in person in the Kansas City area and via telehealth across Kansas and Missouri — from Gladstone and Pleasant Valley to Overland Park and Olathe.
