Borderline hypertension, does exercise really control it?

Has anyone had luck keeping off of blood pressure medication through exercise and diet?  Or is it a given you will be on medication once you are borderline?  Thoughts?

Yes! Doing meditation or some yoga or exercises can really control hypertension. A single workout can reduce blood pressure for an entire day, and regular exercise can keep the pressure down for the long run.
