Ibuki is not valsalva maneuver, but tandem breathing. To avoid hypertension, when you breath, you never cut the flux of air. Breathing is constant. It is true that there are very bad versions of sanchin kata, and horrible ideas about ibuki, including people that stop breathing while applying extreme pulmonar tension and doing valsalva maneuver. Well, that is wrong.
I tried to post some links, but the forum doesn't allow me to do that because I haven't posted 15 messages yet. I will try to send them to you privately.
