According to an embodiment of a method for using an implantable device to deliver a hypertension therapy to a patient, an activity level is sensed using the implantable medical device. The implantable device may be programmed with a mapping of the sensed activity level to intensity levels for the hypertension therapy. The method may determine a desired intensity for the hypertension therapy as a function of both a circadian rhythm template and the sensed activity level, and use the implantable device to deliver the hypertension therapy using the desired intensity.
