The purpose of this study was to describe the response to the inclusion of celery juice in the diet of an elderly hypertensive patient with neck pain.
A 74-year-old man presented with neck pain and a history of hypertension as diagnosed by his primary care provider. He had attempted different medications for his hypertension, but he reported that they gave him the side effect of chest discomfort. His initial physical examination blood pressure measurement was 150/80 mmHg.
Interventions included daily intake of celery juice over 6 months, which was approved by his medical doctor's nurse. For his neck pain, chiropractic grade mobilization to the restricted segments of the cervical spine was given over 14 in-office visits. There were no weight changes, addition of exercise, or other lifestyle changes reported. At the end of his care, his blood pressure measured 118/82 mmHg.
This elderly patient responded positively to the inclusion of celery juice and chiropractic care after 6 months.
本研究的目的是描述一名患有颈部疼痛的老年高血压患者在饮食中加入芹菜汁后的反应。
一名74岁男性因颈部疼痛就诊，其初级保健医生诊断有高血压病史。他曾尝试过不同的高血压药物，但他报告说这些药物给他带来了胸部不适的副作用。他初次体格检查时血压测量值为150/80 mmHg。
干预措施包括在6个月内每日饮用芹菜汁，这得到了他的医生护士批准。针对他的颈部疼痛，在14次门诊就诊期间对颈椎受限节段进行了整脊级别的松动治疗。未报告有体重变化、增加运动或其他生活方式改变。在治疗结束时，他的血压测量值为118/82 mmHg。
这位老年患者在6个月后对加入芹菜汁和整脊治疗反应良好。
