alternative treatments for hypertension?

Asked by occ (4176points) October 9th, 2007

My father (in his 60s) is generally healthy but has hypertension…he had a pretty bad reaction to the medication and is wondering about alternative treatments through diet or other holistic approaches (acupuncture? chinese medicine? etc). Anyone have good books/resources to recommend or a good doctor in the NYC area who uses other approaches besides just pills?
