How RESPeRATE Lowers Blood Pressure
High blood pressure is generally caused by your blood vessels tightening up and narrowing; this then causes your heart to pump harder. RESPeRATE's unique breathing exercise relaxes constricted blood vessels to reduce high blood pressure.
Simply listen to the melody through the headphones and synchronize your breathing to the tones. By prolonging the exhalation tone RESPeRATE guides you to slow your breathing and reach the "therapeutic zone" of less than 10 breaths per minute.
The physiological result? The muscles surrounding the small blood vessels in your body dilate, and relax. Blood is allowed to flow more freely, and pressure is directly, significantly lowered.
RESPeRATE's "Interactive Respiratory Pacing" Technology Makes The Difference
Scientific evidence has shown that structured therapeutic breathing, if performed without an effort or particular concentration, can significantly lower your blood pressure. However, these effortless therapeutic breathing sessions are difficult to perform on your own without years of training or continuous, individualized coaching. That is why RESPeRATE was developed.
To deliver effortless therapeutic breathing without any prior training, RESPeRATE utilizes a patented "Interactive Respiratory Pacing" technology, which ingeniously takes advantage of the body's natural tendency to follow external rhythms.

Who Should Use RESPeRATE
Whether you are already taking anti-hypertension medication or still trying to lower blood pressure with diet and exercise, RESPeRATE might just be the tool you need.
Clinically Proven
Seven clinical trials repeatedly found RESPeRATE to be safe and effective for people with high blood pressure, either medicated or unmedicated, male or female, younger and older.
In fact RESPeRATE is the only non-drug therapy that has been clinically proven over and over again to lower blood pressure. One particular study, published in American Journal of Hypertension, even found that RESPeRATE delivered significant blood pressure reductions for people who had uncontrolled blood pressure despite taking three or more medications at maximum dosage.

Love this little guy!,
By Veronicca "Veronicca V." (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: RESPeRATE Ultra Blood Pressure Lowering Device (Health and Beauty)
After being diagnosed as pre-hypertensive and with High Blood Pressure in my family, my doctor warned me to begin making lifestyle modifications to control my rising blood pressure or begin taking medications! Being only in my 30s, I am against taking medications...however, working full time and being a busy mom & wife, I do not have the time to work out. I also do not have the time or energy to eat properly. I read about the Resperate in a newspaper & began my own research. The reviews are great so I decided to buy the Ultra Resperate about 2 months ago. My BP readings had been around 130-140/90-95. Since using the Resperate Ultra, my BP reading on 10/29/09 was 118/75 and 111/76 today! To say I'm THRILLED is an understatement! I use my Resperate Ultra 4 times a week right before I turn out my lights. I find that it relaxes me and I feel that I've also been sleeping better since using it. I LOVE my Resperate Ultra & would recommend it to anyone!

This item did NOT work for me. I bought it a few years ago, and after I used it very religiously for several weeks, as per the instructions, I found that it DID NOT WORK for me.
However, that is not why I am giving it a bad review -- it, obviously will not work for everyone. Anyway, the reason for giving it a ONE rating is that after I used the item for the several weeks as it said in the instructions, I mailed the item back with all of the paperwork, box, in great condition, etc to RESPERATE. Several days later I got a phone call from a very nice RESPERATE employee saying that they could NOT give me a refund as I missed the deadline by a couple of weeks -- I said that the instructions said it would lower BP within several weeks of use -- unfortunately at that time their instructions and guarantee did not CLEARLY show the note about a 30 DAY TRIAL PERIOD -- I had not read the small print. Anyway, no matter how much I argued with the very nice person on the other end of the phone, they would not refund me, and they sent the resperate back to me-- I then put it up in the attic. I had forgotten about having it being in the attic until I started getting spam emails again from Resperate -- I guess I'll be putting it on ebay. The point is you will need to make your decision whether it is working or not way BEFORE the 30 DAYS so you can get it in the post and return it.

Was very skeptical, but seems to work,

This review is from: RESPeRATE Ultra Blood Pressure Lowering Device, One User (Health and Beauty)
After a life time of "white coat" hypertension, it appeared, as my doctors predicted it probably would, that my hypertension was starting to occur even under normal conditions. I was someone who checked my bp fairly regularly, and while I was still not in frightening high range, I was growing concerned. I am fairly fanatic about working out at the gym, but apparently that wasn't sufficient. I knew the hypertension drugs might be necessary but I saw the toll (including serious medical toll) they took on my father, so I wasn't anxious to take them unless that was the only recourse. So, I was willing to shell out $300 on a natural alternative, even though I was fairly convinced it would not work. I have to say to my shock it really does work. Now I was someone whose upper bp was up to ranging from 130-140s, and now it is generally in the low- mid 120s. I am 59. My lower is in the 60-75 range. I assume someone might be able to accomplish the slower breathing exercises without such an expensive machine, but I probably wouldn't have. It does figure out your breathing pattern, and develop a musical cue system that works with how you breathe. Also i have to say that at a result, at times when i feel like I'm starting to get too anxious about something, I just start slowing my breathing down to calm myself and my bp. I hesitate to give it 5 stars, since I would like to see how I do over a long term, but so far so good. I don't know if it's the answer for everyone, but I decided to write this review because I think there are people who it can actually help. Even though I was a doubting Thomas, my superficial research before I bought it showed that even the establishment medical authorities endorsed it.
