RESPeRATE Blood Pressure Lowering Device

Excellent little device
I am 46 years old and have been on and off BP medication for several years. My kidneys make too much renin causing the BP to rise, however, I also don't handle stress very well, so stress is definitely part of the reason why my pressure gets too high. Yesterday was an extremely stressful day. When I got home from work my BP was 180/96. I sat down and used my Resperate for 15 minutes. I waited about a half hour and took my BP again and was thrilled to see it was now 113/80. I need to make a habit of using Resperate every day since the medication alone isn't cutting it. It is very obvious to me that it was because of using the machine that my BP normalized.

Judge for yourself
I have used this machine for about a month. It has dropped my bp a couple points nothing great. It takes awhile to get the breathing right but once I did I found that I enjoyed that the most. I have study yoga and meditation it is hard to stay fouced without a being in a class. I tried the slow breathing with out the resperate and I found myself checking the time on the clock and not concentrating on the breath.I hope my bp will keep dropping as I will keep using the machine.I find the machine pricy but so was the yoga classes and mats,blocks,ect. The company could have done a better job making the machine and dropped the price to $150-$200 and I would say it is well worth it but at $300 it is a pricy all tho I did buy one.

Still uncertain
The product is easy to use. I've only done 19 sessions with Resp e rate and have experienced a modest reduction in my morning blood pressure. It is still too soon to tell whether or not a long lasting reduction will occur with continued use of this device.

Resperate for Blood pressure
I am using this once a day, usually in the evening. It is calming, much like Yoga music and breathing. I am one of the users that has some trouble falling to sleep while using but believe the breathing and relaxation time will eventually do some lowering for me. I have not had this unit for very long and have a very stubborn blood pressure that I have had for years. This will be a good testing for my blood pressure. I believe people with elevation that is pushing them toward medicine should see good results. My blood pressure is some better but am doctoring right now for adjustment in medications. I will inform later of my results as time goes on. There are so many good reports on this Resperate, that I just had to give it a good try. I caught the 90 dollars off sale. Otherwise, I felt very expensive.

may as well shred your money for a ticker tape parade
I guess this product may work a bit if your hypertension is caused by too rapid, too shallow breathing otherwise forget about it. The machine prompts you to inhale and exhale to musical tones until your breath rate reaches 10 breaths per second then it lowers your breath rate to the point that if you follow the cues your breath rate will get down to about 4 1/2 breaths per minute. The problem with this is the manual suggests not letting your rate fall below 5 breaths per minute so then why doesn't it stabilize around 6 breaths per minute? When I contacted customer service I NEVER got a response. This is a sure sign of a company selling a ripoff product. I've had it for a few months and it mostly had no effect on my blood pressure but what was worse is that on a few occasions I took my blood pressure before using the Resperate and after where my blood pressure was actually HIGHER afte using the product.
