The RESPeRate Blood Pressure Lowering Device is a unique device, designed to help you reduce blood pressure by teaching you how to slow and control your breathing. The RESPeRATE device has been hailed by many health care professionals and physicians as an effective form of blood pressure control – especially when compared with the oft alternative of increasing a patient’s medication dosage. It just happened that without telling me, my wife – a heart attack victim two years ago and becoming increasingly irritated by having to take so many pills, went out and bought a RESPeRATE device, wanting to test it for herself and not be biased by my opinion, so this review is perhaps one of my objective and detailed yet.

While there are many glowing reviews on the machine and the device has received numerous endorsements, we felt it was time to put the RESPeRate Blood Pressure Lowering Device through some tests of our own to see if the gadget is all that it is cracked up to be.

How the RESPeRATE Blood Pressure Lowering Device Works

Using a pair of headphones and a computerized monitoring unit, the RESPeRATE devices helps users to control and slow their breathing. The unit also uses a breathing sensor, which is wrapped around the user’s chest or waist and detects and monitors the person’s breathing patterns.

Once the device analyzes the user’s breathing pattern, the machine automatically personalizes a simple melodic tone for the person. The device creates two distinct tones that help the user control their breathing – one for inhaling and the other for exhaling. By listening to the two distinct tones, the user knows when to breathe in and when to breathe out. The device steadily increases the length of the tones, leading the user to a slower and increasingly relaxed breathing pattern. The length of the tones increases until the user is only breathing in and out about 10 times per minute.

Because of the slower and more relaxed breathing, it doesn’t take very long before the muscles that surround the blood vessels in the body start to relax. Because the muscles that surround the vessels are able to relax, the bloods flows easier and blood pressure is reduced. After continued, regular use of the device, the user will become used to the slower breathing exercises and should be able to start controlling his/her own breathing patters; this will ultimately result in lower blood pressure levels on a more permanent basis.

How the RESPeRATE Blood Pressure Device Helps to Reduce Stress

Users of the RESPeRATE device will not only notice a significant reduction in your blood pressure, they will discover that their level of stress is greatly reduced as well. The same method of controlled and slower breathing that helps reduce blood pressure is also a very effective Yoga like technique that has been proven beyond any doubt to relieve stress.

At some time or another, we have all heard the phrase “breathe in and out slowly” when being encouraged to calm down or relax. Well, the RESPeRATE device helps you to do exactly that – breathe more slowly.

Summary

The RESPeRate Blood Pressure Lowering Device is an ingenious device that works very well – especially for those that have a hard time controlling breathing on their own. While the device is expensive (currently between $250 and $300), the benefits the machine offers in terms of helping an individual reduce blood pressure and stress levels seems to be more than a fair trade in the long run. The RESPeRATE device not only increases your chances for longer life, it also enhances the quality of your life.
