These therapeutic breathing exercises are
difficult to effectively perform without the interactive,
personalized coaching that RESPeRATE provides.
Proven to Work
RESPeRATE has been written about in many leading
medical journals, magazines, and books, including the American
Heart Association's, "Hypertension Primer" and the Mayo Clinic's,
"On High Blood Pressure".
RESPeRATE's therapeutic benefit was validated
in six separate clinical studies, delivering an average reduction
of 14/9.
Thousands of patients are using and witnessing
the benefits of RESPeRATE
How RESPeRATE Lowers Blood Pressure
RESPeRATE utilizes a patented technology
to pace your breathing from the normal range of 14 to 19 breaths
per minute to the "therapeutic zone" of under 10 breaths per
minute.
Within a few minutes into the exercise the
muscles surrounding the small blood vessels dilate [relax],
thereby allowing blood to flow more freely, resulting in lower
blood pressure. The RESPeRATE's pacing technology, enables
you to perform these therapeutic breathing maneuvers effortlessly.
Your breathing returns to normal after each
session but the beneficial impact on your blood pressure accumulates.
With regular use of the RESPeRATE significant and sustained
reduction in blood pressure can be achieved.
Clinical Studies
A Strong Medical & Scientific Foundation
Guided by a world-renowned Scientific Advisory
Board, InterCure, the maker of RESPeRATE, is committed to
evidence-based medicine, clinical validation and a sound scientific
foundation.
The Company has already demonstrated strong
clinical validation for RESPeRATE. Clinical achievements for
RESPeRATE, our non-drug medical device for lowering blood
pressure, include:
The first and only medical device indicated
for the adjunctive treatment of hypertension.
14/9 mmHg average sustained blood pressure
reductions within 8 weeks.
No side effects, no drug interactions.
Results of six clinical trials were published
in peer-reviewed medical journals. [1-5] .
