RESPeRATE Reviews

I am a 70-year-old male with high blood pressure and a previous heart blockage treated with stents. I have been using RESPeRATE every day since May of 2008, to assist me in managing my health conditions. I credit the use of RESPeRATE as part of my daily routine with helping me to maintain a high level of health for my age allowing me to continue to travel, hike, snow ski and enjoy retirement. Before I started using RESPeRATE I was on higher levels of blood pressure medications that I did not tolerate well. Side effects of these medications included numb and tingling hands and feet, fatigue and nervousness. Every afternoon I look forward to relaxing and being reminded how to breath correctly, deeply and slowly, which assists me in staying within acceptable blood pressure norms. As a long term RESPeRATE user, I have also found that the RESPeRATE breathing techniques become habit and carry forward to everyday life and result in a higher quality of sleep during the night and better overall general health. In summary, using a RESPeRATE machine for 10+ years has been key to keeping my blood pressure and stress levels down to acceptable levels and allowing me to stay active and healthy in my retirement years. I highly recommend it as an effective blood pressure control method, much superior to high doses of medication which come with a range of unpleasant side effects. Unlike medications which also lower blood pressure, the side effects of RESPeRATE- learning to relax, to focus on the moment, and to breathe correctly- are all positive.

About 5 or so years ago I was in the pharmacy department in a local department store and decided to sit down and check my blood pressure. To my astonishment, my top number was in the low 140's while the bottom number was around 80. Not being well educated in what is a good reading and what is not, I knew that the low 140's was not good. I knew that if that was my blood pressure in a non-stressful situation, that the next time I was in my doctor's office, it would be even higher. I literally talked myself into "white coat syndrome". The next time I went to my ob-gyn, my blood pressure reading was an astounding 178/80. I was referred to my primary physician. At that doctor's office, my reading was better but still very high: 160/80. I was told to obtain a home blood pressure monitor and to monitor myself every day for a month -- once in the morning and once in the evening. I did. I was told that if my blood pressure did not come down, I might be prescribed an ace inhibitor. At the time, I had a stressful, high-demanding job which only became unbearably stressful over the years to follow. I was completely against going on medication for the rest of my life and wanted to do everything possible to avoid it. My doctor was of no assistance in guiding me on that path -- his solution was a pill. So I took matters into my own hands and did my own research. I started taking yoga classes. Despite yoga, my top readings were in the 130's to low 140. My bottom number was always in the normal range. Even though I was not overweight, I began a walking regimen which not only kept me in good health, but my dogs as well. And I Googled. It was in one of my Google searches that I found RESPeRATE. I purchased one with the idea that I'd rather spend the money on that than medication co-pays. After going through a few sessions, it calmed me. I felt so relaxed. And it even made me sleepy at a time when I suffered from insomnia. After my RESPeRATE sessions, my blood pressure decreased, and it decreased overall even not immediately following a session. It was such a nice experience that I was using the device nearly every day. I have since put in my retirement papers, and my stress level has decreased exponentially, and the top number in my readings now are typically between 110 and 116. My bottom numbers are well under 80 -- usually between 66 and 77. I totally credit RESPeRATE and an active lifestyle for that. Whenever I get the opportunity to share my story with people on how RESPeRATE has helped me, I do. I recently took a yoga teacher training class and shared it with my classmate who told me that her readings were high and that she intended to look into RESPeRATE.

I have been using this wonderful breathing machine for 3-4 years now. It slows my breathing down and lowers my blood pressure by up to 20 points systolic and 10-15 diastolic. It is essential with labile pressures on medication; but, it has literally saved my life when none were working or unavailable! I have a rare genetic condition which interferes with absorption of blood pressure medications (properly) and have been through many drug trials and changes, many of which would not be possible without RESPeRATE. I use it every day, sometimes up to three times a day. I started with 10 and am now up to 25 minutes per session; sometimes doubling it in one sitting, because it is so calming within minutes with tachycardia. I have learned the technique and can use it in a pinch when not at home; but, there is nothing like a session with the real thing. I am here today, solely because of RESPeRATE and wish for everyone who needs it to receive its benefits. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

As part of an overall program to improve emotional, mental and physical health, I decided to incorporate meditation into my daily schedule and workout routine, as well as a technique to relax and find calmness and tranquility before drifting off to sleep. RESPeRATE is a natural companion and segue to meditation as it is quite literally a form of rhythmic deep breathing. The guiding tones are perfectly designed to help me (or anyone!) slip into a comfortable and easy pattern of deep breathing, which nearly always induces a feeling of calm and confidence. In the morning, when I use RESPeRATE as part of my meditation before work, I find that regardless of the day’s tasks and demands, that after my RESPeRATE session, I am ready to begin and handle whatever may come my way. In the evenings, as my last act before sleep, it is an excellent soporific; all natural; the only “side effect” being a sense of peace and relaxation as I glide into dreamland.

I am forever indebted to RESPeRATE. About 8 years ago at age 75 my blood pressure was 160 / 90. I did not like the idea of taking drugs. I Found RESPeRATE and started using it 3 times a day. Today at 83 my Blood pressure is 124/70. My doctor can not believe it! I can not recommend it enough.. It also has increased my conscious awareness. Yogis are very big on breathing in mediation. RESPeRATE makes it very easy to go into this state by visually seeing what is happening in real time. I am a real person and can be found on Facebook.

I have been using RESPeRATE for over 15 years and have found this device "very effective". I'm not a person into Yoga or Meditation but I like the ease and simplicity of this mechanical breathing device. RESPeRATE along with diet and exercise practiced on a consistent basis has worked for me. Along with blood pressure reduction it also helps me when I am feeling "stressed out". I normally conduct my RESPeRATE session before going to sleep. Sometimes if the BP is creeping up a little I will add in a second session sometime during the day. I used to travel for work and it was easy to bring my RESPeRATE on my business trips. Same for vacations. Personally, I have found at the beginning of each session (when the RESPeRATE device determines your breaths per minute) I will start out by counting to 10 on my inhale and counting to 10 on my exhale. This starts me out at a lower BPM which I believe makes the session more effective. I originally was looking for a "non drug" way of lowering my blood pressure. The device's single purchase cost is about $ 300.00 and lasts for years. If you divide that $300.00 by days of use over time (2,5, 10 years) it's way lower than the cost of many prescription drugs or even a cup of coffee per day. I have recommended to anyone I know that has an issue with high blood pressure to consider adding RESPeRATE to their BP program. I'm 64 and previously never thought I would see BP readings like 115/73 and 120/68 again!

After owning and using the RESPeRATE machine for more than 5 years, I thought I should share my experience with anyone considering trying it out. A friend of mine recommended it to me, and because I was already taking two different BP medications, I was open to try just about anything. As it is often the case with hypertension, my doctor was unable to find a reason, I wasn’t overweight, my diet was healthy and I worked out almost every day. I did have a fairly stressful job however. My initial experience using the RESPeRATE was amazing, I loved that it was easy to use, I could decide the length of the session and I could even take it with me wherever I went. I very quickly started to see results- My BP that previously would increase to 160-170 systolic and lower 90’s diastolic now consistently would be in the upper 120/80. Slowly but steadily, with the assistance of my doctor, and using the RESPeRATE on a daily basis, I was able to get rid of one of the BP medications. I have even since then, been able to get the dose of my other BP medication cut down to less than half of what it used to be. Clearly I would say to anyone with hypertension- don’t even think about it- just get the RESPeRATE- try it - it not only will help with your BP, but can easily work as a meditative treat at the end of long workday or a great way to start your day. Sincerely,

8 years ago, I was just 47 years old, and I had a major health scare. I found out that I was not breathing deep enough to really oxygenate my body. My wife used to call me a "breath holder," and it was really bad for my health. My wife purchased a RESPeRATE for me. When I first started using it, my best rate was a super high/ super unhealthy 22 shallow breaths per minute. I quickly could see a big improvement in physical and mental health after a session on the RESPeRATE. Slow deep breaths turned me into a calm, clear thinking, and healthy person. I now relax to 4-6 deep breaths per minute. After 8 years, I own 2 RESPeRATE machines, as I keep one in my travel bag. After a long drive or flight, I take a quick 20 minute RESPeRATE break, and feel refreshed and ready for more adventures. Thanks RESPeRATE , you have really enhanced my life!

Maybe 10 years ago my husband's coworker told him about a machine that lowers blood pressure naturally - the Resperate. He thought maybe it would help my migraines, so he bought me one. It quickly became what I referred to as "my favorite possession". I even took it on a trip to Europe, and once was questioned by a very concerned flight attendant when I called it my breathing machine. I have tied various breathing apps and different YouTube Videos. Nothing comes close to my RESPeRATE!

The reason it became my favorite possession was because it was the only thing that would put me right to sleep when I desperately needed a nap after a bad night of sleep. I used to see an acupuncturist for years, for migraines (I never found a migraine cure, but over time I am doing much better). Every time the needles would go in, I'd be knocked out, fast asleep. I'd call it "going under". Well unfortunately for my acupuncturist, as soon as I discovered the Resperate, I stopped seeing her because I could put myself "under" right in my own bed. As you know, catching up on sleep is a game changer, a marriage saver. RESPeRATE gave me my life back! Thank you so much!

I first heard about the RESPeRATE machine from my friend who started using it approximately ten years ago to avoid going on medication to lower his blood pressure. After using it twice a week over a period of time he saw a significant difference. The RESPeRATE machine kept his blood pressure in check. He shared the good news with me. Although my blood pressure has always been in the "normal" range, I decided to order one to use as a preventive measure. During the past five years,my blood pressure has maintained and remains consistent. Aside from the lowering blood pressure component I have found it helpful in regulating my breath and meditating. It helps me unwind and the tone is extremely soothing. If I wake up in the middle of the night and have difficulty falling asleep, I merely attach the RESPeRATE device and am able to go back to sleep. What a benefit it has been for over all wellness. Consequently, I have recommended the RESPeRATE machine to a number of friends.

You are a Lifesaver! I was introduced to the RESPeRATE by my bio feedback Coach Tina Lerner in Santa Barbara California. I do not have high blood pressure however I struggle with anxiety. The RESPeRATE has Been a game changer in my overall health and well-being. Every morning I use the RESPeRATE before I begin my day. It has lowered my anxiety and stress. I cannot imagine starting my morning without using my RESPeRATE as it is my meditation. My auto immune disease Hashimoto’s is almost in remission due to my daily use of the resperate. I am so grateful and value this incredible game changer device.

I’ve been using Resperate for over ten years after hearing about it through an internet search and subsequent email from the company. Resperate has proven an effective natural way to control blood pressure, and is a great compliment to other good health habits such as exercise, diet and weight control. Resperate also reduces my anxiety levels. I find it meditative. Paramount is to commit to using it 4-5 days a week following the prompts, which become easy in a short time, to be sure its being used correctly for maximum benefit.

I have had high BP for over 23 years and as I aged, it seemed that my medications became less effective which resulted in having to take more and stronger pills. Fortunately for me, I decided that I would search the internet for an alternative to medication. It was during that search I found the RESPeRATE website. When RESPeRATE arrived I started to use the device twice a day every day. After 3 weeks, my BP had stabilized at 122/81 a number I had not seen in quite some time, even with medication. I highly recommend this product as it has made me healthier and lowered my blood pressure remarkably. RESPeRATE has been very cost effective. In fact since using RESPeRATE it has saved me a lot of money in prescription costs. Thank You RESPeRATE. Chuck Gregorios, VA USA

I am a 75 years old retired engineer. Since my retirement my blood pressure had gone up to 140/95 which was high enough for my doctor to prescribed me 40mg of Fosinopril to control the pressure. This was a few years of progress from 5 mg to 40 mg. The doctor told me the 40 mg of Fosinopril was maxed out. In 2016 I was desperately looking for to lower my blood pressure. I read an article from Reader's Digest Oct.2017 that talked about the FDA approved device called Reperate. I have been using it since Nov. 2017 and it works well since my blood pressure was check in Doctors office last November as 124/74. I am monitoring my blood pressure along with a daily 20 min Resperate usage. I have not completely stop the Fosinopril but taking 20 mg along with Resperate. My goal is to be reduced to 10 mg and eventually NONE medication with my steadfast usage of Resperate! I highly recommend you to purchase this device.

I am in my 60s and have been using RESPeRATE for at least the last decade. During most of this period, my blood pressure has been acceptable and I have had no need for blood pressure medication. In late 2016, I appeared to have an elevated pulse rate (there are differences of opinion what is a high rate). Because I was going on a long overseas trip, lasting months, I was ‘temporarily put on Atenelol blood pressure medication, just to be safe. However, I continued to use RESPeRATE on a daily basis, exercise regularly, eat sensibly, and strive for ‘peaceful living.’ I wanted to be weaned off medication. But since I travel a lot, I waited for a period where I would be at my home for a while so as to be under a doctor’s supervision. That period came and the doctor said I could go off the medication - which did not seem to be that effective anyway. My blood pressure and pulse has been at an acceptable level for several weeks now and I give RESPeRATE the credit.

My name is Isaak Lakhin. Every year I have a check up with my doctor. In 2012, when I visited my doctor for a regular check up, he told me that I had high blood pressure 160/85. I was very astonished because I felt good. He gave me a prescription for treatment. I had to take at minimum 2 sometimes 3 tablets daily. I asked him, “Maybe there is another choice?” Because I don’t like taking tablets for treatment. So I began taking every day - lizinopropill. But I kept searching the internet looking carefully for alternative treatments for high blood pressure. Finally I found Israel company- RESPeRATE Inc and ordered - RESPeRATE. I began to use RESPeRATE every day and check my high blood pressure before and after using. My high blood pressure went down- from 164-162 to-125-120!!! I had amazing results! Last two years I take it’s only one tablet daily Sometimes I don’t take tablets for high blood pressure because I have perfect high blood pressure. I think soon I stop taking medication because I filling perfect I use Resperate every day, sometimes 2 times daily, because I have often long working day and when I go to sleep I used Resperate to relieve fatigue, stress and fall asleep. Sometimes I fall asleep with RESPeRATE and take it off Resperate only in the morning. I sent two RESPeRTAES to Russia to my close friend and my cousin they have problems with high blood pressure. Now they are happy , because RESPeRATE has helped them. When I go on vacation and have a flight abroad to Europe I always take RESPeRATE with me. I used RESPeRATE when I have long flight. I want to express my great appreciation to Dr.B Gavish and E Gavish who invented RESPeRATE. In my personal opinion I am sure that RESPeRATE can help each person in the world. Because we live in stressful times RESPeRTAE use not only helps with lowering high blood pressure Resperate helps with fatigue, headaches, and helps me to sleep. Thanks again for the amazing RESPeRATE!! My big respect to your company.

A few years ago I was diagnosed with hypertension. In looking at some conservative measures to help reduce it, we found information on RESPERATE. After using it, I discovered the substantial benefits of relaxation and lowering my blood pressure from RESPERATE for just 20 minutes every evening. Even my Internist was impressed with the Results. In addition, I find using my RESPERATE every evening before bedtime assures me of a much better quality of sleep throughout the night.I am now using it nightly is as routine as brushing my teeth. Thank you RESPeRATE!

I was researching a natural way to lower my blood pressure after being diagnosed with severe hypertension. As a Holistic Health Coach, I had tried every natural remedy . I couldn’t find anything that worked until I found RESPeRATE. In the beginning I dismissed how effective the machine could be, but receiving the newsletters and reading about all the success stories, I promised myself to use the machine daily. Within a couple of months I had improvement in my blood pressure numbers and I was experiencing less stress. Now I see the value in using the machine daily in order to get results. Thanks RESPeRATE!

“I bought one of your RESPeRATE machines back in 2009, and still have it. I bought it because I was being deployed to Iraq and had to ensure that my blood pressure was within healthy limits or I would have to go on medication.
I was then 57 years old. Without medication, I got my blood pressure down to teenage levels and maintained it there. I took the machine with me to Iraq (was there 19 months), and then to Afghanistan (19 months), and kept my blood pressure down. I would highly recommend RESPeRATE to anyone.”

“I started to use RESPeRATE and it really worked for me. But then I put it away for 2 years. We had moved and my blood pressure went up. My new physician put me a blood pressure medication and it made me very sick. He tried a second and that made me sick as well. When they said they wanted to put me on a third, well that was it.
I got out my RESPeRATE and started using it twice daily. It helped to lower my blood pressure without side-effects. I recommend this device to friends and family. When I hear of someone struggling with blood pressure medication side effects, I always tell them about RESPeRATE.
I find my device not only helps me with my blood pressure but I also find it very relaxing. I started using it 30 minutes before bed and I am so relaxed afterward that I sleep very good. I really appreciate this device. I don’t believe that you always have to go the pharmacological route. I believe in the holistic approach to controlling my blood pressure. A good diet, exercise, and of course my RESPeRATE. Thank you RESPeRATE. ”

“ I am a Board Certified Music Therapist and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I have recommended Resperate usage to my clients and friends who deal with symptoms that might include, hypertension, stress, fatigue, and anxiety.
I generally do not hesitate to make this recommendation as I have personally used Resperate for over five years due to my own hypertension. I have had amazing results as noted by my family physician.
I discovered RESPeRATE in a magazine reference. I am impressed with the use of the guided tones, verbal cues, and effective music selections to make an overall pleasant therapeutic break from the pace of daily stressors. RESPeRATE is an amazing device. Thank you RESPeRATE. ”

Resperate was introduced to me by my husband when I was in the midst of my struggle with high blood pressure. My history was on the side of low blood pressure so this phenomenon was foreign to me. I had always been an active "high strung" person but never did I experience "high blood pressure". Meditation was frequently suggested to me but my thought was "why should I waste my time sitting quietly with zero accomplished?" In this newly discovered health condition, I was forced to assess my thoughts and take action which I did with resistance. My blood pressure is now under control and my sleep pattern has greatly improved. In fact I think at this point I think that Respirate can control one's blood pressure with as in my case minimum medication but there is no long term assistance to significantly improve one's sleep pattern with medication or any substance over the long term. I took medications galore even tried CBD as well as acupuncture but not one of these avenues was successful. The primary "cure" for my sleep was and is "Resperate". When I use this terminology however I am also indicating its use must be consistent and not sporadic. I am not a natural meditative but with the assistance of Resperate I have become a "Resperate Meditator". The melodious musical recordings resonate with my system at a success level. I encourage others with a sleep dysfunction to bite the bullet such as I have done and consistently and persistently put forth the effort to gain satisfaction with their sleep pattern via use of Resperate.

“ I’ve heard the advice for years — learn how to breathe more steadily and deeply, use your diaphragm, and reap rewards of calm, grounding, better circulation, and lower blood pressure. But, how? Breathwork on your own requires a focus and discipline that is very hard to really develop — there are so many distractions that get in the way.
Then I read an online review of RESPeRATE, and it made complete sense to me. I just needed a bit of extra, self-directed support in developing a practice — and I’m so glad to report that this machine provides exactly that. With its gentle tones and easy to use biofeedback system, I can quickly get my breathing into a parasympathetic, restorative state.
It’s become a critical part of my routine, and I’m grateful to have found it. It has helped with my blood pressure greatly. My breathing and my awareness of my breath have improved by leaps and bounds since I started using the device, and it has helped my energy and mental clarity, too. Thank you RESPeRATE! ”

“ This device has had an amazing impact on my life. Though I would never rule out Divine intervention, I had become resigned to using prescription medication to treat my high blood pressure for the rest of my life.
I had done everything in my own power to lower my blood pressure. I maintained a healthy weight, exercised, practiced healthy eating, regularly visited the chiropractor and got massage therapy but still saw no change.
“Suzanne, you hold your breath,” my massage therapist told me bluntly one day. “I’ve known you for a while, so I can tell you, ‘You hold your breath ‘!” She began to coach me in my breathing, making me aware of the value of breathing consciously.
Sometime after that I saw an advertisement for RESPeRATE in Parade Magazine. My reaction was, “Why not try it? If nothing else, it will provide some relaxation and stress relief.” Well, it did much more than that. ”

It all started with a stroke a number of years ago. This is when I started searching the internet so I could prevent having another one. During my search, I found the RESPeRATE device. I ordered it and began using it.
I was borderline hypertensive at the time and RESPeRATE brought my blood pressure down. It has managed to keep me from taking medication and I did not have the second stroke. I use my RESPeRATE 7 days a week.
The sessions are very relaxing and I find I sleep better at night. I have recommended RESPeRATE to family and friends. I even told my family doctor about it. He said it sounded like I was doing the right thing. Thank you so much, RESPeRATE team. ”
