Welcome
RESPeRATE TO LOWER BLOOD PRESSURE
Congratulations on the purchase of RESPeRATE, the first medical
device clinically proven to lower blood pressure.
RESPeRATE provides you with a personalized guide to therapeutic
breathing: slow, effortless breathing with prolonged exhalation,
powerful enough to relax small blood vessels. This allows blood to
flow more freely and significantly lowers blood pressure within 3-4
weeks.
All you need to do is breathe...

Using RESPeRATE for the first time
1. Put the sensor belt around your upper abdomen
Wrap the belt around your upper abdomen, halfway between your
navel and chest, and buckle. Buckling the belt in front, as illustrated,
will be more convenient.

Make sure the label of the sensor is placed against your body and
that the sensor cable hangs downward. Slide the sensor slightly to
the left and right to ensure that it can move freely.
2. Put in the ear buds and lean back
It is important to make sure that your breathing is not being limited
in any way. Loosen restrictive clothing (tight pants, belt, etc) and
place the device in a comfortable position such as on your lap or on
a nearby table. It's important to avoid leaning forward which may
limit the breathing movement of the abdomen or chest.
