RESPeRATE... a Proven Non-Drug Therapy to Lower Blood Pressure With No Side Effects.

  Neenah, WI, September 14, 2008 - As part of an ongoing effort to identify useful and safe products that can benefit caregivers and their loved ones, The CareGiver Partnership is now offering a new device which can lower blood pressure, without drugs. It is a safe and effective device, said Lynn Wilson, Founder of The CareGiver Partnership.

  We met with representatives of the company in the spring of 2008 to review RESPeRATE and the results of the clinical studies that have been conducted on it.  Following several months of evaluation within our company and with our Professional Advisory Panel, we were satisfied with the results of the clinical studies and are now pleased to offer RESPeRATE to caregivers and their loved ones.   A significant percentage of our customers told us they suffer with hypertension or high blood pressure and we believe this device can help them reduce their blood pressure.

  In researching this device, we found that RESPeRATE is manufactured by Intercure and has been proven to lower blood pressure in 10 clinical studies.  RESPeRATE is the only non-drug therapy that has been clinically proven over and over again to lower blood pressure. The clinical studies on RESPeRATE have been published in numerous peer-reviewed publications including The American Journal of Hypertension and the American Heart Association Hypertension Primer.   View the complete list of publications >>

  Those using RESPeRATE experienced a significant and sustained reduction in blood pressure within 3-4 weeks.  The studies compared those who used RESPeRATE for 15 minutes a day for 8 weeks to a "control" group, using a walkman with relaxing music, a home blood pressure monitor or both.

There were a total of 507 participants, average age of 58.

78% of participants were already taking blood pressure medications, a third of whom were taking 3 or more medications.

Average initial office blood pressure was 150/90 mmHg despite other therapies, diet, exercise and/or medications.

• RESPeRATE lowers high blood pressure by up to 36 points systolic and 20 points diastolic (top 10% reductions), as shown in seven seperate clinical trials with average reductions of 14/8 points.
• RESPeRATE users with uncontrolled blood pressure experienced a significant decrease in office blood pressure by up to 36 points systolic and 20 points diastolic (top 10% reductions) with average reduction of 14/8 mmHg points.
• The control treatment reduction was 9/4 mmHg, significantly less than with RESPeRATE.
• The results were similar for both men and women and medication status.
• The drop in office BP was directly related to the duration of slow breathing.  Those who used RESPeRATE more achieved better reductions.
• A clinically significant sustained reduction in blood pressure typically occurred in 3 to 4 weeks.
• Larger reductions in office blood pressure occured in older individuals and those with higher baseline blood pressure, whether taking antihypertensive medication or not.
• Home blood pressure measurements (for up to 6 months of use) and 24-hours ambulatory blood pressure monitoring have verified an all-day, lasting blood pressure lowering effect.
