I used Resperate for several months with mixed results. Seemed to help - a little. But maybe not. Up and down. Who knows?

Then on e day I made a really powerful discovery. What I found may seem obvious, though I haven't seen any recommendations for it on the blog. This is what I discovered in a nutshell.

I was performing regular Resperate sessions four or five times a week. But the sessions were only 10 to 15 minutes long. One day just for the heck of it I decided to prolong each session to 25 minutes. I followed this regime for several weeks, with wonderful results. My BP, which had danced around the 160-170/85-95 level for decades, went down to 130/75 or thereabouts.

It's stayed there now for a while too, and I assume it will continue to do so as long as I keep using longer sessions. Perhaps others who are frustrated with so-so results from the machine may find this method solves their problem. It takes more time and effort, naturally, but the extended session trick has been a life saver, at least for me. Good luck.
