Prevention
Stress is not Always Evident
Stress in connection to breathing is not always perceived. The quality of our breathing is typically not in question. Stress usually gives us warning signs such as pain, sleep problems, fatigue, weakness, mental decline, frequent illness, and unexplained neurological symptoms. The lack of adaptation to stress will challenge every organ and system in the body. Respiras Breathing gives you a superior advantage in self-awareness and stress adaptation for promotion and disease prevention.
Awareness
Unexplained Symptoms?
You may have visited many specialists, have done extensive testing, underwent invasive procedures, and you still have unexplained symptoms. Medical research for over 100 years has demonstrated that carbon dioxide balance is critical for normal body functions. When all necessary medical test results reveal negative, disturbed breathing leading to CO2 depletion (hypocapnia) can cause physiological stress (Xie & Moir, 2004), and it can challenge the way you function physically, cognitively, emotionally, and spiritually. Common symptoms of disordered breathing include pain syndromes, chronic fatigue, weakness, headaches, migraines, anxiety, depression, panic attacks, impairment of concentration, memory deficits, ADHD, heart rhythm irregularities, sleep disturbances, unsteadiness, faintness, seizures, irritability, unfounded fear, and loss of confidence. The literature suggests that low CO2 (hypocapnia) can play a role in the development of systemic diseases (Laffey & Kavanaugh, 2002).

Partnership
Better Chemistry Through Breathing
Respiratory training for CO2 balance gives you energy, relaxation, focus, restorative sleep, endurance, and ease in your physiology for better pain management. Adaptive breathing is the most natural way to reduce stress, improve performance, and enhance the body's healing potential. It has no risk of creating dependence or any other long-term side effects. We have a proven science-based system to help you create success in your health and quality of life.

John L. Kucera, MD
Integrative Medicine
“Respiras Breathing helps to re-establish normal physiology in a way that cannot be done with medications, psychotherapy, or even nutritional supplements. It is a critical and almost completely untapped source of treatment that merits further recognition and application to the medical issues that face us in the twenty-first century.”
Michael R. Menachof, MD, FACS
Board Certified ENT
“When medical conditions have been adequately treated or ruled out, and inexplicable symptoms persist, a pattern of disordered habitual breathing should be questioned. Respiras' conservative approach that is science-based and patient-centered deserves praise and recognition in our ever-evolving medical community."
Robert Corr, DDS, MS
Endodontist
"The accumulation of maladaptive responses to stress can result in an exaggeration of inflammation with intensely painful results. In my experience this type of pain can closely mimic that of a dental infection. I feel that I now have a resource in Respiras to help find solutions for such patients."
Craig Sommer, DDS
Holistic Dentistry
“Respiras Breathing addresses the acquired breathing habits that are counterproductive to our physiology. Respiras is an effective and completely safe way to neutralize the intrusive effects of stress. I recommend to use of this therapy to patients who suffer from pain syndromes and other stress-related disorders.”

I am so thankful for Dr. Corr’s willingness to think outside the box, and to Respiras Breathing for giving me hope and more importantly RESULTS!” Respiras Breathing is like no other program in the world.
