Joel Weinstein, MD,FACS, CA

As a General Surgeon, I am writing this testimonial as both a physician and as a patient. I am 57 years old, and was diagnosed with hypertension about five years ago. At that time my blood pressure(BP) was 160/90. My doctor started me on a diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide) to lower my blood pressure. On this medication, my BP settled down to 130/90.

Six months ago I started using Resperate. I was initially doing this for 15min/day four to five times per week. After one month, my blood pressure was 125/85. I reduced my medication to half a dose and continued doing my Resperate sessions. After another month, my blood pressure was down to 116/78. At this point, I stopped my BP medication and continued with my Resperate sessions which I was now doing six to seven times per week. After another 35 days my BP was 124/84 off any medication.

Naturally, I was very happy to be able to control my BP without medication, but I was also noticing that I was feeling less stress and sleeping better. I increased my sessions to 20min/day six to seven times per week which is my current routine(The main reason why I increased the frequency and duration of my sessions, was because I was noticing a marked improvement in stress reduction. Something that is very important in my line of work).

My BP has continued to improve to the point were my last reading was 107/70 with a pulse of 64 bpm. I have been recommending Resperate to friends and family. I do not treat patients with hypertension, however I have shared my experience with several of the practitioners that I work with to encourage them to consider using this for their patients.

I also believe that Resperate would benefit athletes and performers as a means to overcome performance anxiety. It would be very useful for Physicians in Training to help them cope with the stress of learning how to deal with life and death situations.

Treating essential hypertension


Topic - Taking BP Meds


Q: The treatment of "Essential" Hypertension by doctors appears to be a shotgun prescription of various drugs, until one of them works to lower blood pressure. A neighbor of mine was given medication to take, and when he got up at night, he would pass out (presumably, from an extremely low blood pressure). Are doctors unaware of this type of consequence? And why can't they take the time to figure out what's really causing the hypertension? And treat that, instead of prescribing inappropriate medications? A: Most people suffer from essential hypertension. It is called essential hypertension because no...

Breathing, blood pressure and blogging


Topic - Breathing, blood pressure and blogging


Who would think that breathing slowly would reduce blood pressure? On the surface it seems unconnected with the phenomena in question. However, if one was to dig deeper and research the subject, one finds lots of reasons to think that it might. Of course, the ultimate test for a scientist is to actually try it. More than just try it. In the scientific study we have to control for random factors, control for biases, control for Hawthorne effect, placebo effect, and other experimental risks. But the beginning of science is not in the controlled,...
