Physiological Stress

 
 

Stress Overload

You may experience ongoing stress, fatigue, tension, or reduced performance that doesn't fit into a diagnosis.

Declining Capacity

Your physical and mental capacity continue to decline. Your energy, resilience, and recovery no longer feels reliable.

Not Feeling "Normal"

You may haven been reassured that nothing is wrong, yet your body doesn't feel the way it used to. Symptoms linger and recovery feels incomplete.

Difficulty Breathing

You may experience breathlessness, air hunger, or chest tightness, even when oxygen levels and heart and lung evaluations appear normal. 

Low Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Levels

Your may feel air-hungry, lightheaded, disoriented,  anxious, or unusually fatigued.  Your body may feel in a constant state of alertness rather than ease. 

Neurological Symptoms

You may notice dizziness, restlessness, mental fatigue, or difficulty thinking clearly.  Your nervous system may feel on a state of vigilance, making true rest and recovery difficult.  

Sleep Problems

You may feel exhausted, yet struggle to fall asleep or stay asleep. Your body feels tense at night, your mind won't fully shut off, or you wake up feeling unrefreshed.

Low Energy

You may feel drained, even after sleeping or resting.  Everyday tasks require more effort, and your energy no longer feels reliable.

Low Oxygen

Your oxygen readings are low, yet no one can clearly explain why. You're left wondering whether the readings truly reflect what your body is experiencing.

Stress Overload Cycle

 

Chronic stress, illness, trauma, and daily habits can quietly disrupt your breathing and nervous system regulation, keeping you stuck in survival mode. This can create persistent symptoms and declining health, even when you are doing "everything right." Recovery begins when your physiology can support healing, rest, and stress adaptation.

Is Stress Encoded In Your Nervous System?
AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM STRESS

Is Stress Encoded In Your Nervous System?

The body suffers trauma, long-term strain, illness, or grief. These patterns can get encoded in your nervous system, with great potential to create catastrophic and disabling health problems like stroke and heart attack. This form of neuro-physiological stress requires a specific intervention to liberate the body from survival and move into regulation. We go deep to decode the hidden reactive stress code and rewire the physiology support performance.

Get Started

We recommend you start with a free phone consultation to see if Respiras is the right fit for you. We will answer your questions, and schedule your initial assessment if it's a good it. Call (800) 667-1798 to start the process.

Your evaluation is the first step in understanding how your breathing and nervous system are functioning. During the session, we assess your:

  • Breathing mechanics (rate, pattern, volume, posture).

  • CO2 levels and CO2 tolerance using real-time biometrics (capnography).

  • Cardiac autonomic nervous system response.

  • Physiological stress load using real-time biometrics (Respiratory Sinus Arrythmia).

  • Neurological, oculomotor, orthostatic, sensory-motor assessments are considered when appropriate and depending upon the unique or specific needs of the participant.

You will received immediate feedback and insights on how your breathing may be contributing to fatigue, anxiety, poor focus, pain syndromes, dizziness, pain, or emotional reactivity. We then, design a personalized breathing program based on your goals. Our process is data-based and science-backed. You will be able to perform precise measures and control your progress. Your session is non-invasive, relaxed, and highly informative. Many clients say it's their first time their symptoms made sense. You will be sitting in a comfortable chair that reclines by your own control and comfort. Our computer system will give you real-time feedback of your breathing patterns and how your breathing changes with mild and gentle stimuli.

Before your evaluation, please send pertinent information like lab test results, sleep studies, pulmonary function tests, and other relevant tests that can help us understand your situation better. Come in wearing comfortable clothes.

We strongly recommend you avoid caffeine consumption and salt intake one to hours before your evaluation. Please consider not wearing tight waistbands or restrictive tops. Rest assured your evaluation is predictable, gentle, and supportive. You will be in a safe and comfortable professional setting.

Quick Overview

Respiras is a clinical, science-based breathing therapy that helps:

  • Correct dysfunctional breathing patterns.
  • Restore oxygen-CO2 balance.
  • Improve nervous system regulation

Respiras is consultative occupational therapy, specializing in biometrics specific to capnographic and cardiovascular biofeedback. We bring innovation in respiratory training to help uncover stress patterns that are encoded in a person. Said paterns can go undetected, causing unexplained symptoms and performance deficits.

  • We believe in stress adaptation, resilience, and flexibility of body and mind.
  • We believe in supporting healing at the physiological level.
  • We believe in the power of neuroplasticity and the body's capacity to restore harmony and coherence to sustain life.

We are dedicated to those who are looking for holistic and preventative care.

 

Respiras is ideal for people struggling with persistent unexplained symptoms like fatigue, breathlessness, anxiety, sleep issues, brain fog, pain syndromes, emotional reactivity, and performance deficits.

We serve a specific area of healthcare related to disordered breathing and autonomic nervous system imbalance. Our clients have had extensive medical tests, scans, and they continue to present with symptoms resistant to treatment.

Respiras is also used proactively by those seeking wellness, natural therapies, holistic approach to health optimization, longevity, and performance.

Respiras helps you uncover and correct hidden stress patterns and poor breathing that causes health problems, activity limitation, and disability.

Our main objectives:

  • Correct breathing dysfunction.
  • Restore balance in the autonomic nervous system.
  • Educate the physiology to promote healing, recovery, and resilience.

Our clients have tried and failed other treatment methods. There is no explanation for their symptoms. They are usually marginalized for seeking alternative health-related services to help them solve their health concerns.

When assessing your needs, we address the following questions:

  1. Has your breathing gotten out of alignment, influenced by habits, stress, trauma, grief, or illness ?
  2. Have you been biologically "shell-shocked" in your nervous system, strong emotionally-charged experience(s) that defaulted you into persistent survival mode?
  3. Is your physiology turning against your health, with poor oxygen delivery, decreased blood flow, and ongoing inflammation?
  4. Have you adopted hidden stress pattern reactions that are sabotaging your health and performance?
  5. Is your sensory system out of calibration, misfiring and causing hidden stress and ongoing low-grade strain to your internal system?

We assess your physiology to:

  • Find out if your nervous system in stuck in survival mode (sympathetic overdrive), causing persistent health decline.
  • Pinpoint if your breathing is out of synchrony, causing system malfunction, unexplained symptoms, and poor health.
  • Assess how breathing and CO2 levels configure to daily activities, including rest, sleep, mobility, and exercise.
  • Measure your adaptive capacity, emotional response, and resilience level to stress reactions.
  • Assess your postural orthostatic tolerance, pertaining to vascular tone.
  • Assess your oculomotor integrity and how your eyes tracking affects your breathing patterns and vice-versa.
  • Assess how breathing dysfunction and stress in your nervous system affect existing chronic health conditions like POTS, cancer, Parkinson's, lupus, anxiety, panic attacks, chronic cough, intractable dizziness, COPD, rheumatoid arthritis, Lyme's, pain phenomena, sleep apnea, neuropathy, multiple sclerosis, sarcoidosis, asthma, hypertension, low vision, brain injuries, PTSD, and vascular dementia, and other conditions involving the autonomic nervous system.

We help you understand the reason how or why your:

  • Health is deteriorating rapidly for no reason.
  • Symptoms are not resolving despite the treatments or healthy efforts you have tried in the past.
  • Level of capacity has reduced, affecting your potential and resilience.

PHYSIOLOGICAL RECOVERY

Respiras gives tools to restore regulation without medication or temporary fixes.

We teach you how to regulate and optimize your physiology and enhance your healing, recovery, and performance without added drugs or side-effect.

We go straight to the root cause and fix it. We are not interested in emotions, trauma relief techniques, or rehashing past experiences. We take a physiological modeling to restore balance and improve performance:

  • Evaluate
  • Train
  • Correct

The goal is restore balance to your internal system and allow your body to find its own healing potential. This is done by removing stress patterns and replacing them with healthy patterns in the context of stress adaptation.

CO2 depletion, due to breathing behaviors, can cause symptoms and deficits that can be inexplicable. Said mode of breathing, focused on CO2 balance, is usually not addressed conventionally. Some symptoms of CO2 depletion caused by unstable breathing patterns include:

  • Fatigue
  • Chronic exhaustion
  • Anxiety
  • Pain syndromes
  • Muscle tension- neck, shoulders
  • Impaired memory
  • Poor concentration
  • Sleep disturbances
  • Difficulty swallowing
  • Seizure
  • Muscle spasm
  • Numbnes of hands & feet
  • Tingling of extremities
  • Coldness of extremities
  • Irritability- unfounded
  • Sleep disturbances
  • Dizziness, unsteadiness
  • Vision disturbances
  • Heart rhythm irregularities

We assess your breathing and stress levels using biometric tools, then create a customed program to retrain your breathing patterns and normalize CO2 levels.

Respiras is rooted in scicence, and it focuses on CO2 balance to improve and optimize the physiology.

Our practice does not endorse hyperventilation techniques, deep breathing exercises, altered nostril breathing, rapid forced breathing, breath-holding strategies, box breathing, or cold water immersion.
