We Listen

The patient who presents with unexplained symptoms defaults into a grey area that can cause frustration despair, depression, and hopelessness.

Understanding

Complex cases are typically difficult to manage conventionally because no source of organic pathology is found in the patient. Typically, little to no attention is placed to breathing behaviors and stress shock to the central nervous system. These patients are often misunderstood and  marginalized because of the lack of awareness and knowledge.

Roberto understands this dilemma and has dedicated his career to solving complex cases where disordered breathing and stress overload are identified and corrected permanently.

Validation

These patients are often marginalized or misunderstood due to the lack of medical evidence to support their symptoms and deficits. Roberto has dedicated his career to acknowledging and supporting these group of patients, giving them hope and favorable results.

Who We Are 

CONSULTING | TRAINING | EDUCATION

Respiras Pulmonary-Neurological occupational therapy practice dedicated to dysfunctional breathing as well as the stress overload in the central nervous system.  

We detect and correct unstable breathing with low CO2, causing symptoms and deficits in the body. We also correct the insidious stress overload in the autonomic nervous system, autonomic instability, causing system malfunction capable to generate neurologic, psychiatric, reproductive, gastrointestinal, and cardiovascular problems.

In the field of medicine and conventional rehabilitation, breathing habits and stress shock (biological shock) are usually not considered to be part of the evaluation or plan of care.  We specialize specifically in said areas, and our prime target is to pinpoint how the breathing-stress equation is configured in each patient. We strategically use biometrics to help restore balance in the physiology and improve symptom severity. We liberate the patient from imperceptible breathing and stress habits that have great potential to cause disease and activity limitation.
