Definitions

Respiras Breathing provides science-based breathing education and training services developed within the scope of consultative occupational therapy for health promotion and disease prevention. Our programs are designed to support functional health, respiratory efficiency, and nervous system regulation through self-care practices and skill development.

These services are intended for wellness, health promotion, and prevention. They are not a substitute for medical diagnosis, treatment, or therapy for specific diseases. Clients are encouraged to consult with their physician regarding any medical concerns. We collaborate with healthcare providers when appropriate to support continuity of care.

While our services are offered outside of traditional occupational therapy plan of care based on insurance, we are considered non-clinical and wellness-based. We do not prescribe medications, diagnose medical conditions, or offer treatment for acute or emergent medical issues.

Respiras Breathing is not intended to induce temporary altered conciousness, nor is it intended soley for stress relief, emotional release, or coping strategies. Our practice extends beyond relaxation or energy flow techniques often rooted in spiritual, meditative traditions. We do not recommend hyperventilation, deep breathing, fast-paced breathing,  breath holding patterns, altered nostril breathing, or cold water immersion. Instead, we provide evidence-based, and science-backed breathing retraining and re-calibration of the autonomic nervous system using biometrics to improve, enhance, and optimize physical and mental capacities for everyday living. We are dedicated to people that value wellness, health promotion, performance, success, and longevity.
