It accomplishes this by promoting optimal respiration, optimal blood flow, and its outcome, autonomic nervous system balance. Coherent Breathing generates a phenomenon known as the respiratory arterial pressure wave which rises with exhalation and falls with inhalation. This wave is an outcome of the “thoracic pump” which, in combination with autonomic action, functions to draw blood from the extremities via the right side of the heart during inhalation and impel blood to the extremities via the left side of the heart during exhalation. Coherent Breathing has been demonstrated to affect many biometrics include including heart rate, blood pressure, brainwaves, muscle tension, skin conductivity, and hand temperature, as well as overall “bioenergetic potential” of the human organism. Often, dramatic changes in biometrics are seen within a single therapeutic session. Coherent Breathing is presently used by a growing number of individuals and integrative health care professionals in >8 nations.
