Our success lies in combining modern medicine with holistic practices focusing on clinical outcomes
Blood pressure
Two recent large meta-analyses found yoga to produce significant reductions in diastolic blood pressure. Most research studies in this area reported that yoga and other forms of stress management effectively reduced blood pressure in both normotensive and hypertensive populations.
Atrial Fibrillation
Heart rate and heart rate variability: Heart rate variability is an independent predictor of mortality in patients and healthy individuals. Exercise therapy combined with stress management improve HRV in myocardial infarction, chronic heart failure and revascularization by increasing vagal tona and decreasing sympathetic activity. The improvement of HRV would indicate a reduced risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
Serum Lipid Profile
Relative to usual care or no intervention, our method alongside a comprehensive nutritional support and medical treatment has shown to improve levels of HDL, VLDL and triglycerides
Body weight
Our method has been shown to reduce wait circumference and waist-hip ratio, an important cardiovascular risk factor.
Blood sugar levels: Our small pilot of 21 patients conducting the 10 weeks-Cardiac Rehabilitation program showed improved levels of HbA1c and insulin resistance. This was closely monitored by consultant cardiologist and nutritional therapists.
Stress and anxiety levels
Rhythmia Breath has a 99% rate of success in reducing stress, anxiety, as well as improving mood, self-esteem and self-care strategies.
Lung capacity
Methods using yoga, stress management and breathing exercises have been shown to positively improve lung function and exercise capacity. The scientific evidence supports methods like Rhythmia Breath to be used as an adjunct therapy for pulmonary and cardiac rehabilitation.
Sense of well-being and self-care
Rhythmia Breath program and method has proven over the years to have positive effects on several physical and psychosocial aspects such as functional wellbeing, emotional and social function. Rhythmia Breath believes that self-care is a vital part of maintaining good health and preventing disease. Our philosophy around self-care is that it should incorporate behaviours that help you nourish, replenish and fulfil your life.
