Then there was the added problem of trying...

We are excited to announce our patent for Heart Rate Variability (HRV) Therapy has been approved! This patent covers the use of Audio-Visual Entrainment and visual cues to enhance breathing using the Spectrum Eyeset in conjunction with the DAVID Breathe PC app for one of the most effective methods of heart rate variability training available today.               Heart rate variability (HRV) is the variation in the time between each heartbeat....
