FREESPIRA’S MISSION IS TO PROVIDE A SAFE AND MEDICATION-FREE TREATMENT TO SUPPORT AMERICA’S VETERANS STRUGGLING WITH SYMPTOMS ASSOCIATED WITH PTSD AND PANIC DISORDER.
Freespira is an FDA-cleared, in-home treatment. It is an option that can be used along with talk therapy and medication, or on its own. Once authorized, Freespira ships your patient a sensor, a small breath sampling tube and a tablet with an app. The treatment corrects irregular breathing patterns, a physiologic factor of repeated anxiety attacks, and trains the body to reduce or eliminate them.

PTSD disrupts the daily lives of millions of Americans. Yet, traditional medication and counseling therapies often fall short for these sufferers – many of whom have begun to believe that there is no hope for relief or remission. Innovative drug-free approaches, like Freespira, that address the underlying physiological symptoms of PTSD provide a new solution – and new hope – to this problem.

Since completing Freespira, I am able to control my anger, and I am not as depressed anymore. I’ve learned to cope better and am functioning well. I enjoy family activities again, and my family enjoys being around me, too. Freespira gave me an outlet to control my symptoms, so I am able to function in everyday life.
