Learn the Language of Breath with Oxa, a New Smart Wearable for Breathing Analysis

The journey to better health starts with a single breath. Make that breath a good one with Oxa, launching. Oxa is a breath-monitoring smart wearable that teaches users how to breathe by providing real-time data and feedback about their breath, and the vital signs it affects. Oxa is the first wearable to unlock breathing potential, finally giving users total control over when to feel relaxed, energized, or focused, and even sleep better.

The relationship between breathing, relaxation and meditation is well established, but there lacks a tool to link the three and help users strengthen the connection between them. With Oxa, information is power. Learn the language of breath and optimize mental, emotional and physical well-being. Oxa works by combining a wearable shirt or bra, sensors and app to provide data and exercises to help users take control of their breathing and overall health.

“Oxa is the first-of-its-kind wearable to capture clinical-quality data about the depth and speed of breathing with precision,” said Vincent Martinez, CEO of Oxa. “That information combined with guided exercises via the Oxa app enables users to learn how to breathe to feel and live better.”

Healthcare wearable technology is a multibillion dollar industry worldwide. In the US, a quarter of the population already wears a smart wearable. Meditation, too, has seen tremendous growth in recent years with 500 million people practicing it on a daily basis.

There are a variety of wearable devices to monitor heart rate, physical activity, blood pressure and more. None are designed to precisely track breathing in the moment. All other wearables provide biofeedback data in averages over minutes, hours or even days. They also estimate metrics like heart rate variability and breathing rate. The result is an overwhelming amount of data without guidance on steps to take to improve wellness.

Oxa is the only wearable to provide biofeedback data on breathing rate and depth, heart rate variability and body temperature in real time. No averages or estimates. It works to measure breathing rate and volume by a process called respiratory inductance plethysmography. Electrocardiography reads heart rate and heart rate variability while infrared temperature sensors capture skin temperature. In the Oxa app, users can see how changes in their breathing affect other vital signs.

Taking things a step further, Oxa also provides an immersive, gamified, educational experience. More than just a tracker, the app provides audio and visual cues that guides users through exercises with their breath in real time. These elements adjust and change to reflect the wearer’s physiological data and breathing patterns. Personalized journeys help users master and control their breathing, taking charge of their own health.

Oxa is available in a dark navy shirt or bra. Every Oxa comes with the Oxa sensor that connects to the bra or shirt. The app is free to download on iOS and Android devices and is compatible with Strava, Google Fit and Apple health apps for displaying data.
