Breathing ratio
The second parameter you can change is the breathing ratio of your Somnox 2. The breathing ratio is the ratio between
the inhalation and the exhalation of each breath. For example a ratio of 1:1 simply means that the inhalation and
exhalation are of equal duration. A ratio of 1:2 means that the exhalation is twice as long as the inhalation. A ratio of 1:3
means that the exhalation is three times as long as the inhalation.
Duration of the breathing program
Next, you can choose the ‘time’, in other words, the duration Somnox 2 will breathe. You can set any time from 5 to 120
minutes. When the program ends, Somnox 2 will turn o automatically.
Breathing exercises
In addition to your breathing programs, you can also select one of our pre-programmed breathing exercises. These are
breathing exercises specially designed for a specific goal (such as increasing relaxation, or alertness) and are based on
the latest scientific research on breathing and relaxation. Visit www.somnox.com/research for more information.
