Biofeedback

Service Description

Biofeedback is a complementary and alternative medicine technique that enables an individual to learn to change certain physiological activities for the purpose of improving health. With biofeedback, the subject is connected to the biofeedback device with sensors to measure and receive information (feedback) about the body (bio). The biofeedback sensors use mild electrical impulses that measure skin temperature known as Electro Dermal Response (EDR), which teaches the individual to make subtle bodily changes, such as relaxing certain muscles, to achieve desired results (reducing pain). Biofeedback is often used as a relaxation technique. The instrument utilized in my training sessions is called the EDUCTOR biofeedback system. It requires the client to be connected to the system via a headband, ankle and wrist straps to measure EDR. The scope of my practice through the use of this biofeedback system includes stress reduction training programs for relaxation training, pain management, muscle re-education and brainwave training. Although this training is expected to produce beneficial results, such results cannot be guaranteed. During a biofeedback session, some clients may feel an occasional gentle tingle, however, most clients do not feel this. Most clients leave feeling relaxed and refreshed!
