BIOFEEDBACK
| The word "biofeedback"
describes since the late 1960s procedures being used to train experimental subjects to alter brain activity, blood pressure, heart rate, and other bodily functions that normally are not controlled voluntarily. Clinical biofeedback are nowadays widely used to treat an ever-lengthening list of conditions including: Types of pain like Migraine headaches, tension headaches,disorders of the digestive system, high blood pressure and low blood pressure, cardiac arrhythmias, epilepsy, paralysis and other movement disorders. Specialists who provide biofeedback, like psychiatrists and psychologists, dentists, internists, and physical therapists, most rely on many other additional techniques like relaxation exercise. Some learn to identify the circumstances that trigger their symptoms and most are encouraged to change their habits, and some are trained in special techniques for gaining such self-control. Feedback of physical responses such as skin temperature and muscle tension provides information to help patients recognize a relaxed state. The feedback signal may act as a kind of reward for reducing tension. |
