Biofeedback

This technique provides a way of measuring changes in the body, such as skin temperature and muscle tension. It is possible to use the power of thought to alter some of these changes, and this becomes easier when you can see the results on a meter or screen. Since many physical changes are related to illness, it is sometimes possible to treat the disease as well. For example, some people have been able to ease the pain of migraine by imagining the head getting cooler. Biofeedback can also be effective for stress-related problems suck as asthma, insomnia, anxiety and high blood pressure.

Professional Consultation
After instructing you in a specific relaxation technique, such as focusing on your breath, the therapist shows you how to read the meters and how to recognize the changes in your nervous system. The objective is to help you to bring on a state of relaxation by yourself.
