Biofeedback

What is Biofeedback?

Biofeedback is a technique in which people are trained to improve their health by using signals from their own body. Biofeedback is applied with the use of a computerized system and software. It is an emerging technology that reads the body at biological speeds (the speed of a computer) providing results within minutes as opposed to days and weeks.

What happens during a Biofeedback Session?

During a Biofeedback session the client is relaxing comfortably in a recliner listening to soothing music. The client is connected to the Biofeedback device via a head harness, two ankle harnesses and two wrist harnesses. The Biofeedback Specialist enters the client information into the computer and calibrates the device to the client. A GSR program (Galvanic skin response) is performed energetically and the results are fed into the computer software. This provides the practitioner with information about the state of the energy and stress most prevalent in the body at that time. After gathering the GSR (Galvanic Skin Response) results, the data offers an understanding of your potential needs. It can reveal the specific stressors which could be the underlying issues surrounding your body’s ability to heal. It is then that the Biofeedback can be applied in order to help you correct and reduce stressors energetically.
