Biofeedback
Biofeedback is a technique that teaches individuals to control certain physiological functions of their body - such as heart rate, muscle tension, breathing, or skin temperature - by providing real-time feedback from electronic monitoring devices. We use Heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback, which assesses variations in heartbeats.
How it works
-Sensors are attached to the body to measure specific bodily processes (e.g., brainwaves, heartbeat, muscle activity).
-The data is displayed on a screen or through sounds, allowing the person to see how their body is responding.
-With practice, individuals can learn to influence these processes - for example, slowing their breathing or relaxing muscles.
