Overview
With guidance and practice, you can learn techniques to regulate these responses, manage symptoms, and feel more in control of your physical and emotional well-being.
How does biofeedback work?
During a session, gentle sensors measure signals such as muscle tension and peripheral temperature. You can see these responses on a screen in real time as you are taught techniques to regulate muscle tension, temperature, circulation, and nervous system activity. This immediate feedback helps you recognize how your body responds and discover which strategies work best for you to reduce symptoms.
Who can benefit?
Biofeedback may benefit individuals living with chronic pain, post-concussion symptoms, anxiety, or myofascial pain syndromes that can be influenced by the body's stress response. It can complement other treatments by helping you develop skills to manage discomfort, reduce tension, and improve your ability to regulate your nervous system. Over time, these skills can become tools you integrate into daily life to mitigate symptoms or response to symptoms.
What to expect
Each session is tailored to your needs and goals. With practice, you'll learn to recognize your body's signals and use specific techniques to influence your physical responses. Progress is monitored over time, with an emphasis on building practical skills you can use between sessions and beyond treatment to support pain management, stress reduction, and overall well-being.
