Biofeedback is defined as the technique of using equipment
to reveal internal physiological events in the form of visual and auditory
signals in order to teach patients to manipulate these otherwise involuntary or
unfelt events. Teaching patients to control a wide range of physiological
processes has profound effects in managing physical symptoms. For example,
biofeedback has been successful in the treatment of hypertension, migraine and
tension headaches. Scientific studies have provided evidence that objective
neurological signs and symptoms can be altered.
Dr. Fee will demonstrate the Open Focus technique, and will
show how biofeedback equipment is used.
