  1. Biofeedback: New Vision for Pain Management | Types & Procedure Details - Specialty Care Clinics

  2. What is Biofeedback? We perform a lot of voluntary daily activities such as raising your hand to wave to a friend or lifting your knee to take another step. But, some functions such as heart rate, skin temperature, and blood pressure are controlled involuntarily by your nervous system. The “fight or flight” response includes the nervous system, including the sympathetic nervous system that is responsible for adrenaline secretion. The response is the result of severe stress that would be activated by a stressor like a pain flare-up. In response to the stress, the nervous system increases sympathetic activity, including increased heart rate, sweating, and muscular strength, which prepares you to face or avoid the pain. One technique that can help you gain more control over certain involuntary functions is known as biofeedback. This therapy helps in preventing or treating various medical conditions, including migraine headaches, chronic pain, incontinence, and high blood pressure. Biofeedback focuses on harnessing the power of your mind and making you aware of what's going on inside your body. This would help you can gain more control over your health and reduce pain.

  3. How Does Biofeedback Therapy Work? Biofeedback promotes relaxation that would relieve several conditions related to stress. The healthcare provider would attach electrodes to your skin and sensors to your fingers, during a biofeedback session. These electrodes and sensors send signals to a monitor, which displays a sound, flash of light, or image representing your heart and breathing rate, blood pressure, skin temperature, sweating, or muscle activity. Under stress it is observed that these functions change such as a change in heart rate, tightening of muscles, increase in blood pressure, sweating, and increased breathing. These stress responses are recorded on the monitor, and then get immediate feedback as you try to stop them.

  4. What are Different Types of Biofeedback? Different types of tests are used to monitor different body functions: Electromyogram (EMG): This test helps measure muscle activity and tension that helps in treating back pain, headaches, anxiety disorders, muscle retraining after injury, and incontinence. Thermal: This test helps measure skin temperature, which is used for headaches and Raynaud's disease. Electroencephalography (EEG): This test helps measure brain waves that may be used for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), epilepsy, and other seizure disorders. Electrodermal activity (EDA): This test provides details about sweating that is helpful for pain and anxiety Heart rate variability (HRA): This test helps measure heart rate that may be used for anxiety, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and irregular heartbeat.
