More About Biofeedback Training

The term “biofeedback therapy” is the popular name for “psychophysiological self-regulation training.” It is a safe, effective, noninvasive therapeutic training technology that uses state-of-the-art biomedical sensing instruments to teach you how to take conscious control of many of your own internal processes.

Like others before you, you may find how easy it is for you to consciously change and control this very subtle internal physiological activity in ways that you may have never dreamed possible. With you in control, you may be able to reduce or end reliance on medications or other forms of intervention to relieve your symptoms and restore good health.

Although we all experience the effects these internal processes can have on us when things go wrong (such as pain, muscle tension, anxiety, depression or other problems), the hidden biochemical activities that drive them are not detectable by our ordinary conscious awareness.

With modern biomedical electronics and sophisticated computer programs, the therapists at Austin Biofeedback and EEG Neurofeedback Center make useful information about your hidden biochemical activities available to you, in easy to understand forms. Working with “real-time feedback" from your own body’s internal activities, our therapists can coach and teach you how to take control of these subtle processes. With biofeedback, you can learn to change what is happening inside you on your own, without drugs or other invasive procedures. The effects can be astonishing.

Like training wheels on a bicycle, as you learn new control skills, the feedback is removed and you use your new abilities out in the real world without assistance. With effective training, these healthy new abilities become habits and are integrated into your everyday life.

Modern biofeedback therapy at Austin Biofeedback and EEG Neurofeedback Center is a remarkable, high-tech health care choice. Biofeedback therapy can provide effective help for many physical, emotional, cognitive, developmental, and performance concerns. In the face of these problems we often feel helpless, that we’ve lost control; that our only alternatives are less than desirable and out of our hands. Biofeedback is the one health care alternative that can give you back control over your own health and well-being.

Working in close coordination with your physician, biofeedback training at Austin Biofeedback Center may be a powerful alternative to medication and drugs for a long list of health conditions. Biofeedback is pain-free and non-invasive. It is effective for adults and children.
