Psychosomatics and Psychopathology “Autonomic Imbalance and Decreased Parasympathetic Tone in particular may be the final common pathway linking negative affective states and dispositions, including the indirect effects via poor lifestyles, to numerous diseases and conditions as well as increased mortality, and it may also be implicated in psychopathological conditions”. Thayer & Brosschot, 2005, p. 1053

What is Biofeedback? BASIC: Biofeedback is a technique that enables an individual to learn how to change maladaptive physiological activity and correct dysfunctional Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) activity SCIENTIFIC: Biofeedback instruments are used to “feed back” information about physiological processes, assisting the individual to increase awareness of these processes and to gain voluntary control over body and mind. HOLISTIC: Biofeedback is based on the recognition that changes in the mind and emotions affect the body, and changes in the body influence the mind and emotions. RESILIENCE: Biofeedback emphasizes training individuals to self-regulate, gain awareness, increase control over their bodies, brains, and nervous systems, and improve flexibility in physiologic responding.
