Sometimes it can feel like the human body is a puzzle. Finding the answers to give us better physical and mental health can be confusing and overwhelming. You visit multiple doctors from multiple backgrounds, only to have their advice contradict one another and leave you more frustrated and confused.
Thankfully, there are some holistic approaches to health that can improve nearly every aspect of your well-being. One of these techniques – known as biofeedback – is not only holistic and versatile but also complementary to other approaches to wellness.
What is Biofeedback?
Biofeedback is a way of learning about your body’s responses to stress and other outside influences and learning to improve those responses. It involves attaching painless electrical pads to the body. These pads transmit information from your body to machinery that your provider will monitor and analyze.
This information can be used to evaluate many of your body’s processes. This includes but is not limited to your breathing, heart rate, muscular responses, and more. These processes can indicate issues that you might not realize you are experiencing – and help you address them.
What Does Biofeedback Help With?
Why should you ask your provider about biofeedback in New York? Because the therapy can offer insight into your body’s response to things like stress, and how to better address them.
Some of the ways biofeedback can benefit patients include:
• Learning more about your own body.
• Learning to better manage stress.
• Great for addressing issues that medicine cannot, or during times when medication cannot be used, such as pregnancy.
• May help medications and other therapies work better.
• May help reduce the need for medications or eliminate it altogether.
• May help avoid surgery and other, more invasive approaches.
If you are interested in any of these or the many other potential benefits of biofeedback, speak to your provider about getting started today!
