Chapter 39 Biofeedback
OVERVIEW.
Biofeedback is a treatment that uses a device that provides visual and auditory representations of physiologic events that are not normally perceived by the individual. With training, biofeedback permits the individual to voluntarily control responses. An example is the use of EMG signals to help patients initiate or control motor activity (e.g., activate muscle contraction or reduce muscle tension).1
