Has anyone tried biofeedback for chronic pain management? https://www.carenity.us/forum/chronic-pain/living-with-chronic-pain/biofeedback-1855that's horrible I'm so sorry :(
@Blueboy Sorry you're dealing with all that. I'm not sure I know what biofeedback is, but it sounds interesting. What kind of treatment is that? Is it like meditation or mindfulness?
its a process where electronic monitoring of a normally automatic bodily function is used to train someone to acquire voluntary control of that function (such things as heart rate, muscle tension, blood flow, pain perception, and blood pressure). Biofeedback is a mind-body technique.
