What does a session consist of/look like?

Step One: patient completes a nervous system evaluation to determine areas to target
Step Two: Let’s say a patient exhibits chronic low hand temperature throughout the evaluation, which consists of a series of activities and rests. This is a sign of chronic stress, as the body should raise hand temperature during rest, and lower it during activities.
Step Three: During biofeedback, the individual would have a thermometer attached to their finger. During the session, the patient will be able to see their current hand temperature projected on a screen, and can work on raising it through relaxation techniques, such as diaphragmatic breathing and mental imagery.

Overtime, learning this skill does a few things:

1) It helps the patient learn how to objectively relax, and remove themselves from a constant fight or flight response, improving nervous system health

2) It helps retrain the brain to adapt to stress appropriately. A chronically stressed brain triages function, and often keep blood out of the hands at all times, even when not stressed. By retraining the brain to rest, this helps restore proper autonomic function of the body, improving health.
Do you have constantly cold and clammy hands? A combination of neurologically-based chiropractic and biofeedback may be what you need!

As one learns to control their nervous system through biofeedback, the body is able to heal as it was designed.
