Biofeedback is a relaxation technique that can correct emotional triggers such as stress and anger . Electrodes that track changes in pulse or skin temperature are used to help you relax. The goal of biofeedback is to teach you how to release tension and increase blood flow on your own without using the machine. You can obtain information about biofeedback at your local library or bookstore. Many clinics also offer training in biofeedback techniques.
Daily practice is important in achieving success with biofeedback.
