You might already be familiar with the vital signs that a medical specialist takes at the beginning of your visits. Vital signs are measurements of the body’s most basic functions, and the following five main vital signs are routinely monitored:
- body temperature
- heart rate (the rate of your heartbeat)
- respiratory rate (rate of breathing)
- blood pressure
- oxygen saturation (the amount of oxygen circulating in your blood)
Vital signs are useful in detecting or monitoring health issues and alerting medical professionals to potential concerns.
Overall, when your body is within physiological norms/recommendations, you are considered a generally healthy individual. And of course, the more we know the better.
In addition to typical vital sign measurements, our office is excited to offer a unique Biofeedback monitoring of your body’s physiological functions. Most likely, this type of evaluation and measurement has never been taken into consideration in any of your prior treatments.
By using state-of-the-art computerized Biofeedback equipment, you can observe the following:
- Stress level of your nervous system (based on the condition of your skin)
- Hand temperature (totally different than body temperature!)
- Physical muscle tension
- Breathing patterns
- Mental, physical and emotional balance
You will learn how deviations from the parameters of these physiological norms may possibly be affecting your symptoms or even causing them.
Biofeedback training will be made available to you to take steps in resolving your issues.
Biofeedback will also be offered as a complementary part of your treatment if you suffer from any of the following:
chronic pain * stress * breathing difficulties * sleep problems * anxiety and panic attacks
excessive muscle tension * difficulties to relax * high blood pressure * …… and other problems
