A thorough evaluation to identify muscles that may be holding tension and contributing to pain as well as a brief assessment of posture, mobility and strength.
Biofeedback includes applying surface electrodes to the skin to detect muscle tension and displaying this on a computer screen so you can see what your muscles are doing.
Treatment will include teaching you how to be aware of our tensing habits, exercises to interrupt these tension patterns, working with improving your posture and work habits, and instructing you how to incorporate changes in your daily life.
Treatment also includes relaxation techniques.
What results can you expect from your biofeedback treatment?
Our goal is to help clients self-manage their condition. Most biofeedback patients are seen 1 time per week for an average of 4-6 visits.
Does Insurance Pay for Biofeedback?
Physicians who prescribe biofeedback for their patients recognize the benefits and seek out those services. Most insurance plans recognize the benefits of biofeedback training and pay for those services. However some insurance plans do not include biofeedback as a covered service. You should contact your insurance company to verify that biofeedback, for your specific problem, is a covered benefit.
