• What is Biofeedback?

Bioresonance Feedback Therapy (BRFT) or Biofeedback is a non-invasive therapy used in holistic or complementary medicine.

Based on the body’s biophysics, it does not interfere with conventional treatments and is suitable for both children and pregnant women. It’s founded on the idea that unhealthy cells or organs emit altered electromagnetic (EM) frequencies, the practitioner uses the QuexS biofeedback machine to allow the body’s cells to resume vibrating at their “natural frequency,” which purportedly treats the condition. The energy measurements are then used to diagnose disease or prevent diseases from forming. It is a treatment technique in which specialists are trained to improve their health by using conscious and subconscious signals with the help of a machine.

Psychologists also use it to help tense and anxious clients learn to relax. Specialists in many different fields use biofeedback to help their clients cope with pain. Both clients and practitioners use it to gauge and direct the progress of treatment. For clients, the biofeedback device allows them to “see” or “hear” activity inside their bodies. 

• The science behind Biofeedback

Clients who benefit from biofeedback are trained to relax and ultimately modify their behavior. Most scientists believe that relaxation is a key component in biofeedback treatment of many disorders, particularly those brought on or made worse by stress. Stressful events produce strong emotions, which arouse certain physical responses. Many responses are controlled by the sympathetic nervous system, most commonly known as the “flight or fight” response.

​The typical pattern of response to emergencies probably emerged during the time when all humans faced mostly physical threats. Although the “threats” we now live with are seldom physical, the body reacts as if they were: The pupils dilate to let in more light. Sweat pours out, reducing the chance of skin cuts. Blood vessels near the skin contract to reduce bleeding, while those in the brain and muscles dilate to increase the oxygen supply. The gastrointestinal tract, including the stomach and intestines, slows down to reduce the energy expensed in digestion. The heart beats faster, and blood pressure rises. 

​Many experts believe that these individual physical responses to stress can become habitual. When the body is repeatedly aroused, one or more functions may become permanently overactive. Actual damage to bodily tissues may eventually result. Biofeedback uses the help of a device to resolve the root cause.

Using drugs/medicine never deals with the cause of disease, it only treats the symptoms. This system's method deals first with the cause. It does unblock the blockage to flow the life & stimulating the mind to balance body.

• How does the treatment feel?

It might feel like nothing is happening during treatment; however, things are happening on the inside. The recovery reactions are a sign that the body is using the information received from the BRT.

Usually, it takes at least 3 – 6 sessions before patients start to feel signs of improvement.

• Where has Biofeedback been most effective?

Bioresonance therapy is used to diagnose and treat a number of health-related conditions. These include:

• Smoking cessation

A 2014 study compared bioresonance used for smoking cessation to a placebo.

It found that 77.2% of people in the bioresonance group quit smoking after one week after therapy versus 54.8% in the placebo group. The same study also found that after a year from treatment — which was only done once — 28.6% of people in the bioresonance group had stopped smoking, versus 16.1% in the placebo group.

• Stomach pain

Bioresonance has been used to treat stomach pain. One study found that this therapy was useful specifically for reducing stomach pain not associated with a specific diagnosis.

• Allergies and related conditions such as eczema and asthma

Using bioresonance to treat allergies and related conditions such as eczema and asthma is one of the most well-studied areas of bioresonance treatment. There have been a number of both controlled (using a placebo) and uncontrolled (observational) studies in this area.

Controlled studies are generally considered of a higher caliber than uncontrolled studies due to their ability to compare treatment to a placebo.

• Rheumatoid Arthritis

Some studies suggest that bioresonance might be effective in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by normalizing how antioxidants function within the body. These antioxidants help fight free radicals - polarized oxygen molecules as a result of ATP production - which may help lessen tissue damage in people with RA. No formalized studies on the effectiveness of bioresonance in treating RA have been undertaken.

• Fibromyalgia

A study compared the combination of bioresonance therapy, manual therapy, and point massage for treatment of fibromyalgia to manual therapy and point therapy without bioresonance therapy.

The results showed that while both groups saw improvement, 72% had improved muscular pain in the bioresonance group while only 37% had improved in the manual and point therapies combined.

Improvements in sleep issues and sensitivity to weather changes were also found.

• Burnout in athletes

Overtraining syndrome, also known as burnout, occurs when an athlete’s body doesn’t fully recover from training and competition. This can further lead to frequent injuries, fatigue, sleep disturbances and changes in resting heart rate.

One study found that bioresonance was helpful in overtraining syndrome by reducing heart rate and blood pressure within normal ranges as well as reducing stress on the sympathetic “fight or flight” nervous system.

• How is biofeedback being used today?

Clients usually are taught some form of relaxation exercise. Some learn to identify the circumstances that trigger their symptoms. They may also be taught how to avoid or cope with these stressful events. Most are encouraged to change their habits, and some are trained in special techniques for gaining such self-control.

Biofeedback cannot cure disease or by itself make a person healthy. It is a tool, one of many available to health care professionals and therapists. It reminds physicians that behavior, thoughts, and feelings profoundly influence physical health. Biofeedback helps both clients and doctors understand that they must work together as a team.

• Contraindications to Biofeedback?

It is recommended that you avoid this type of therapy if you are susceptible or suffer from epilepsy or are currently using any pacemaker or cardiac electrical stimulating device.

• The client’s responsibilities

Like modern allopathic medicine, biofeedback places some responsibility on the clients to consciously better themselves. They must examine their day-to-day lives to learn if they may be contributing to their own distress. They must recognize that they can, by their own efforts, remedy some physical ailments. They must commit themselves to practicing biofeedback or relaxation exercises every day. They must change bad habits, even ease up on some good ones. Most important, they must accept much of the responsibility for maintaining their own health.
