Biofeedback used to be thought as alternative therapy --something that might help but wasn't considered a fully legitimized medical treatment. NO MORE!

U.S. soldiers returning from war now use biofeedback to help deal with post-traumatic stress disorder. People suffering from chronic pain often find relief in biofeedback. Even athletes are using biofeedback to gain better control over their bodies. 

John Arena, president of the Association of Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback: "it used to be considered a very radical type of therapy, but what we have found is, as the years have gone by, it has become more and more mainstream.

Biofeedback is found to be incredibly useful in many different applications, such as chronic pain, lower back pain or some other painful problems. People that use biofeedback will learn to master techniques to ease the pain."
