When looking for a biofeedback therapist
- Make sure the therapist has a primary or post graduate degree in a health related field.
- Look for someone qualified or licensed to practice in their geographic region and field of practice.
- Look for a therapist, who is, or is in the process of becoming BCIA certified (BCB, BCN, BCB-HRV, BCN-HRV or BC-PMD)
Another Aspect to be aware of:
Practitioners may focus on different areas of treatment/training depending on their license or speciality. Biofeedback is not just a single technique and its application will vary depending on the therapist's background. (Our clinician is a psychologist)
For Example,
For Example,
- A Psychologist may use biofeedback to increase a person’s awareness of the biopsychosocial nature of their issue (s) (their biology, their emotions, thoughts, exercise, even the way they hold themselves.) It helps them focus on how they need to change their psychology and what behaviours they need to modify.
- A Neurologist or Neuroscientist may specialize in the use the EEG modalities to help the client improve attention or concentration.
- A Physiotherapist may concentrate on aspects of biofeedback (eg. sEMG) that help speed up the rehabilitation process in an amputee, or somebody with an SCI.
- A Urologist may use sEMG feedback together with Kegel exercises to strengthen the pelvic floor and help clients with continence issues (particularly post-partum and stress).
