|
Physiological Biofeedback |
Neuromuscular Cardiovascular Respiratory Thermal Biofeedback Neurofeedback or EEG |
Basically monitoring vital signs |
|
Primary Goals of Biofeedback |
Improve muscle function used to enhance volitional muscle activation Decrease pain |
|
|
Secondary Goals of Biofeedback |
Kinesthetic awareness of motion Decrease patient apprehensiveness about electrotherapy (E-stim) |
|
|
Indications for Biofeedback |
Muscle dysfunction Chronic Pain Apprehension about E-Stim Decreased movement control |
|
|
Electromyography (EMG) Biofeedback |
Measures motor unit action potential (MUAP) generated by an active muscle |
|
|
EMG Protocol for Faciliatory treatment |
For weak muscles
Electrodes record muscle activity, but do not activate muscles. Used to encourage motor unit recruitment |
|
|
EMG Protocol for Inhibitory Treatment |
For over-active or spastic muscles |
