University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) biofeedback research
UCLA biofeedback research investigates how individuals can learn to control physiological functions—such as heart rate, muscle tension, and blood flow—using real-time feedback from their bodies. By monitoring these signals with specialized devices, participants can develop greater awareness and voluntary regulation of stress and pain responses. This research aims to improve treatments for conditions like anxiety, migraines, and chronic pain by empowering people to manage their symptoms through self-regulation techniques, ultimately promoting better health and resilience.
