Since 2012 Dr. Harman has wanted to purchase this Quantum Biofeedback device, while finishing up her last courses with Dr. Paul MD. She’s proud to announce she’s the 1st to offer this to her patients in and around her area, and in Indiana that she knows of. Quantum Biofeedback is an AMAZING device!!
What is Biofeedback? It’s an advanced professional neuro electro-physiological biofeedback device designed to aide in the reduction of stressor in the body and promotes muscle relaxation. A type of training program with the goal of teaching patients how to control involuntary physiological processes –both mental & physical.
The Biofeedback device Dr. Hartman is using, is it considered a medical device? Yes, It has been CE certified and registered throughout the European Union, United States, Australia, and South Africa as a Class 2A Medical instrument. Rigorous testing, double-blind studies and subsequent approval by TUV Germany is your guarantee of quality and efficacy, it’s the only device of its kind that has achieved this certification of assurance, providing the confidence that it will function as intended. **FIRST one in Howard Co. / Kokomo!!**
What professionals qualify? Acupunchurists, Chiropractors, Dentisits, Homeopaths, Medical and Non-Medical Doctors, Nutritionalists, Physical Therapists, Nurses, Vererinarians…just to name a few. Most popular type of biofeedback therapy performed by doctors is called “electroencephalographic neurofeedback.”
What does Biofeedback do? Attempts to identify and record subtle, information “stress potentials,” to help improve the communicational pathways of the electrical activity of the body, to increase the flow of electrical activity or unblock the flow of electrical activity in the human body, to reestablish electrical activity and improve over all electrical activity, to assists in achieving stress management, muscle relaxation and SO much more!!
How does the device work? It is based on the relationship between “Actions & reactions.” The basic principle of action is sending a square wave signal with amplitude of 5 Bolt, and the frequency to be applied is about 47.3 kHz. Reading the communicational exchanges through electroencephalography (EEG) of the human body, and sending and receiving information on a cellular level by frequencies and algorithms by the device; the basic principle is to then, measure these frequencies of the electrical activity of these different respective signals, to achieve a statistical evaluation based on the mathematical algorithm, and lastly to then be analyzed by the practitioner.
What has research shown about Biofeedback? It has been shown to improve overall health, performance, and physiological: thoughts, emotions, and behavior. Through the interchanging of information and signaling, this therapy has been shown to help reduce a wide range of symptoms, by identifying and changed certain mental activates and physical reactions. Improves the regulation of stress responses, acts as a natural “painkiller” if you will, by helping to naturally reduce and relieve stress in the body. A mind-body technique in which patients learn how to modify their physiology for improving physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health.
Does the Biofeedback device “Medically Diagnose”: NO, the machine DOES NOT medically diagnose, claim to treat any diseases, illness or medical conditions; only medical physicians can legally medically diagnose patients. It simply provides wellness information to be used as a guideline//roadmap for helping to achieve overall health and wellness and should be considered by a qualified and certified biofeedback practitioner in determining a course of action in helping to reach personal and wellness goals.
