BioRegulation Therapy (BRT)
Michael G Holler Counseling Services is now offering body biofeedback, also known as BioRegulation Therapy, or BRT. It took more than a decade of investigating and testing various modalities before I settled on this particular technology. Clients regularly report improvement in chronic pain, symptoms of immune system disorders such as chronic fatigue or Lyme disease, and anxiety,
What is body biofeedback?
Body biofeedback is a form of biofeedback, a body balancing method whereby a computer reads the electrical impulses (frequencies) being emitted by the cells in your body. It filters out the disharmonic “unhealthy” vibrations that interfere with optimal cell communication (and thus interfere with their optimal functioning). It amplifies the “healthy” harmonic frequencies and sends them back to the cells. These harmonic frequencies “invigorate” the cells and encourage them to function the way they are supposed to. It's a little like playing a guitar that slightly out of tune. Well you can play it, it doesn't function as well as it should. However, once you take the time to tune it, its performance is a whole lot better.
Once the cells are doing their jobs better, the nervous system calms down, and pain or other disruptive signals, which have become magnified over time, diminish. Pain is thought to occur when excessive pain signals get sent to the brain. In a way, it is thought that too much of the brain is recruited to pay attention to the pain. Experts speculate that body biofeedback helps the nervous system re-organize its signaling to help diminish the cycle of pain.
A primary component of biofeedback is that anything that can be measured can be changed. Organ systems have tiny, complex, bioelectrical signals, and each one has its own unique, signature pattern.
Because the cells within each organ system tend to “talk” more with each other than with other systems, each organ system has slightly different characteristics that promote communication among its own cells. For instance, kidney cells communicate better with other kidney cells than they do with liver cells. These unique signals can be measured with sophisticated scientific tools. Body biofeedback provides feedback to the body about those bioelectrical signals. The body’s nervous system then uses that feedback to reorganize itself and improve its own intercellular communication. With the feedback, the cells better align themselves within the organ system and entire body.
All you have to do is recline on a comfortable chair or table in our pleasantly decorated treatment room. And relax. Our computer does the rest. Most people feel nothing during their treatment.
How body biofeedback came to be offered
Recently I learned of body biofeedback being used in Europe with great success. I was cautiously optimistic about its potential for my practice. However, I’ve built a solid reputation for providing dependable, effective non-drug therapies such as BioRegulation Therapy that really do help patients, especially those who haven’t responded to conventional treatments.
To be incorporated into my sophisticated toolbox, BioRegulation had to meet very stringent criteria:
1. Does it work consistently, beyond a doubt, with complicated, chronic, treatment-resistant cases?
2. Do results sustain over time?
What happens in a body biofeedback session?
Five to seven small sensors are placed on several places on the body. Their job is to measure core bioelectrical signals and provide feedback to the body. You feel nothing during a session because the device simply provides feedback of the body’s own systems.
Session length is dependent on the problem being treated. Sessions generally last about half an hour to an hour.
