Biofeedback, Headache & Stress Management

PPA is pleased to offer Biofeedback as a treatment for a variety of issues including headache management and prevention. Biofeedback is a specialty that involves understanding and modifying the relationship between behavior and physiological functions. Clients learn to identify the ways in which in which their bodies are physically responding to stress and what they can do to reduce symptoms.

Headaches, especially migraine headaches, can be debilitating and interfere with one’s life and ability to function. Medications are often effective in the treatment of headaches, as are non-medication approaches which are often used together to provide the greatest benefit. WMDA offers non-medication approaches to treating headaches including Biofeedback and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Our therapists help educate clients about headaches, effective treatments for headaches, and provide up-to-date research-based techniques to manage and prevent headaches.

Because stress is the most common headache trigger, learning to manage one’s stress response is a key intervention for preventing headaches. Therapists at PPA employ Biofeedback and CBT techniques to aid clients in changing their response to stress, including changing stress-inducing thought patterns and relaxation techniques.

Research studies consistently show that the use of Biofeedback and CBT techniques results in a significant reduction in migraine headaches. Biofeedback and stress management techniques are also effective for a variety of other needs such as dealing with anger, work performance, and general well-being.
