In approximately five minutes, the INDIGO Biofeedback System can

simultaneously detect and record information about the individual

client's stress reactions.

 

The INDIGO Biofeedback System reveals a client’s voltage, amperage,

resistance and other electrical calculations which may be important

indicators of wellness.

 

Different lifestyle factors which could be contributing to the body’s

overall stress load are reflected in the INDIGO Biofeedback System’s

Suppression Obstruction Cure (SOC) scores.

 

Information about reactions to over 11,000 subtle stress related

signatures and physiological parameters are also reported for client

education.

 

 How can the INDIGO Biofeedback  System help to improve my  health?

 

The INDIGO Biofeedback System functions in a multitude of ways, it can send signals to measure and record electro-physiological reactions to a multitude of items, re-educate certain muscles, nerves or organs or it can retrain areas of the body / mind to healthier patterns.

 

In other cases, it can invert certain signals which seem to be closely associated with a stress pattern.

The INDIGO Biofeedback System is by far the most comprehensive biofeedback system on the market today. Pre-designed stress reduction protocols may be used, or programs can be designed to meet the specific individual needs of each client. There are hundreds of different training programs that may used back-to-back in limitless combination’s to obtain optimum results.

 

The most important aspect of the INDIGO Biofeedback System is not just measuring the body electric, but measuring the changes.

 

The continued measuring and feedback of the system allows us to see the patient’s subtle reactions to words, ideas, items, or any stimuli is what makes biofeedback work. The body is a dynamic system that is never static; for example, there can never simply be one blood pressure, as it is changing dramatically every minute. The reactions or reactivity of a patient to a multitude of stimuli is an important tool in the INDIGO Biofeedback System’s ability to help clients retrain their reactions to even the subtle, non verbal and unconscious parameters of their physiology.

 

Other factors which contribute to the INDIGO Biofeedback System’s popularity amongst health professionals internationally are its cybernetic loop, and its ability to auto-focus for maximum training capacity. The cybernetic loop is a two-way communication between the device and the computer; it is constantly “checking in” with the client and measuring their progress. The auto-focus function works in conjunction with our cybernetic loop to allow practitioners to individualize their retraining protocols in order to meet highly detailed and specific needs of each client. This function also allows for what we refer to as“passive biofeedback”; the ability of the INDIGO Biofeedback System to help retrain a client’s physiological reactions at unconscious / autonomic levels.

 

The device can also, however, perform more active, conscious “classical biofeedback” or “neuro-feedback” type interventions.

 

Very few medical, hands on healing, or mental health modalities give the practitioner the ability to see exactly how well their clients are responding to the intervention, moment to moment. The INDIGO Biofeedback System actually calculates a percentage of change, giving a rectification value, upon completion of each stress reduction program. This is a huge benefit to practitioners.

 

While the program can allow for incredibly in-depth focusing, it is also exceptionally user-friendly. In most instances, when the practitioner opens a particular training panel the most beneficial biofeedback programs for that client are highlighted, based on that client’s reactions to the test of electro-physiological reactions (EPR). Selections can also be made using our auto-focus feature to determine which program in that panel would be most useful.

 

Upon beginning most training programs, the device first does a baseline assessment specific to that panel and then identifies what particular stress points have been revealed. For example, when working with the Electro-Oscillation Frequency Program the device will first reveal the strongest reactions to specific brainwave activities and patterns, before commencing the re-training process. In the spinal muscular re-education program, the stressors located in the spine are first highlighted in a stress assessment; the practitioner can then commence the re-training. This education process, unique to the INDIGO Biofeedback System, is also an incredible tool for practitioners and clients alike.

 

 A New Vision For Well Being

 

The INDIGO Biofeedback System brings A New Vision For Well Being to the global healthcare marketplace. Many clients who receive INDIGO Biofeedback sessions report that they can “feel” a gentle warmth or tingling sensation during the treatment. This sensation is a result of our 64x increased sensitivity, 12x faster rate of information transfer, 50x greater range of frequency output and 1.5x more amplitude capacity, as well as significant increases in accuracy, range and coherence of the signals delivered by the INDIGO Biofeedback System.

 

It’s capabilities are far advanced from any of its competitor devices; in fact, practitioners internationally are trading in other, older biofeedback devices to ensure the best possible outcomes for their clients, using the very best that the INDIGO Biofeedback System technology has to offer today.

 

The principles of modern medicine’s “hippocratic oath” (helping professionals should do no harm) are integrated within the INDIGO Biofeedback System operational design. Its built-in alarm will signal the practitioner when a client has reached maximum training capacity during a specific program.

 

The device itself will shut down if for any reason the client is not integrating the training in a safe, healthy and satisfactory way during that session.

 

 

 Fight or Flight Response

 

Stress can trigger the body’s response to perceived threat or danger, the fight or flight response. During this reaction, certain hormones like adrenalin and cortisol are released, speeding the heart rate, slowing digestion, shunting blood flow to major muscle groups, and changing various other autonomic nervous functions, giving the body a burst of energy and strength. Originally named for its ability to enable us to physically fight or run away when faced with danger, it’s now activated in situations where neither response is appropriate, like in traffic or during a stressful day at work.

 

When the perceived threat is gone, systems are designed to return to normal function via the relaxation response, but in times of chronic stress, this often doesn’t happen, causing damage to the body if stress is not reduced and managed.

 

 

 Common physiological changes resulting from        stress reactions include:

 

Increased Heart Rate, which can lead and / or contribute to heart conditions. Hormonal Fluctuations, which can lead and / or contribute to endocrine, reproductive, digestive disorders, obesity, diabetes and mental disorders.Constriction of muscles and blood vessels, can lead and / or contribute to pain, tension, circulatory issues, cardio-pulmonary issues and asthma. The suppression of non-essential life processes, which affects reproduction, higher executive brain function, digestion and immunity.

 

Many people think of stress only in terms of things like deadlines at work, family or relationship stress, financial pressures, traffic jams, or the death of a loved one perhaps. However, stress reactions also occur on the unconscious, cellular, subtle or energetic levels each time we are exposed to a toxin, pathogen or allergen; and every time our body experiences a nutritional deficiency or excess.

 

 

  What are the benefits of Biofeedback?

 

Everyone can benefit from biofeedback. Most people report biofeedback sessions to be relaxing, soothing and beneficial. Yucha and Montgomery (2008), in their article “Evidence Based Practice in Biofeedback and Neurofeedback” published in The Journal of Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback summarized the most current and complete medical research based on scientific rigor and consistency of outcome on biofeedback benefits and efficacy with the following health related issues.
