Train your nervous system like a muscle.
Your body broadcasts heart rate, breathing, muscle tension, and skin response every second. Biofeedback makes those signals visible — so you can learn to steer them. It's stress physiology you can practice and measure.
The tools in the room.
HRV Biofeedback
Heart rate variability training — the cornerstone modality. Builds autonomic flexibility and stress recovery, with strong evidence for anxiety, hypertension, and Long COVID.
Therapeutic Breathwork
Learn breathing patterns that shift you out of fight-or-flight, lower blood pressure, and calm the nervous system on demand.
Autogenic Training
Self-directed relaxation and self-hypnosis techniques studied for migraines, Raynaud's, IBS, and sleep.
Muscle & Temperature Feedback
EMG and thermal biofeedback for tension headaches, chronic muscle guarding, and circulation training.
Mindfulness & MBSR
Structured mindfulness training for attention, stress, and emotional regulation — practical, not mystical.
VR-Assisted Biofeedback
Guided visualization and safe exposure practice — from public speaking to flying — an area Dr. Simon actively explores.
The two-way street between mind and body.
A person's mental state changes their physiology; physiology changes their mental state. Biofeedback works that loop deliberately.
- Anxiety, panic, and chronic stress
- Depression and burnout (as a complement to professional mental health care)
- ADHD and attention/focus concerns
- Hypertension and cardiovascular reactivity
- IBS and stress-linked digestive symptoms
- Chronic pain, tension headaches, and migraines
- Long COVID autonomic dysregulation and POTS
- Sleep difficulty and nervous-system recovery
Biofeedback complements — it does not replace — professional mental health treatment. If you are in crisis, call or text 988.
Biofeedback questions.
Is biofeedback evidence-based?
Yes. HRV biofeedback has a substantial research base for anxiety, hypertension, and stress-related conditions, and biofeedback broadly is recognized by the NIH's mind-body medicine research. It's skills training, not a passive treatment — results come from practice.
How many sessions will I need?
Most protocols run a series of sessions to learn and reinforce skills, with home practice between visits. Dr. Simon will outline an expected course at your first session based on your goals.
Is it covered by insurance?
Coverage varies. Biofeedback is offered fee-for-service when not covered, and is credit-eligible under concierge membership. The clinic will help you understand costs up front.
Who teaches it?
Dr. Andrew Simon is a BCIA board-certified biofeedback practitioner who trained under Dr. Brad Lichtenstein, ND, BCB, and has used biofeedback clinically since 2011. He also mentors other clinicians in biofeedback.
