AB Biofeedback  is  a  behavioral  therapy  method  that  teaches  a  patient  to  gain  greater  awareness  and  control  over  physiologic  functions,  including  some  not  normally  under  conscious  control.  This  is  achieved  by  using  technology  that  presents  to  the  patient  in  visual  or  auditory  form  the  level  of  activity  of  a  physiologic  parameter,  such  as  muscle  tension,  skin  temperature,  sweat  gland  activity,  respiratory  muscle  activity,  PCO2,  heart  rate  variability,  or  brain  wave  pattern.
