Please, tell me what biofeedback is? My husband has a problem with high blood pressure as respond on stress. Sometimes during the night he had kind of "seizures" which I believe are also triggered by stress. I was thinking that this might help him, so I need some info about it. Thank you.

Everyone learns as they go through life different ways of responding to events that they are exposed to, like for example your husband who develops high blood pressure as a response to stress. Biofeedback is used to improve and restore the body's normal responses after injury and to assist people with disabilities. It is a way of learning to change the body's responses in a way that improves health using electronic instruments that measure and indicate various things that are happening in the body.
