Biofeedback 42-Hour Didactic Education Program - BCIA Approved
Stress is America's number one health problem. Research shows that between 75% and 90% of visits to primary care physicians directly result from stress-related disorders. Most people are unaware of the adverse effects of stress, and some do not recognize stress in their lives. Biofeedback allows people to "see" how stress affects their overall well-being and healthily cope with stress.
Biofeedback is a treatment technique whereby people learn to improve and maintain their health using signals from their bodies. Noninvasive sensors are placed on the body to determine physiological changes stimulated through the fight-or-flight response. These measures include heart rate variability, skin temperature, skin conductance, respiration rate, muscle function, and brain activity. Therapists, who use biofeedback as a treatment tool, train people to alter brain activity, blood pressure, heart rate, and other body functions that clients often believe to be involuntary. Eventually, the client attains improved self-regulation without the aid of these devices.
The Center for Applied Psychophysiology (CAP) at East Carolina University offers biofeedback coursework to prepare professionals for private lab and supervision training--we may be able to provide lab access and mentorship for professionals in North Carolina (see Mentorship section below). Completing the coursework meets the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA) didactic education (42-hour) requirement and follows their Blueprint of Knowledge. Our goal is to offer you the knowledge and skills necessary to use biofeedback as a treatment intervention or performance enhancement technique.

Heart Rate Variability 16-Hour certificate Program - BCIA Approved
Stress is America's number one health problem. Research shows that between 75% and 90% of visits to primary care physicians directly result from stress-related disorders. Most people are unaware of the adverse effects of stress, and some do not recognize stress in their lives. Heart rate variability (HRV) allows people to "see" how stress affects their overall well-being and healthily cope with stress.
HRV Biofeedback is a treatment technique whereby people learn to improve and maintain their health using signals from their bodies. Noninvasive sensors are placed on the body to determine physiological changes stimulated through the fight-or-flight response. Therapists, who use HRV biofeedback as a treatment tool, train people to alter their heart rate and other body functions that clients believe to be involuntary. Eventually, the client attains improved self-regulation without the aid of these devices.
The Center for Applied Psychophysiology (CAP) at East Carolina University offers HRV coursework to prepare health care professionals to use it in a clinical setting or for non-clinical practices such as optimal performance training. The coursework meets the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA) Blueprint of Knowledge (16-hour) requirement. Our goal is to offer you the knowledge and skills necessary to use HRV biofeedback as a treatment intervention or performance enhancement technique.
