Biofeedback
Biofeedback therapy is a technique that can be a valuable tool in psychiatric treatment. By measuring muscle activity, biofeedback therapy helps individuals gain control over physiological responses associated with conditions like anxiety, stress, and tension-related disorders.
Through real-time feedback, patients learn to consciously relax their muscles and reduce physiological symptoms. When combined with other treatments, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), biofeedback therapy can be an effective way to manage symptoms by improving awareness and control over bodily stress responses.
repetitive Transcranial
Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS)
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that has shown promise in treating 1 various psychiatric conditions. Particularly effective for major depressive disorder (MDD), anxiety, and certain forms of psychosis, rTMS involves applying magnetic fields to the prefrontal cortex to modulate neural activity. By targeting specific brain circuits, rTMS can help restore balance in individuals experiencing mood disorders or psychotic symptoms. Often considered for patients who haven’t responded well to traditional treatments like medication or psychotherapy, rTMS offers a relatively low-risk alternative. Its ability to relieve symptoms, stabilize mood, and improve quality of life has led to its increasing acceptance as an adjunctive or alternative treatment in mental health care.

Galvanic Skin Response (GSR)
Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) therapy, also known as electrodermal activity (EDA) monitoring, is a biofeedback technique used in psychiatric treatment. By measuring tiny changes in skin conductivity, GSR helps individuals become more aware of their stress and emotional responses.
This technique is particularly useful for treating conditions like anxiety disorders, PTSD, and depression. By monitoring GSR in real-time, both therapists and patients can track emotional responses and develop effective coping strategies. This allows for a more targeted and personalized approach to therapy, ultimately leading to improved mental health outcomes.
