Description
Clinical researches on biofeedback in Japan have been mainly reported at the meetings of Japanese Society of Biofeedback Research(JSBR) and Japanese Society of Psychosomatic Medicine (JSPM). The former society, JSBR was launched as a small workshop in 1973. The number of researchers and reports on biofeedback increased rapidly in first decade has now turned flat. Looking back at the history, some dominant research groups should be highlighted, such as departments of psychosomatic medicine of Tokyo University, Toho University, and Kyusyu University. Biofeedback is frequently used to control muscle activity, brood pressure, and skin temperature. Above all, clinical effectiveness seemed to be established by the biofeedback treatment using electromyography. The causes of biofeedback providers reaching a plateau recently and application possibilities in the future were discussed.
