Hypothalamic Pituitary Adrenal System (HPA)

Respiration is thought to mediate stress-related symptoms and is observed via breathing patterns, measured end-tidal carbon dioxide, and symptom clusters .  The HPA axis is a systemic energy producer and anti-inflammatory system.  It is a relatively slow response, but chronic activation can have devastating effects on the body. The HPA response is governed by the release of hormones.  Basic biofeedback provides that person with information about their physiological state such as breathing rate, heart rate, skin conductivity, muscle tension and end-tidal carbon dioxide.  This information can then be used to influence to master optimal physiological stated. After these states are master a patient can move into heart rate variability biofeedback.
