Biofeedback System Has Now Evolved
People have been utilizing and hearing about biofeedback for over forty years. However, until recently, many people were not able to afford this type of alternative therapy because the cost of hiring a biofeedback therapist, with their expensive equipment, was just out of reach. But, in the last several years, an new type of biofeedback system has been introduced by a few companies, which has provided access at a dramatically reduced cost, making this type of therapy available to a much broader range of people.
There are a number of companies now that have taken advantage of the recent developments in technology to provide biofeedback machines at a much reduced cost and some might be surprised to learn that these companies have even made a “game out of it.” For example, the Wild Divine biofeedback computer game engages a person’s attention and draws them into the challenge of the diversion, just like any other video game.
But people will find that the Wild Divine biofeedback game is based on the concept of a medical biofeedback system, and it has a very different approach to gaming interfaces and offers a surprising twist. The Wild Divine system includes a software package that runs on your PC, similar to other computer games, but you won’t be able to control the game using your mouse or your keyboard, and there’s no joystick to plug in either.
Instead, the Wild Divine software package includes a set of finger sensors that slip onto three of your fingers. These sensors are attached to a small biofeedback device which then plugs into the USB port on your computer. The game is not controlled by the motion of your fingers, but instead it reads the electrical impulses being sent through your fingers as a result of changes in your brainwave patterns, making this a true biofeedback game.
This game approach is quite unlike the kind of biofeedback system that you would find in a clinic, which you might visit to receive a neurofeedback therapy session. Traditional biofeedback machines show a series of charts, graphs, lights and other readouts and also often incorporate sounds, which is what displays the all-important feedback information.
But with the Wild Divine biofeedback game, the feedback that the user receives is all in terms of an adventure video game. By the use of thoughts to control brainwave function, the electrical impulses are changed, sent through the small biofeedback device attached, to your personal computer and the game responds accordingly. You are able to move through a variety of levels that present increasingly difficult challenges, which you must meet with improved control over your brainwave activity.
Since full-blown neurotherapy treatments have been prohibitively expensive for a large segment of people interested in this holistic alternative health care approach, the biofeedback system offered by Wild Divine has brought this technology into the realm of being affordable for just about everyone. The cost of the basic Wild Divine system is just under $150 and there are some advanced and specialized modules that you can add-on, as you advance through your biofeedback journey.
