Heart Rate Variability (HRV) Biofeedback is evidence-based to address physiological stress. Biofeedback helps you learn about your stress response and then how to control it and retrain it for calm states.
The goal of HRV biofeedback is to amplify your body’s ability to respond effectively during stress and increase your body’s ability to efficiently recover following the stressor. HRV biofeedback is also useful beyond just navigating critical moments. It hones your body’s natural response to stress and helps you achieve clarity, confidence, and resilience. HRV training can be used to increase focus and attention, elevate mood, relieve trauma, improve sleep, reduce anxiety, and enhance your overall well-being. As you increase your HRV and strengthen your parasympathetic nervous system, you may also find that your relationships improve as you become able to listen more empathetically, make better decisions under pressure, and enjoy a sense of mindfulness.
We use either the IOM2 Interactive Biofeedback and Meditation program or Heartmath. We combine biofeedback with other therapies to maximize wellness.
Schedule an appointment with Joanne to learn more and experience the benefits of HRV Biofeedback.
The goal is to educate you on how to use the biofeedback program to then practice daily at home.
With a simple ear clip, the iom2 measures your body’s Heart Rate Variability (HRV) to determine your Resonance score, a direct reflection of your state of stress or relaxation. Paired with Unyte’s Journeys software on desktop or mobile devices, the innovative iom2 helps you gain more awareness of your thoughts, feelings, emotions and physical state, guiding you through your meditation and into deeper states of relaxation.

The iom2 device measures Heart Rate Variability (HRV), a measure of the variation in time between heartbeats and is considered to be a strong indicator of meditative state. Decades of research has shown that a higher HRV correlates with an optimal, relaxed nervous system state, positive emotions, and improved health.
Interactive Meditation teaches specific breathing, mindfulness and relaxation techniques proven to increase your HRV. You gain instantaneous awareness of your nervous system state and learn to directly influence your HRV.
Interactive Meditation Journeys include a customizable breathing indicator that guides you to a more optimum breathing rate. Your breathing rate influences your HRV and Resonance score, which is clearly displayed in real-time.
The Resonance score ranges from 1 to 100% and is a direct reflection of the magnitude of your HRV. The higher your HRV, and the more relaxed you are, the higher your resulting resonance score.
