To tell you the truth, the concept of biofeedback has been around in medicine for a very long time. So there is nothing new with biofeedback. What is relatively fresh, is the biofeedback therapy. Ever since the inception of homeostasis in 1885, the concept of monitoring the body and treating physical and mental problems by voluntary control of physical aspects is pretty well known. It was in 1969 that the term "Biofeedback Therapy" came into existence.
