Biofeedback and Control of Skin Cell Proliferation in Psoriasis
Description:
The present study was designed to determine the effect of skin-temperature-biofeedback training on cellular proliferation in three psoriasis patients. It was hypothesized that (a) psoriasis patients would be able to consciously decrease skin temperature of psoriatic tissue, and (b) there would be a positive correlation between rate of cellular proliferation and temperature change.
Results obtained indicated biofeedback training to be effective in decreasing the surface temperature of psoriatic …
