Additionally, there are 31 other conditions that both sample adults and sample children could report treating with biofeedback. For the full list of conditions, see BIOTREAT.
Biofeedback is one of 16 modalities of alternative medicine that were included in the 2002 and 2007 Alternative Health Supplement. Respondents could report treating glaucoma by 14 of those methods. (The omitted alternative treatments are hypnosis and movement techniques, which were included as treatments for specific health problems in the 2007 survey only. See HYPYR and MOVALEXYR for more information.) Analysts interested in the treatment of glaucoma by other alternative therapies should see BIOYR for the full list of alternative medicine treatments and a summary of other biofeedback-related questions, as well as definitions.
