BCIA Launches a Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback Certificate of Completion

The Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA) has developed a certificate of completion program to establish education and training standards for the exciting modality of heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback. HRV represents the beat-to-beat changes in the intervals between consecutive heartbeats. A growing list of HRV biofeedback applications has earned ratings from possibly efficacious to probably efficacious. BCIA's expert-designed Blueprint of Knowledge and exam promise to increase the academic rigor of didactic HRV biofeedback courses and enhance the knowledge of providers who incorporate this modality into their practice.
