Plenary #201):  The Effects of Neurofeedback and HRV Biofeedback on Dance Performance 

This talk reports a controlled study comparing the performance of dancers randomly allocated to one of three groups - Neurofeedback, HRV Biofeedback and No Intervention. Both Neurofeedback and HRV Biofeedback improved dancers' performance, but in different ways. This talk will present the study and the results and describe the reasons for the differential effects.
The implications for other performance disciplines and clinical populations will be discussed.

Workshop #78):  The Treatment of Fatigue States 

The aim of this workshop is to provide participants with a greater conceptual framework of fatigue disorders, enabling them to refine the assessment and treatment of these disordersThe neuro-physiological and neuro-anatomical systems underpinning fatigue disorders will be described and participants will learn how to discriminate between primary and secondary fatigue disorders. Primary fatigue disorders are those such as “adrenal stress”, “cellular burnout”, Chronic Fatigue Immune Deficiency Syndrome (CFIDS) and mood disorders such as anxiety and depression. Secondary fatigue disorders are those such as thyroid dysfunction, inflammatory disease, toxic overload, multiple chemical sensitivities and “tired all the time” or TATT.

Neurofeedback protocols for fatigue disorders, neuro-vegetative states and other physical dysfunctions will be described.
