The research question
What muscle-tension pattern is present at rest and during relevant tasks, and can the patient learn to reduce it?
A focused surface-EMG service for tension-type headache, quantifying relevant muscle activation and training voluntary down-regulation through biofeedback.
Clinical EMG / biofeedback room
Technology configuration
Measurement follows the task
The technology path shown here is the approved structure for this service. The exact protocol is configured around the research question, environment and participant flow.
Rest, task activation and real-time biofeedback.
