The technology of functional normalization of the cardiovascular system parameters by means of the alternating biofeedback on cardiac rhythm (cardiorespiratory training) with the use of a turning bed (verticalizer) is described, which allows to implement the oscillatory postural effects of ortho- and antiorthostatic nature automatically. Aim of the study. Increasing of application area of cardiorespiratory training due to the variety of options for biofeedback signals. Methods. The oscillation of the turning bed controlled by means of the parameters of heart rate variability sets for the examinee the order of alternation of the inspiration and expiration phases and the phases of the inspiration/expiration beginning. The method is available to patients with low vision, bedridden patients, early ages children; patients who are not able to understand the essence of the procedure. Results of researches. Positive dynamics of the test subjects’ functional state is, in particular, the normalization of activity of components of the autonomic nervous system; the reinstatement of the natural breathing pattern lost due to various reasons; increasing the variability of the heart rate; the cardiovascular system training due to moderate alternating ortho- and antiorthostatic load, estimated by number of physiological parameters.

Alpha wave production has been related to affective and physiological arousal states since Berger's (1929) initial research. More recently, the possibility of subjects' control of alpha production has been investigated via the innovation of biofeedback procedures. Research conducted by Kamiya in the 1960s and others led to the early conclusion that alpha-wave production could be controlled and that such control could faclitate enhancement of a person's state of physical and psychological well-being. Subsequent research data have questioned these conclusions. The present study focused upon alpha-wave production with or without a procedure for relaxation called “open-focus training.” Twenty subjects were divided into four equal groups and seen for three 20-min. sessions. Results suggested a deterioration of alpha production with all groups combined, no significant differences between the biofeedback and no biofeedback control groups (without “open-focus training”), and greater decrease in alpha production during each session in the “open-focus” groups (with or without biofeedback). These unusual results and their implications are discussed.
