SELF-REGULATION SKILLS

In the late 1970's, Dr. Evelyn Bird, a faculty member in the department of Human Kinetics at the University of Guelph, was researching biofeedback, stress management and relaxation skills. Her studies in the use of relaxation to alleviate muscle tension, bruxing, muscle tension headache and dysmenorrhea demonstrated very positive findings. Hearing of these results, requests for similar training came from friends of those in the studies, and from physicians, dentists, and counsellors. As a result, in 1979 Dr. Bird opened the Relaxation and Biofeedback Research/Therapy Clinic on a fee-for-service basis in the department of Human Kinetics.
