Biofeedback therapy
Biofeedback is the process of gaining greater awareness of many physiological functions of one's own body, commercially by using electronic or other instruments, and with a goal of being able to manipulate the body's systems at will. Humans conduct biofeedback naturally all the time, at varied levels of consciousness and intentionality. Biofeedback and the biofeedback loop can also be thought of as self-regulation.[1][2] Some of the processes that can be controlled include brainwaves, muscle tone, skin conductance, heart rate and pain perception.[3]

Nadir is a term that basically means low point. When a person with cancer reaches their “nadir” following each chemotherapy cycle, it means that the person's blood cell counts are the lowest they will be during that treatment cycle. Each chemotherapy treatment comes with a nadir period.

What are colony stimulating factors examples?
Colony stimulating factors circulate in the blood, acting as hormones, and are also secreted locally. An example is erythropoietin, which is produced in the kidney and regulates the formation of red blood cells from progenitor cells in the bone marrow. Colony-stimulating factors include CSF1, CSF2 and CSF3.
