Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The goal of this research study to see whether biofeedback therapy helps treat asthma, and if so, how it works. Biofeedback is a treatment method that can teach how to bodily control. Biofeedback is widely used to help people relax. In this study however, the investigators want to learn if a specific type of biofeedback actually improves asthma in a way that might allow the reduction or elimination of other controller treatments like inhaled-corticosteroids.
