Patient & Client Care

Integrate biofeedback directly into care.

For the people who work with individual patients and clients. Give them tools they can see working — and the science-backed data to stand behind it.

Practicing clinicians

Clinicians

Practicing clinicians

Your patients are carrying more stress than talk alone can shift. HeartMath gives you evidence-based HRV biofeedback tools to help them manage the effects of stress — used by physicians, psychologists, therapists, and nurse practitioners.

  • Your patients see the shift as it happens — and keep practicing between visits.
  • Certification
  • Inner Balance
Coaches & trainers

Coaches & trainers

Coaches & trainers

Your clients come to you because something isn't working. With HeartMath's biofeedback tools, change becomes visible — in real time, in session. Abstract goals turn into observable physiological shifts. That's a different kind of coaching conversation.

  • Clients see their own nervous system respond. You get tools that set your practice apart.
  • Coach certification
  • Inner Balance
Staff & Employee Wellness

Resilience programs with measurable outcomes.

For organizations addressing burnout, performance, and workforce well-being — with observable data to demonstrate it's working. 

Hospital & VA staff wellness

  • Staff training
  • Group programs
  • Burnout prevention
Enterprise & organizations

  • Not just a wellness benefit. A performance program with data to show for it.
  • Team training
  • Scalable
  • Performance metrics
The Research Foundation

The pioneers of HRV research

 The HeartMath Institute research has been the scientific foundation of our work since 1991. Long before HRV became a mainstream metric, the Institute researchers were among the first to identify heart rate variability as a definitive window into how the body responds to stress — and HeartMath created the first consumer device to train it. Every HeartMath program, technique, and certification on this page is built on that body of evidence.

In over 25 years of clinical practice I have studied many treatment modalities. Without exception, the HeartMath tools are the most utilized tools I teach.
Sara G. Gilman, PsyD, MFT
2-time Past President, EMDRIA
As the CEO of my hospital, HeartMath programs have been the game-changer. For me personally, it has improved my health, relationships, and productivity — and also allowed me to improve the culture of my organization through leadership by example. Healthier, happier, and more productive employees clearly impact the quality of our care for our patients.
Todd Linden, President & CEO (Ret.)
Grinnell Regional Medical Center
The beautiful thing about the HeartMath program is it gives you immediate ongoing feedback to know how you’re doing. It actually measures where you are and can guide you to a better place scientifically — and that’s the cool part.
