We have already showed the effective result of biofeedback therapy for bronchial asthma in the previous reports past 3 times. We use the respiratory resistance meter to mesure the respiratory resistance and asses the effect of biofeedback therapy. This report was made to show the actual therapeutic procedure through a cace of bronchial asthma who has 8 years of past history. Biofeedback training was applied to a 38 year old man who had undergone unsuccesfull hypo-sensitization therapy with house dust. Unstable pattern of respiratory resistance improved to stable pattern, and sensitivity of bronchus mesured by inhalation of acetylcholine has reduced from 12500 γ/ml to 1536 γ/ml after 138 times of biofeedback training. As the respiratory resistance getting better, the clinical symptoms gradually improved. It might be very significant to make a further investigation to proceed the biofeedback therapy for bronchial asthma.
