Thermal biofeedback may be a useful adjunctive technique for enhancing cutaneous blood flow in patients with lower-extremity vascular complications of diabetes. However, autonomic, sensory, and/or motor neuropathies may impair vasomotion and limit the ability to alter blood flow and achieve significant foot warming with thermal biofeedback. We exam...

Thermal biofeedback (TBF) increases blood flow and may promote healing of diabetic ulcers, the leading cause of nontraumatic amputation in the U.S. We examined the relationship between nerve function and hand- and foot-warming proficiency during TBF in diabetic patients. Multiple regression techniques revealed that sympathetic and sensory nerve fun...
