HRV Biofeedback for Cardiovascular Recovery in Athletes
Grade BControlled clinical study2025
What did this study find?
Soccer players completed ten sessions of heart rate variability biofeedback and showed faster cardiovascular recovery following aerobic exercise. The population was young, trained and healthy, so the result describes performance recovery in athletes rather than any clinical benefit, and it was not tested against a blinded sham condition.

A positive PEMF study is not evidence for a specific device unless the signal parameters studied, frequency, intensity, waveform, and exposure duration, are reasonably comparable to what that device produces. Where this record does not list those parameters, the source report did not publish them. See the grading methodology. Library last reviewed 2026-08-27.
