Professor and Neurologist Highlights Biofeedback on National TV

Cenli showcased on national TV as an example of how biofeedback can be made accessible at home

Professor and Neurologist Anne Hege Aamodt from Oslo University Hospital, appeared on the national morning show Good Morning Norway on TV2 to talk about migraine — a condition affecting an estimated 800,000 people in Norway. She discussed how migraine impacts daily life and presented a range of approaches and tools that can support those living with the condition, and the new clinical trial NorMig.

One of the methods she highlighted was biofeedback, which has been researched for several decades. Biofeedback uses real-time measurements of bodily signals, such as heart rate variability and muscle tension, to increase awareness of how the nervous system responds to stress and everyday stimuli.

Cenli was shown as an example of how biofeedback can be made accessible at home. Aamodt described the product as the result of ten years of research and development carried out by teams at NTNU (the Norwegian University of Science and Technology) and St. Olavs Hospital. She noted that biofeedback is about gaining insight into the body’s signals, helping people better understand their own stress responses.

Aamodt’s presentation reflects the growing interest in tools that support self-regulation and stress management. Many people living with migraine report that understanding their triggers and recognizing physiological patterns can make everyday life more predictable and manageable. Biofeedback is increasingly mentioned in this context.

Seeing this topic featured on a national platform like Good Morning Norway underscores how relevant it is — and how valuable accessible knowledge and resources are for those living with migraine today.
