Biofeedback with the eSense Skin Response (GSR Sensor)!
The Mindfield eSense Skin Response is a small, advanced sensor designed to measure your skin conductance through the microphone input of your smartphone or tablet (compatible with Android and Apple iOS). This innovative biofeedback device allows you to monitor your body’s physiological responses, such as stress, from the comfort of your home. The biofeedback training it offers helps you learn to control involuntary bodily functions, such as heart rate and skin conductance, making it an ideal tool for those looking to improve their well-being.
With the GSR sensor, you can track changes in your skin resistance, which is directly linked to your stress levels. By incorporating biofeedback training into your routine, biofeedback may help you achieve greater mental clarity and physical relaxation. Consistent use of the eSense Skin Response provides valuable insights into how stress affects your body, allowing you to learn to control and reduce stress effectively. This not only lowers your heart rate but also promotes long-term health benefits, making it an essential addition to any personal wellness toolkit.
Advantages of biofeedback training with the eSense Skin Response (GSR Sensor)
The skin resistance meter is a highly effective tool for the regular monitoring of your skin conductance, allowing you to accurately and easily perform your biofeedback therapy from virtually anywhere. By measuring skin resistance using a GSR sensor, which applies a small electrical voltage to your skin, you can detect changes in stress levels. This method is completely safe and painless. Stressed bodies produce more sweat, leading to lower skin resistance, so with the eSense Skin Response and its GSR sensor, you can accurately assess your body’s stress levels. One major advantage of this biofeedback device is the ability to conduct measurements at home or even in your car—simply using your smartphone.
The eSense Skin Response brings applied psychophysiology and biofeedback into the home, making it easier to manage stress and improve your health. Whether you’re focusing on managing daily stress or addressing specific issues such as chronic pain or pelvic floor dysfunction, biofeedback therapy offers a personalized approach. By practicing regularly, you can gain better control over your body’s involuntary responses, learning how to relax tense muscles and reduce physical symptoms.
For those who require specialized biofeedback, such as for pelvic floor health or chronic pain management, the device provides an excellent starting point. It is often used in conjunction with guidance from a biofeedback therapist, who can recommend the appropriate type of biofeedback for your condition. The efficacy of biofeedback has been demonstrated across a variety of health conditions, and with consistent use, the eSense Skin Response allows you to manage your symptoms more effectively.
One of the key goals of biofeedback therapy is to develop long-term stress management techniques. With regular practice, you’ll gain an intimate understanding of how your body reacts to stress and how to take proactive steps to counter these reactions. Since every individual is different, sources of stress vary from person to person. The eSense Skin Response helps you become more aware of your body’s unique responses, empowering you to incorporate stress-reduction strategies into your daily life, leading to improved health and well-being over time.
With the eSense (GSR Sensor) you can…
- …do biofeedback training
- …measurize and reduce your stress level
- …create and use a guide for meditation
With the use of biofeedback, you can analyze your body’s entire experience and behavior in response to stress using the eSense Skin Response. This advanced biofeedback equipment allows you to work on reducing stress and improving overall well-being on a daily basis. By identifying the triggers that cause your body to release increased stress hormones, you gain valuable insight into your physiological state. The increased skin conductance you observe is the biofeedback your body gives you, signaling heightened stress levels.
Whether you’re dealing with muscle tension, anxiety, or even conditions like constipation, the eSense Skin Response helps you understand how your body reacts to various stressors. By regularly using this biofeedback device, you can integrate healthier habits into your routine and begin taking control of your body’s stress responses.
Each biofeedback session with the eSense Skin Response provides a clear view of how your body responds to stress, making it easier to adopt relaxation techniques that work for you. Over time, you will notice the positive effect of biofeedback on your stress management and overall health. Beyond skin conductance, the eSense Skin Response also works well in conjunction with other methods, such as thermal biofeedback, to help you manage conditions like muscle tension or stress-induced disorders.
Start your journey to understanding your body better and achieving long-term wellness by incorporating the eSense Skin Response into your daily life. It’s the most effective home-based biofeedback equipment available, providing precision and convenience at your fingertips.

- If you plan on purchasing a device for using the eSense, we suggest a Nokia G10, a Nokia G21, a Motorola Moto E40 or a Xiaomi Redmi 10 as an inexpensive entry-level device.
Your skin conductance depends directly on your state of relaxation or stress, making it a commonly used and very precise stress indicator. With the eSense Skin Response, you can precisely identify your stress level and reduce it with biofeedback training.
The eSense provides you in various ways with exact feedback about your momentary stress level, e.g. with measurement curves, video display and audio feedback features.
For the audio biofeedback, the eSense now has a headphone jack, so you can additionaly listen to music or audio books while training your stress level down!
The app for eSense is free, and allows exporting the measured data via e-mail. The eSense Skin Response is also compatible with the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus (in combination with the included Lightning to 3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter).
eSense app from Mindfield
The eSense comes with the eSense app which you can load for free in the in the Google Play Store (Android) or in the Apple App Store (iOS). The app contains a variety of functions for an effective biofeedback training in a modern design. Essential function are the display of the measured values app as bargraph and oscilloscope, a feedback by video, music, tones, vibration and new: by light via a Bluetooth® smart bulb.
eSense SDK and eSense Web App
Additionally you can also create own apps with our SDK. We also have developed an own eSense Web App with which you can stream your measured values to a PC.
