Autobiography of a Heart

Knudsen, Conrad

Conrad Knudsen is a long-time resident of Marin County, California and since 1979 has worked with people whose vitality has been diminished due to chronic pain and disease. As a biofeedback therapist and counselor, he has helped hundreds of people regain control over their lives and health. Knudsen was a participant in Dean Ornish's pioneering research on life style changes for people living with heart disease, and has facilitated Ornish's support groups in the San Francisco area since the program went public. He also travels nationally as a speaker at Ornish programs held in hospitals across the country. Conrad continues his work using biofeedback techniques, creative writing workshops, and group sessions for the management of chronic pain and disease.
