Summary

This study tests a 6-session biofeedback program for adults aged 18-60 who still have shortness of breath even after seeing a lung specialist and trying standard treatments like inhalers. Biofeedback teaches people to control things like heart rate and body temperature to help reduce symptoms. The goal is to see if this approach improves breathing, mood, sleep, and quality of life.
