Summary

This study looks at whether adding a special breathing technique called 'box breathing' to a short-term lung rehab program can help people with COPD feel less short of breath and do more in their daily lives. The study will include 40 adults aged 40 to 65 with mild COPD. Participants will be assigned to either standard rehab or rehab plus box breathing, and their breathing and walking ability will be measured before and after the program.
