Deep breaths for back pain: simple breathing technique tested as pain reliever

This study investigates whether adding diaphragmatic breathing exercises to standard posture and core stabilization training can reduce pain, improve body awareness, and affect heart health in women with chronic non-specific neck and upper back pain. Participants are divided into two groups: one does posture and core exercises alone, while the other adds breathing exercises twice a week for eight weeks. The goal is to see if this simple addition provides extra relief beyond exercise alone.
