Summary
This study looked at whether a specific type of exercise that coordinates shoulder and pelvis movements can improve breathing and quality of life in people aged 65 and older. Forty healthy older adults took part. The exercises focused on body awareness and coordination, and the researchers measured lung function and chest expansion. The goal was to see if this approach could be a helpful, drug-free way to support respiratory health in seniors.
