First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether a structured exercise program for the neck could improve swallowing and breathing in people with swallowing difficulties caused by neck problems. Thirty-two adults aged 35-50 took part. The exercise group did neck stretches, strengthening, and stability moves plus swallowing exercises, while the control group did only swallowing exercises. The goal was to see if the neck exercises led to better swallowing function, head posture, and lung function.
