Summary

This study tested two non-drug approaches—posture correction exercises and the Papworth breathing technique—in 38 adults with mild to moderate asthma and forward head posture. The goal was to see which method better reduces shortness of breath, improves chest expansion, and boosts quality of life. Both techniques aim to ease symptoms without changing standard asthma care.
