Singing your way to better lungs? small study tests a musical approach for COPD

This study tested whether singing and vocal exercises could improve lung function in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Five adults with COPD took part in virtual singing sessions twice a week for four weeks, guided by a music therapist. Researchers measured air trapping in the lungs and breathing capacity before and after the program to see if singing helped reduce the breathlessness caused by COPD.
