Abstract

Diaphragm has a main function in core stabilization which can be defined as the capability of stabilizing the position and movement of the trunk over the pelvis. Diaphragmatic control may facilitate inspiration and decrease the work of breathing and dyspnea. The aim of this study is to compare the immediate effect of basic deep breathing exercise and core stabilization exercise. The study included 32 students (7M,25F; 21.46±0.71 years) without any chronic respiratory diseases. Pulmonary functions of participants were evaluated by spirometry. We evaluated the thoracic mobility by using basic tape measurement from axilla, epigastric and subcostal regions. The volunteers were randomly divided into a core stabilization exercise group (SG) (n=21) and a control group (CG) (n=11). The biofeedback unit (SPB) was placed under the lumbar 5th vertebra and patients attempted to maintain their core stability performing neutral zones in SG. Furthermore, physiotherapist tried to improve thoracolumbar awareness by following changes from SPB and volunteers assured a constant lumbar position during basic deep breathing exercise for 20 minutes. The CG was performed basic deep breathing exercises in a back supported sitting position for 20 minutes. Both groups completed the exercises for once and we aimed to observe the immediate differences between groups. The main results of this study comparing two groups, SG showed greater improvements in thoracic mobility from axilla, epigastric and subcostal regions (p<0.01). In conclusion, adding core stabilization exercises to basic deep breathing exercise may be more effective due to the improvements in thoracic mobility.
