Introduction[edit | edit source]

Defenition  : Diaphragmatic breathing is a type of a breathing exercise that helps strengthen your diaphragm, an important muscle that helps you breathe as it represent 80% of breathing . This breathing exercise is also sometimes called( belly breathing or abdominal breathing) .


Physiological effect :

  • 1. It helps you cope with the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
  • 2. It improves your core muscle stability.
  • 3. It improves your body’s ability to tolerate intense exercise.
  • 4. It lowers your chances of injuring or wearing out your muscles.
  • 5. It slows your rate of breathing so that it expends less energy.
  • 6. It helps you relax, lowering the harmful effects of the stress hormone cortisol on your body.
  • 7. It lowers your heart
  • 8. It helps lower your blood pressure

application :


Indication :

  • 1. Post -operative pain
  • 2. Pulmonary disease (primary or secondary)
  • 3. Air way obstruction (COPD)
  • 4. Atelectasis
  • 5. Restriction of breathing due to musculoskeletal abnormality or obesity
  • 6. Central nervous system deficit
  • 7. Neurological patient with muscle weakness .
  • 8. Surgical procedure such as thoracic or abdominal surgeries .
