“…[6][7][8] The underlying mechanism of the increase of respiratory functions after the MT was claimed as an increase in joint mobility, increase of the inspiratory muscle length, and decrease of muscle tone and pain. 6,8,9 The effectiveness manual diaphragmatic release technique in patients with COPD also has been suggested in previous studies. 10,11 Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) consists of resisted breathing exercises to improve the strength of respiratory muscles and aerobic capacity of healthy adults and patients.…”

Objective: It was aimed to compare the effects of manual therapy (MT) and Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) on respiratory functions and postural problems of young adults in this study. Material and Methods: Thirty-five volunteers were randomly allocated into IMT and MT groups. All participants received twenty minutes of IMT twice a week for four weeks. Eight sessions of manual therapy were applied to MT group in addition to IMT. Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1), Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), FEV1/FVC ratio, Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF), forward head posture (FHP) and thoracic hyperkyphosis were evaluated before and after the treatments. Results: Although there were significant improvements in the FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC ratio and PEF scores of MT group (p0.05). The comparisons of post-treatment scores of the FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC ratio and PEF between the groups revealed the greater improvements in the MT group than IMT group (p
