Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Diaphragm release
The therapist passes his fingers under the costal arch, during inspiration the therapist accompanies the movement of the ribs, while during expiration he takes his fingers deeper, increasing his pressure. The therapist progresses progressively deeper into the costal arch with each breath. The maneuver will be performed in two sets of 10 deep breaths. The diaphragm release technique will be applied in 3 sessions, with 2 days of rest in between.
Manual Diaphragm Release Technique
The therapist passes his fingers under the costal arch, during inspiration the therapist accompanies the movement of the ribs, while during expiration he takes his fingers deeper, increasing his pressure. The therapist progresses progressively deeper into the costal arch with each breath. The maneuver will be performed in two sets of 10 deep breaths. The diaphragm release technique will be applied in 3 sessions, with 2 days of rest in between.
