简要总结
Pilot study will be done with random sampling method. 52 healthy subjects assigned equally in 2 groups 26 in each group. Primary outcome measure will be Transversus Abdominis recruitment using Deep Muscle Contraction Scale,Pressure Biofeedback unit and Chest Expansion. Group A of smokers will receive Manual Diaphragm Release Technique as 6 sittings. Group B of non smokers will receive Manual Diaphragm Release Technique as 6 sittings.After 2 weeks, TRANSVERSUS Abdominis muscle activation and Thoracic expansion will be checked.
