Experimental: Salt-Cave Yoga-Based Breathing Exercise Group
Participants completed the physiotherapist-supervised yoga-based breathing exercise program at the Tuzluca Salt Therapy Center for 6 weeks, twice weekly.
The program content, session duration, frequency, and supervision were identical to those of the comparator group; the planned between-group difference was the intervention setting.
|
Participants received a physiotherapist-supervised yoga-based breathing exercise program at the Tuzluca Salt Therapy Center.
The intervention lasted 6 weeks and included two sessions per week, for a total of 12 sessions.
Each standardized session lasted approximately 50 minutes and included preparatory breathing control, diaphragmatic breathing, Suusi breathing, Kapalabhati, Ujjayi, Anuloma-Viloma/Nadi Shodhana, Bhastrika, Bhramari, Agni Sar, and relaxation.
The exercise content, session frequency, duration, and physiotherapist supervision were identical to those provided in the standard clinical setting group; the planned difference was the intervention setting.

Change in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) From Baseline to Week 6
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, week 3, and week 6; primary endpoint at week 6
|
FEV1 was measured in liters using pre-bronchodilator spirometry.
Participants performed three forced expiratory maneuvers under standardized instruction, and the best acceptable value was recorded.
The primary comparison was the between-group difference in change from baseline to week 6.
An interim measurement was also obtained at week 3
