“…in 2018. In this study, it was concluded that performing balloon blowing exercises in a 90/90 bridge position with a ball showed significant improvement in respiratory function [17]. The study was also similar to a 2011 study by Sam Cheol et al, which found that balloon blowing exercise was beneficial in boosting respiratory activity [25] The results of the study were also similar to those of Hun-lo Kim et [15].…”

Background: Text neck syndrome is more likely to produce neck discomfort and soreness. The aim of this study is to see how Balloon Blowing Exercise compares to Modified Cervical Exercise and Swiss Ball Exercise in terms of lung capacity in patients with Text Neck Syndrome caused by poor posture. Methodology: A total of 30 students (N=30) were chosen and divided into two groups of 15 each (N1=15) (N2=15). They were randomly separated into two groups (Group 1 and Group 2). Group 1 consisted of fifteen (N=15) individuals who were given a balloon blowing activity. The modified cervical exercise along with Swiss ball exercise were was used on Fifteen people in Group 2 (N=15). Four weeks of intervention were given to the participants. Prior to the intervention, demographic data was obtained, students were requested to complete the NDI questionnaire, and a rural test measurement was performed. Before and after the intervention period, a spirometry test was performed to determine FEV and FVC. Result: The results showed improvement in FEV and FVC of balloon Blowing exercise group and modified cervical exercise along with Swiss ball exercise.

“…These exercises serve to increase core muscle activation while also strengthening the muscles [16]. The use of a ball in a 90/90 bridge position with a balloon blowing exercise was found to improve pulmonary function and lung capacity, increasing FVC and FEV1 [17].…”

“…This cannot be ignored because excessive SCM activation compensates for this weakness12 ) . Terret et al13 ) reported excessive SCM activation in their study, and Koh and Jung14 ) investigated %MVIC of SCM and scalene muscles in FHP and neutral position in their study. Both muscles showed higher muscle activities when subjects were in FHP than when they were in the neutral position.…”

The effect of feedback respiratory exercise on muscle activity, craniovertebral angle, and neck disability index of the neck flexors of patients with forward head posture

2016

[Purpose] This study aimed to simultaneously investigate the activities of the sternocleidomastoid muscle and scalenus anterior muscle, which are agonists of neck and breathing accessory muscles, by implementing breathing exercises. [Subjects and Methods] Thirteen subjects were selected for the experimental group, which performed feedback respiratory exercises with McKenzie exercises, and 12 subjects were selected for the control group, which performed McKenzie exercises alone. The intervention program was performed for 30 minutes a session, once a day, four times a week, and for 2 weeks before conducting the experiment. Before intervention, muscle activity was measured using surface electromyogram, and the neck disability index was evaluated. [Results] There were meaningful differences in activities of the sternocleidomastoid muscle and the scalenus anterior muscle, craniovertebral angle, and neck disability index within both the experimental group and control group after intervention. There also were meaningful differences in sternocleidomastoid muscle and neck disability index changes between groups. [Conclusion] Neck flexors as accessory respiratory muscle can affect inefficient respiratory imbalance of forward head posture patients. Multimodal intervention method should be studied continually and not be exposed to upper chest breathing patterns by preventing such phenomenon.

Effects of cervical self-stretching on slow vital capacity

et al. 2015

[Purpose] This study investigated the effects of self-stretching of cervical muscles, because the accessory inspiratory muscle is considered to improve pulmonary function. [Subjects] The subjects were 30 healthy university students 19–21 years old who did not have any lung disease, respiratory dysfunction, cervical injury, or any problems upon cervical stretching. [Methods] Spirometry was used as a pulmonary function test to measure the slow vital capacity before and after stretching. The slow vital capacity of the experimental group was measured before and after cervical self-stretching. Meanwhile, the slow vital capacity of the control group, which did not perform stretching, was also measured before and after the intervention. [Results] The expiratory vital capacity, inspiratory reserve volume, and expiratory reserve volume of the experimental group increased significantly after the cervical self-stretching. [Conclusion] Self-stretching of the cervical muscle (i.e., the inspiratory accessory muscle) improves slow vital capacity.
