Intervention Type: Other
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

The study aims to evaluate the effects of Senobi versus Jacobsons muscular relaxation exercises on pulmonary functions, dyspnea, and sleep quality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The study design will be a randomized clinical trial. The study will be completed in 10 months after the approval of the synopsis from the Ethical Committee of RCRS and AHS. A non-probability convenient sampling technique will be used to recruit the individuals into two groups. Group A had undergone Senobi exercises and Group B engaged in Jacobsons Muscular relaxation exercises along with conventional treatment of COPD.

Treatments
Experimental: Senobi exercises
* Group A had undergone Senobi exercises training, scheduled three times weekly over 8 weeks, for individuals with COPD the duration and time interval time for Senobi exercises can vary depending on their overall health, fitness level, and tolerance.~* The session began with the comfortable sitting of participants with slow inhalation, filling the lungs for a count of 4-5 seconds and holding the breath for 2-3 seconds.~* In the second step exhale slowly through the mouth, emptying the lungs for a count of 4-5 seconds, and hold the breath for 2-3 seconds.~* The session started with a shorter session (3-5 minutes) and increased gradually as participants built up endurance with a breathing rate of 4-6 breaths per minute.~* The cycle of Senobi exercises was repeated for 5-10 minutes and 2-3 times a day.
Experimental: Jacobsons Muscular relaxation exercises
* Group B engaged in a Jacobsons Muscular relaxation exercises plan, following the same frequency and duration as the Senobi exercise program-three sessions per week for 8 weeks.~* The session started by tensing the muscles in the toes and then moving up the body tensing and relaxing each muscle group in turn (feet and toes, calves, thighs, hips, lower back, upper back, shoulders, arms, hands, neck, and head) and hold it for 5-7 seconds and released it for 5-7 seconds.~* Repeat the cycle 2-3 times per day with deep breaths between each cycle.~* The session started with a shorter session (3-5 minutes) and increased gradually as participants built up endurance with a breathing rate of 4-6 breaths per minute.
