PURPOSE: This study was conducted to monitor the performance of breathing exercises by patients with lumbar instability who had altered breathing patterns. METHODS: To investigate the effects of breathing exercises on spinal posture, mobility, and stabilization in patients with lumbar instability with altered breathing patterns, 30 adult participants were enrolled on the basis of the selection criteria and randomly assigned to the breathing exercise group (BEG) or trunk stabilization exercise group (SEG). A pre-test was performed prior to the intervention exercise program. The intervention exercise program consisted of 15 sessions (three sessions per week for 5 weeks) between August and September of 2016. The post-test was performed on the 6th week of intervention. RESULTS: Pre- and post-test comparisons of BEG and SEG revealed significant improvements in all tested items in the SEG, except for spinal mobility, while significant improvements in spinal postures 1 and 2, spinal mobility, and stabilization were found in the BEG. Between-group comparisons revealed that there were no significant differences in spinal posture 1, spinal posture 2, spinal mobility, or stabilization, whereas significant differences were found in spinal posture 2 and spinal mobility, with the BEG showing greater improvements than the SEG. CONCLUSION: Based on the findings in the present study, it is believed that breathing exercises have important effects on spinal posture, mobility, and stabilization in patients with lumbar instability who have altered breathing patterns.

제안 방법
Descriptive statistics were used to investigate the general characteristics of the subjects, while paired t-tests were used for the within-group comparisons of spinal posture, mobility, and stabilization between pre- and post-interventions. Independent t-tests were employed to identify differences between groups.
The overall exercise program for both groups consisted of 5 min of light treadmill walking as a warm-up exercise, followed by 30 min of breathing exercise for the experimental group and trunk stabilization exercise for the control group as the main exercise and then 5 min of light trunk stretching for the cool down exercise.
The present study applied breathing exercises to patients with lumbar instability who had altered breathing patterns and measured their spinal posture, segment mobility, and spinal stabilization ability with loads. The study also aimed to verify the importance of breathing exercises for patients with lumbar instability and CLBP by comparing the results to those of trunk stabilization exercises, which have been confirmed to be effective for treating spine curvature changes, as well as inducing spinal mobility and stabilization in patients with CLBP.
A Spinal Mouse (IDLAG AG, Swiss) was used for the spinal measurements. This is a device that measures spinal mobility and shape on the sagittal and frontal planes, and its reliability has been confirmed via correlation analysis based on time differences and measurers.

A total of 27 subjects who participated in the present study were randomly allocated into the BEG and SEG. In the homogeneity test, there were no significant differences between groups (Table 1).
The SPIRO TIGER® (ldiag, Switzerland) breathing exercise equipment was used.
The subjects consisted of adults residing in Gwangju, South Korea, who received explanations regarding the objectives and procedures in the study and voluntarily provided their consent to participate. 1) Adults aged 20–40 years with lumbar instability (characterized by excessive movement in specific segments during active movement and posterior-anterior spring test causing large movements and pain), 2) no history of back surgery, inflammatory spinal disorder, deformed vertebrae, fracture, or neurological radiating pain, 3) no spinal muscle strengthening and cardiopulmonary exercises for the past 1 month, 4) and no diagnosis of pathological problems in the respiratory system were included in this study.
