Mandibular Stretching and 4-4-8 Breathing Exercises on Autonomic Nervous System Activity

Condition(s) studied

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Mandibular Stretching Exercise: Participants perform mandibular stretching exercises according to the study protocol

4-4-8 Breathing Exercise: Participants perform the 4-4-8 breathing exercise according to the study protocol.

Study summary

Mandibular stretching exercises and breathing techniques may influence autonomic nervous system activity, muscle tone, and psychological state. This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the effects of mandibular stretching exercise and the 4-4-8 breathing exercise on autonomic nervous system activity, muscle tone, and psychological parameters in healthy university students. Participants will be randomly assigned to intervention groups and evaluated before and after the intervention period.

Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• Autonomic Nervous System Activity — Baseline and 20, 40, 80, and 120 minutes after the intervention
  Autonomic nervous system activity will be assessed by measuring heart rate (beats per minute) using a digital pulse oximeter and blood pressure (mmHg) using an automatic blood pressure monitor. Measurements will be recorded at baseline and repeatedly after the intervention period (20, 40, 80, and 120 minutes).
