This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, shortness of breath, a whistling sound (wheezing) when we breathe out. Exposure to various irritants and substances that triggers allergies (allergens) can trigger signs and symptoms of asthma. Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess and compare the effectiveness of buteyko breathing technique versus diaphragmatic breathing technique in asthmatic patients.

Methods: A sample of 30 patients within the age group of20-55 yearswith Asthmatic patients were randomly divided into two groups, Group A(n= 15)and group B(n= 15). The subjects in group A is treated with buteyko breathing technique. The subjects in group B is treated with diaphragmatic breathing technique. The subjects were used to diagnose lung capacity by FEV1 and PEFR. The pre and Post test results were tabulated and assessed.

Results: Data analysis revealed statistically significant difference between both groups and proved that the Buteyko Breathing therapy is effective than Diaphragmatic Breathing therapy in asthmatic patients.

Conclusion: This study concluded that the Buteyko Breathing therapy was more effective than Diaphragmatic Breathing therapy in asthmatic patients. Buteyko breathing exercises reduced the asthma symptoms and helps in increasing the quality of life for asthma patients.
