AB - PURPOSE: This study examined the immediate effects of thoracic mobility exercises on the thoracic range of motion and chest expansion to provide data on thoracic mobility exercises in adults.
METHODS: Adults were assigned randomly to two groups: the group that performed thoracic mobility exercises (TME group; n=10) or the group that performed thoracic mobility exercises using balance tools (TMEB group; n=10).
The exercises were performed for 10 min in three different positions. The range of motion and chest expansion were measured before and after the exercise.
RESULTS: The within-group comparisons before and after the intervention showed significant differences in the range of motion measurements for lateral flexion and rotation in the TME and TMEB groups (p < .05); difference in measurements of chest expansion was observed only in the TMEB group (p < .05). No significant differences in the range of motion for flexion and extension were observed in either group or during chest expansion in the TME group (p > .05). The betweengroup comparisons showed a significant difference in left lateral flexion (p < .05), whereas no other measures differed significantly (p > .05).
CONCLUSION: The TME and TMEB groups showed significant increases in the thoracic range of motion; the TMEB group showed a significant increase in chest expansion.
