Introduction: Asthma originates most commonly in infancy and less so in middle age. It occurs with equal frequency in both the sexes during youth. However males are more susceptible in later life than females. Nervousness is intimately connected with the disease. However asthma itself is not fatal. Objectives: to find out whether there would be any significant difference clinical profile and PEFR of women with bronchial asthma after Yoga Therapy. Materials & Methods: The pretest and post test random group design and convenient sampling were adopted. The Study was conducted at Sri Hari Yoga Vidhyalayam, Rajapalayam, Tamilnadu. Sample size was 30 patients; 15 in intervention and 15 in control group. Data collected were collected on back ground variables, clinical profile, Peak expiratory flow rate. The data was analyzed with F ratio (ANCOVA–analysis co variance) and 0.05 level of confidence was used to test the significance. Result: The derived F ratio was 6.5 as against the table value of 3.1 proving that there was significant difference. Conclusions: After Yoga Therapy intervention there was significant improvement in chest expansion and PEFR rate. The Number attacks and usage of drugs are reduced.
