Modified inspiratory muscle training (m-IMT) as promising treatment for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

CONCLUSIONS: m-IMT is a low cost therapy without side effects. It could be useful in association with PPI or alone for selected GERD cases and for mild NERD forms, in association with diet. Further studies are required to prove the effects of m-IMT on GERD symptoms and decide the best treatment schedule.
