Stress has become a pandemic in recent years due to the socio-labor demands faced by society. On the other hand, it has a direct relationship with the quality of sleep, its influence being bidirectional. In this regard, several tools have been reported for the management of these conditions. These include strategies such as yoga, mindfulness, diaphragmatic breathing (DR) or Pilates. On the other hand, other proposals such as global postural reeducation (GPR) lack evidence in the management of these conditions.Objectives: Compare the effects of a diaphragmatic breathing self-management program with global postural reeducation on stress and sleep quality in university students.Method: The study will be carried out with physiotherapy students of the University Francisco de Vitoria. The participants will be randomly divided into three groups: GPR group, DR group and control group. Perceived stress (Perceived Stress Scale - PSS14) and reported sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index - PSQI) will be measured three times throughout the study: pre-intervention, 3 weeks after the start of the intervention and post-intervention. The intervention will last 6 weeks, during which time all participants will be required to complete the 5 Grade Scale (5GS) each morning. The GPR group will perform; Frog to the ground posture, while the DR group will follow a set breathing protocol at a 4/6 rhythm. Both GPR and DR will be performed 10 minutes before going to sleep.Ethical considerations:The principles of the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki will be followed. The proposed interventions are non-invasive, based on the combination of mild physical activity tools, body awareness and relaxation techniques.The dependent variables to be measured are based on clinimetric aspects, without any harm to the participants.Subjects will be asked to participate on a voluntary basis and may withdraw from the study at any time., conditionsModule conditions: Stress, conditions: Sleep Disturbance, designModule studyType: INTERVENTIONAL, phases: NA, designInfo allocation: RANDOMIZED, interventionModel: PARALLEL, interventionModelDescription: One group receives Diaphragmatic Breathing, one group receives Global Postural Reeducation, and the other group receives no intervention., primaryPurpose: TREATMENT, maskingInfo masking: SINGLE, whoMasked: OUTCOMES_ASSESSOR, enrollmentInfo count: 33, type: ESTIMATED, armsInterventionsModule interventions name: Diaphragmatic Breathing, interventions name: Global Postural Reeducation, outcomesModule primaryOutcomes measure: Stress, primaryOutcomes measure: Sleep Quality, secondaryOutcomes measure: Sleep Quality, eligibilityModule sex: ALL, minimumAge: 18 Years, stdAges: ADULT, stdAges: OLDER_ADULT, contactsLocationsModule, hasResults: False
