Lung involvement, seen in 95% of patients, causes limitation of lung capacity and decrease in inspiratory muscle strength, which are important factors that lead to an increase in dyspnea and a decrease in walking distance. In addition to respiratory muscle weakness, skeletal muscle dysfunction is also frequently observed. The most common symptoms in sarcoidosis are dyspnea and fatigue. When the current literature is examined, it can be seen that studies on non-pharmacological treatment methods in Sarcoidosis are quite limited. Although relatively common in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), various studies conducted in patients with Bronchiectasis, Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and Asthma have shown that yoga results in a decrease in dyspnea and fatigue, and an increase in pulmonary functions and exercise capacity. On the other hand, no study has been found on yogic techniques in Sarcoidosis. Aim of this study is to investigate the effects of yogic techniques and conventional physiotherapy program on pulmonary functions, body oxygen level test (BOLT), exercise capacity …
