Core Tip	Gastroesophageal reflux disease is a common gastrointestinal condition in the Western world, but remains challenging to treat. Acid suppression with proton-pump inhibitors substantially improves medical therapy, though it is not successful in all patients. Recently, some studies have shown that inspiratory muscle training increases lower esophageal sphincter pressure in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease. However, other well-controlled studies are needed to establish if there is a substantial gain and maintenance in pressure, as well as clinical improvement, and to access the influence of inspiratory muscle training in particular group of individuals.
