Abstract	Background: Nicotine, one of the many dangerous chemicals included in cigarettes, causes atherosclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other respiratory and cardiovascular conditions. Wheezing, frequent coughing, with or without phlegm, increased dyspnea, and decreased respiratory muscle endurance might result from this. The study's primary goal is to determine how breathing exercises and chest proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation affect female smoker's blood pressure. Method: According to the study's criteria, 20 subjects were included in this comparative analysis, For two weeks, participants underwent breathing exercises and a chest proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation approach. Five minutes after treatment on Day 1 and Day 14 blood pressure readings were taken. The data was analyzed using the ANOVA (single factor). Conclusion: Significant improvement in terms of blood pressure was observed in participants who received chest proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and breathing exercises
