Bhramari Pranayam (BP) has been assumed to have positive effects on improving the quality of voice. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of Bhramari pranayama on the quality of voice in a dysphonic individual. A patient diagnosed with dysphonia was given voice therapy, wherein bhramari Pranayama was prescribed as a direct intervention strategy for two weeks. After two weeks of therapy, it was found that the patient had significant improvement in acoustic measures, perceptual measures, and voice handicap index scores. The patient was followed up further to check the stabilization, during which the patient’s voice parameters had stabilized acoustically and perceptually.
