contents <p>Oropharyngeal muscle exercises (OME) strengthen the tongue, throat, and soft palate, helping keep the airway open during sleep. Regular practice reduces snoring and improves sleep quality. Adequate sleep is essential for physical, mental, and emotional health. Sleep disturbances are common worldwide, with insomnia affecting 10–30% of people and OSA impacting millions of adults. main objective of the study to assess the effectiveness of OME on sleep patterns (pre- and post-intervention). Study was Quantitative, pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design, sample size was 45 adults (45–60 years) selected by purposive sampling from Kachandur and Kurud, Durg District. Data collected by use of tools one was socio-demographic Performa, standardized tool, 28-item Sleep Quality Index. result of the study was in pre-test: 71.11% very poor sleep, 28.89% poor sleep after 15 days intervention post- test was 84.44% good sleeps, 11.11% very good sleep. Paired t-test showed significant improvement (t = 4.88, p < 0.05). Significant association with weight, habits, and non-communicable diseases; no association with age, gender, education, occupation, income, height, marital status, or communicable diseases. researcher concluded the study Oropharyngeal muscle exercises are a simple, non-invasive, and effective method to improve sleep quality among adults with sleep disturbances. researcher recommended that study can conduct in larger samples and in different settings.</p>
