Himalayan Institute Tanpsh1.5lb 1.5 Lb Neti Pot Salt Bag, White/yellow
I can never suggestion out of my nose very well. I thought this would help judging from all the great reviews. After using it several times, it has done absolutely nothing to relieve me. It sounds like it is best used for allergies. So I guess I'll try it again in the spring.
Not that big
I definite to buy a neti pot after sinus issues were starting to keep me up at night, and ultimately decided on this one.
Pros: it is quite pretty, I like the the poop indeed that it is ceramic and can be cleaned more easily than plastic, and although it took a while to get the hang of, it has helped with congestion.
Cons: the disgorge is uncomfortably large. It is too thick to actually fit into my nostril, and the bulky, rounded edge doesn't create a very accomplished seal. Additionally, the small, squat shape of the pot makes it difficult to fill to the top without slopping water everywhere (noticeably if you mix the salt in the pot, rather than a separate container), and even more difficult to pour water through the sinuses without accidentally tipping too far and spilling not function from the top of the pot. Some days, I feel like more water ends up spilled on my bathroom counter than in my nose.
I will extend to use it for now because of the benefit to my sinuses, but I plan on eventually replacing it with a more user-friendly model.
it works
like others say, it feels "funky" the first in the good old days b simultaneously, but you get used to it right away. I use it at least once a week and it really helps.
tucker pot
I first purchased a neti pot from Walgreens. Never did like it so I bought the NeilMed squirt control and like it better but the Himalayan pot just feels right. It is balanced and easy to use.
I can suspire!
A miracle gubbins!
I must admit, I ended up using the Neti Pot out of sheer desperation - not out of recommendation. It seems that when I get a cold I always have the worst sinus problems, sum total blockage and a terribly runny nose. Sinus problems are definitely the most annoying symptoms with a distant, for me anyways.
For me, when I get a cold usually it goes like this -
First I'll try steam, vapor-rub, and pretty much every non-medicine based course. I don't like using cold medicine because often-times it doesn't work at all, in the best case my sinuses will unquestioned slightly and I'll have a terrible runny nose. But usually it doesn't work and I'm stuck with that 'medicine-fountain-head' feeling the next day. So, meds don't work. I don't like using sprays because they only work briefly and my mom actually buried her sense of smell by using a nasal spray, so that scared me away. In the end I just fight a losing affray until I eventually get over the cold.
Recently a terrible cold started going around at my office. I work in a humble office of a dozen people so it hit everybody - hard. I started going through the same rituals of steam, vapors, etc (they do seem to employment slightly, though it's often short-lived). After doing a little research I ran across this device. The whole thing sounded odd, but it did alter b transfer sense so out of desperation I decided to give it a try. Let me say, I'm never going back to my old rituals! This thing really is magic.
I can't believe how well the neti pot works! It's so open, so basic, but it works so well! When I flush my sinuses with the neti pot I get instant relief and long lasting relief at that! Before I would beg for at most 5 minutes of relief and now I can go at least a couple hours (and that's when my cold is at its worst). Unlike medicine my nose dries up enough to where it doesn't run at all! (But not too dry) It's almost too acceptable to be true, instant, long-lasting relief and no runny nose? No way! Also, I swear my cold is booming away much faster then usual. I'm writing this on my break and as I write this review I'm hearing people sniffle and talk side-splitting and they've had this cold for a couple weeks now. I just got this cold a few days ago and I'm feeling much better all-around. I'm not sure if this is portion me get over the cold faster then usual, but it sure seems that way.
I do have a few tips for you though if you decide to go this route -
First, if your nose is 100% blocked (or a nostril is) then the neti pot might not effort so well - you should have at least a little bit of air-movement through your nostrils. If you're totally blocked then try to clear your nose temporarily, even slightly, so you can use this hallmark. Try taking a hot shower, using a vapor-rub, or even try doing as many push-ups as you can (this really does work).
Try clearing out the most blocked nostril first. I have be familiar with reviews where people experience ear pain when using a neti pot. I think what happens is that people have a really plugged nostril and they start by distressing to clear the lesser-plugged nostril and the unclear nostril is so clogged that the solution takes another road - to the ear, which causes ear pain. If you start with the most plugged nostril then if the solution doesn't clear it, at least the solution is blocked rectify away and not taking another route in your head!
Don't tilt your head too much. Once you have the solution flowing through your sinuses and the neti pot starts to empty a bit, lately tilt the neti pot more, not your head. When I used this for the first time I tilted my head too far and I could feel the solution go deep in my ears and it caused a scarcely bit of ear pain. I immediately stopped so the pain wasn't too bad, but you can avoid it by not tilting too much. This all may sound complicated but it's not, at most watch a couple YouTube videos and you'll see how to do it correctly.
The neti pot isn't just great for colds and allergies - it's whole to use every day! Go ahead and use it so your sinuses are always nice and clean.
In the end I can't recommend this enough. It's the only thing that works well for me when I have a cold. When I'm over this cold quite I still plan on using this pot at least a few times a week, just to keep things clear. This device may sound queer (my wife thinks I'm nuts!) but it really does work. Try it!
