Title: sinus / nasal flush Post by karma on Aug 13th, 2008 at 5:55pm
It's been around awhile but I just got introduced to the neti pot. It's nothing but a small teapot shaped container that you use to flush the sinuses with a saline solution.
I've had sinus problems for awhile that are aggravted by CH and this thing is magic. Simple, cheap and feels real soothing after a hit. |

Thanks for sharing this tip! It can provide a good flush of the sinus.
Beware overuse though. It can lead to a severe drying of the nasal passages and also affects the natural bacteria that we need for the nose to function normally. I knew a yogi once who overused this technique and lost her sense of smell for 6 months. Having said all that, used sparingly it can really help. -Dennis- |
