I normally use a different brand nasal wash. This works just as well, is useful to have an alternative as I tend to change the bottle every 3 months. I generally use this just before bed, but occasionally in th emornu=ing if required. Great item that works well
This works really well and is a great way to do a nasal rinse.
The Neti Pot/Sinus Rinse Kit is easy to use. You just fill in with warm water and mix sale from one of the salt sachets and you have a solution that’s ready to go.
If you have never done this then it may seem unusual/strange and even scary thinking about putting water through one of your nostrils, however it is easy enough to do and you just tilt your head and open your mouth and the water eases from one nostril to another.
It really cleanses the nasal pathway nicely. The included sachets are very handy especially if you are travelling and you can always order more as you have many of these available at Amazon.
The design of this works well and it is easy to clean and use. Very functional and doing a regular nasal clean is really helpful. Overall this is a great device.
This contains all the useful tools to get you started. It has 60 packs of nasal salt which is more than enough for most people’s needs.
There is a sticker that lets you know what water temperature is ideal for this use.
You can adjust the nozzle and use one recommended for children and another for adults.
Once you have the neti pot filled with water and salt, you are ready to use it. You can watch video tutorials online but for the most part, it’s just leaning forward in a sink and holding your breath while gently squeezing the bottle.
This has been reliable for me and you use this once a day.
The mechanism is straightforward, just open the valve for a gentle rinse. For extra pressure, the bottle can be squeezed with the valve closed. The saline has the right concentration. So, the only remaining thing is to let the boiled water cool enough before rinsing.
I have sinus problems and this is a great tool.
Easy to fill and use, just make sure you use the right water, NOT tap water.
Fresh bottled water is ideal. I warm mine in a jug of hot water. (just place the whole bottle with the water inside the bottle) into a jug of hot / warm water and wait until the strip guide provided tells you its within range that is safe.
The salts (Only use salts that are for these, NOT table salts)
The salts for these are very fine and dissolve very quick.
Then use the tip that is best for you , tip upside down.
A button at the bottom is depressed when needed and the water flows out.
To those who are a bit overwhelmed or nervous about doing this don’t be .
Use over a sink you will feal a lot better believe me.
You will get a salty taste for a while but this is normal, a bit like when you swim in the sea but without the sting.
You will soon feel the benefits.
This is a comprehensive kit including a good amount of saline solution packets and a temperature gauge that affixes to the bottle to get the right temperature.
It takes a little practise to use effectively, but does offer relief in times of congestion. I used this at bedtime to ease my breathing through the night and it works well for that. This can be used to help relieve allergy symptoms, sinus infections or cods and is a handy item to have in the first aid kit. I recommend this item.
Have tried in the past, various designs of watering can style pots, squirty bottles, and off the shelf saline sprays. Hadn’t tried this exact design before, and can say it felt no more or less uncomfortable or difficult to use than others.
It is of course a matter of debate over whether the whole concept of saline rinses can actually make a difference to nasal and sinus problems. The provided salt sachets gave a concentration that didn’t immediately irritate, though will inevitably leave some feeling in the nose after use.
Just remember to boil water first, which is where the bottle could do with having some heat resistant wrap so don’t have to wait for boiled water to cool down enough to pour in and mix up with the salt. It also came with a stick-on temperature indication strip, but it doesn’t seem to do much and any actual reading occurred by pressing my thumb against it, so would show just body temperature anyway.
Comes with a lot of saline packs (this shouldn’t be used with ordinary table salt), instructions, and two tips. The instructions say there are 3 tips but I received just the two. They also refer to a “connecting pipe” for the valve button, but again this doesn’t seem to exist.
Instructions are to use “pure water or mineral water” and not tap water at a temperature between 37 and 40 degrees centigrade (lukewarm, basically). A little dip tab is included, which is supposed tell you if the temperature is in the right range (I couldn’t get this to work). Only use if you can breathe through both of your nostrils – but breathe through your mouth while using it. Blow your nose after and perhaps do some deep breathing.
This was my first nasal saline irrigation – the nozzle fitted ok, I needed to pump the valve button a bit to get it going, and a fair bit of the water came straight back out (perhaps this will improve with experience) but enough went through and down the other nostril to do the job. I have a cold, and I did feel the benefit in terms of decongestion and breathing. I understand that regular irrigations can also help maintain sinus health – and there are many options on Amazon for extra saline sachets once the 60 supplied run out – so this will become part of my regular sinus health maintenance once I get rid of this cold!
