I think I've done something similar to a neti pot. Only once and a long time ago!
Intesting about yoga!
Yes! I swear by this for my sinus issues! it took a while to get used to it but its now second nature.
Yes, and love my neti pot!
@@Hila_at_Home same with me :)
I’ve been so scared to try it but now I’m tempted! Gotta give it a try
I’m currently using the Neti Pot because I have Covid, I’ve been using one bottle full 3 times a day to flush out my sinuses it’s really helping with the post nasal drip which has been causing an annoying hacking cough. Between the Neti Pot and gargling with distilled salt water I feel much better.
I am so glad you are feeling better with neti use! Research suggests it shortens the symptoms of COVID!
I tried to use the pot and it wont come out the other nostril and it feels painful. Any tip?
@@hanoofalajmi23You need to do sutra neti to unblock the passage. You must be very careful insert the rubber very slowly and over a period of weeks little by little if necessary. You may get some blood out of the nostril initially but it will stop after you do it 4- 5 times.
It's so crazy how one area can affect your whole body. I've been wanting to use a Neti Pot but was always nervous. Thanks for showing us how to use it.
My pleasure. This rinse is much less intimidating than the traditional pot.
Thank you for demo. Coincidentally, I bought this kit the other day and have a suggestion: go slowly. The first time I tried it I squeezed the bottle too hard which led to pressure and discomfort so it took me a couple of days to try again. The second time I decided to go slowly, easing the water in and it worked much better, I used more water and had no discomfort. BTW, five minutes later I unexpectedly had some drops run down from my nose that hadn't drained so keep some Kleenex handy.
Good video. I share it with those new to a Neti pot. I've been doing it regularly since 2007. Can't imagine my life without it. I especially used it rather aggressively when I had colds. Helps tremendously with the symptoms. Also great for low humidity environments and during high allergens. I'll use it until the day I die.
Thanks for sharing! It is so helpful for colds, allergies, and research suggests that it reduces the risk of corona viruses and lessens the symptom! Now is a great time to start.
I have terrible allergies at the end of august into September so I decided to start using a Neti pot daily this year and it has been a game changer.
Nice video. Many of my patients have benefited from nasal irrigation.
Saline irrigation can also be performed with a medial irrigation rinse that can contain topical antibiotics. This is prescribed by otolaryngologists frequently with patients that have long term sinus issues.
That is super interesting!! Thanks for sharing. :)
They finally sent me to an ENT doctor and after the Prednisone shrunk my nasal polyps I’m adding Budesonide 0.5 mg/ 2mL to my nasal rinse.
After 4-5 yrs I was able to breathe out of my nose again but it was short lived. I can see the polyp with a pen light. Hopefully there’s something else besides surgery.
I need to give this another try! I tried it years ago but found it difficult, thanks for explaining it so well!
let me know how it goes, Brie :)
I have a few family members who have serious sinus issues year round. This is very helpful and I'll share with them. Thanks Boss!
Thank you so so much. :) I hope this benefits them!
Neti pots are so great! I can't say enough good things about them.
I totally agree!
I've used this brand of nedipot kit as recommended by my pulmonologist. What a difference after I used it! I thought I was breathing completely before using it but I wasn't! I felt like I was given a new sinus cavity after rising for the first time! I've had lifelong sinus issues and have had reduction of problems since I have been rinsing them. Your video was so informative and gave such easy instructions. Thank you so much!!
It really makes a huge difference for me too! I am glad you found the video helpful :)
How many times a day do you use it ?
I just had sinus surgery and my doctor recommended I do this every day 2x a day. It definitely feels like a burden. I'm gonna try to tough it out as long as I can. Definitely feels like your refreshed after doing the flush
I'm addicted. At night I use a warmer solution and that de-stress and relaxes. For reference, I use a neti pot. Don't blow your nose to hard. I would be even more careful because you might irritate post-op healing.
I am a yogi, also a yoga instructor, and am suffering terribly from allergies this spring. East Tennessee is terrible for high pollen levels. I take allergy shots, which have helped tremendously, until now. What you said about the link between sinus inflammation with pain, fatigue and depression are spot on. I have been so tired, achy and unhappy since the flare-up. I’ve heard that a neti pot is helpful. I will be heading to the drug store tomorrow and trying. Thanks for sharing your time and talent to demonstrate the proper use. It’s very helpful and appreciated.
My pleasure, Karri! Let me know how it goes. Also, I think you would enjoy my app www.AnnSwansonWellness.com/app
UPDATE please
If you truly have allergies, washing your nose out only works for about 2 minutes until you get back outside and your mucous membranes are exposed to the pollen again. That sets off a chain reaction on a cellular level and the problem comes right back. This will be essentially useless for you.
Hi Ann - I’m in your Tai Chi class for arthritic seniors.
I had sinus surgery a few years ago to correct a breathing problem. Dr recommended the Neil Med wash.
I’ve been using it daily for a few years now and it really helps my breathing. Nasal passages stay clear and moist and I breath much more freely.
Hi! So great to hear from you and I’m glad it’s helping :)
I’ve used it when my sinuses flair up. But you apply it differently. I squeeze the bottle hard and it shoots a water jet up my nose to rinse everything out. Doesn’t hurt but your eyes will water up quite a bit while it’s blowing solution out the other nostril. Seems to work pretty good.
Helps with my post nasal drip.. It's such a relief..
This helps so much especially during winter times when my nose gets all stuffy. I also use to use it before running to help boost the breathing during performance. It's awesome! 😍 Nice video!
So important during cold season.... or a respiratory pandemic! Glad you liked it :)
I’m very happy I found this channel. I just ordered my Neti pot and salt solution on Amazon now and will be coming back to this video and doing everything verbatim.
Comment again and let us know how it goes :)
Yes, I have. First time today, infact. What prompted me to buy one was the fact that I was having a uncontrollable allergy fit in a Walmart just down the street from my house. At times I can barely see when my allergies are the worst. I think you call it hay fever. I quickly dashed for a Neti pot & headed home. Ran, what you call two bottles through each nostril. I have the blue one that looks like a genie's lamp. My sinus cavity seems clearer & free of all those itchy things that make my eyes water and nose run. For a little break, at least. Still feels congested. Good to know you can do it multiple times a day. I hope this will help turn some things around with these alergie fits that I have.
Thanks for sharing, Jake. Neti really helps me with my allergies :)
I used a netipot and my ears hurt after and sometimes during. I couldn’t get any solution to come out my right nostril.
I tried the one your using for the first time and I couldn’t understand what the straw was for and my ears popped or hurt while gently blowing my nose.
I can see now I was using it like the netipot and holding my head to far side ways.
That was a good how too review. I will try it your way next.
With the netipot nothing would come out my right nostril so my allergy doctor from U-Mass got me this one through insurance and though I wasn’t doing it correctly I had a lot of junk come out on both sides, that’s a first.
Thank you for your time
Thanks for sharing. Yes, it’s definitely safer if you avoid tilting your head for that reason!
I just ordered this neti pot. I will try very soon. Reading the comments motivated me!
Hope you like it!
I am a fellow neti pot user! I use the tea pot shaped one, but I agree that the leaning over is not the best for my body. Thanks for sharing this! And reminding me that I should get a new neti pot!
Yes, good to replace them. Try the sinus rinse and see if you like it better :) Let me know.
Thank you for your clear explanation of the process and tidbits about the nasal cavity. Keep up the good work
I have a neti pot but never used it. I know crazy to have it and not use it. I was just scared but this video helped answer all my questions. Thanks for sharing!
It’s not crazy! They are super intimidating, but worth it. So glad it helped :)
The neilmed sinus rinse has been a huge lifesaver for sinus relief. So happy I came across this product. Thank you for these tips on how to use this sinus relief too, very helpful.
My pleasure. It has been a lifesaver for me recently too!
Do you use it daily ?
So true! Having sinus pain just hits harder then any other pain for me… it makes my teeth hurt… head hurt… face hurt… and can’t breathe! Going to give the neti pot another try!
It is the worst. Let me know how it goes! I have a free step-by-step guide here to follow... www.annswansonwellness.com/immunity You can also do it along with me with the video, but it will take a little longer for the water to come out your other nostril. I fast forwarded it on mine because it was boring to watch :)
5 minutes to get to the point.
I've always wondered how to use this! Super helpful! Thanks for breaking it all down for us! :)
I hope you give it a try!
I have recommended these to my patients very often. They work so well. Great demonstration!
Thanks. I am glad you found the demo clear and helpful! Feel free to send to your patients, Dr. Sno :)
@@AnnSwansonWellness Will do!
Glad someone could give instructions since they can only include directions for all there other products
I'm from India proud to our ancestors
Yes! So many great practices that have stood the test of time and science come from India.
I’ve always been curious about Neti pots but never knew much about them. Thank you so much for all of the amazing info in this video ♥️
Of course! I am so glad you found this helpful.
I had a sinus once and this was the first thing that was recommended
Yup! More and more doctors are recommending neti for sinus infections to keep the usage of antibiotics down. Always good to check with your doctor when you have a sinus infection like that :)
Did the neti help?
Putting things in my nose really weirds me out for some reason but I understand how beneficial this can be. Do you have any tips to get over the fear of using a neti pot?
Great question, Sabrina. I think that the squirt bottle in the rinse is a lot less intimidating (and quicker) than the neti pot. Beyond that, try it with someone as a fun activity. And/or do it with my video so you don't feel alone :) Let me know how it goes.
When you experience the results, you will immediately get over your fear
I have a love for Neti Pots. I developed alergies about 5 years ago, and use cleanse my sinuses as needed during allergy season.
It makes a big difference for my allergies too!
thanks queen i have the worst sinusitis right now and have always been scared to try it but i’m gonna
I've been using Neil Med nasal system for over a decade. Have had 3 nasal polyp surgeries since 2004. My sinuses are happy. It's tough when traveling (I use prescribed normal saline - 1000ml lasts me 2.5 days flushing 2x a day) so I have started the Neil Med spray bottle when It's too late or if I'm on the road.
I am so glad that the Neil Med helps you breathe better! It makes a world of difference for me too :)
I have never tried this, but now I will.
So happy to hear!
I have used the Neti Bottle but only when I’ve been down with a sinus infection. This video was very helpful. We have a wood stove and sometimes it really affects my sinuses. I hope this helps.
I am sick with nose and throat congestion, and this cleared about 50% of the congestion and allowed me to finally sleep. I used about 1/2 a bottle per nostril, and lots of the solution dripped out my mouth rather than nose.
I like the way you say the word “with” specially at the end of a sentence.
I can't tell if this is a weird compliment, an ASMR obsession or a condescending remark...
I have used a neti pot for years. It works great. I have the conventional one that looks like a teapot. And the water goes to the ear sometimes. I will try your method. Although I do not like the plastic containers. Boiling the water is new for me. It makes sense. I use regular salt that does not contains iodine. I use it twice a day when I have a cold and I feel miserably congested. Otherwise, I use it a few times a week or as needed. Thanks for your video.
Thanks for sharing! It is super helpful, especially for colds. I strongly recommend either distilled water or previously boiled (5-10 min) water. I had a friend in India who got a horrible infection from Neti water that wasn't boiled! The regular Neti pot is fine if it works for you, but this version is more pleasant and better on the ears if that becomes a problem.
Yes!! Very true 👍 neil med really helped me, with my mucous. I used it twice a week.
Oh I have sinus but never used the neti pot, I am definitely going to try it . Thanks for this amazing video
You’re welcome 😊 I hope this helps you to use a sinus rinse!
I have been using the bottle for years. When you have a cold and have large nostrils, rotate the nozzle in your nose slowly as you rinse. You will catch a lot more "gunk" as you pressure-wash your entire cavity, not just a single area.
Thanks for sharing!
I"ve never heard of Neti Pot... I used to suffer from sinuses for years. I just couldn't breathe. When I left my family home, it just stopped.
Breathing is so important! If you ever get stuffed up again, maybe you will come back to this video and try a neti :)
Your family home could've been subject to hidden mould. You would be surprised how that could affect your breathing and when you move out your breathing problems and bad flu symptoms just disappear.
So helpful! I have a neti pot in my bathroom right now, but I've been too overwhelmed with how to use it, so thank you!!
Yay I hope this encourages you to use it again!
Great explanation! I find the neti pot a little fiddly and messy initially, but as someone who's had lifelong blocked sinuses, it's been one of the best things to clear them up! (Just be careful of a gush of saline water dribbling out about 15 minutes later.... LOL!)
Haha I know the feeling! It has happened to me an hour later going into a downward dog teaching yoga! That is where the rinse does better than the pot.... less gets trapped up there to the side. Plus, blowing at the end is key lol.
@@AnnSwansonWellness ha! Even after blowing as much I can, I still get delayed dribbles.. like I have hidden pockets up there 😂
@@AnnSwansonWellness When I used distilled water I didn't warm it should I see a doctor? Please respond.
@@Future_Hendrix The warmth of the water is more for comfort. Distilled water is safe. However, you should always see a doctor if you have any symptoms or questions about your health.
@@AnnSwansonWellness I meant boil it but thank you
Great info - really liked the demo. My husband uses this type of Neti Pot too. I've never done it myself!
Maybe this will help you try when you feel like you need it :)
Thanks for this. Very reliant on afrin to sleep and want to stop using it. I'll have to bring this up to my Dr. Thanks!
Definitely talk to your doctor about it! I use this in the morning or afternoon for best results because when I do it at night before bed, sometimes I get a little post nasal drip from it
I’ve been using a neti pot and I thought I had to completely tilt my head that would be better and after watching your video, recognizing that that is why my ears always feel worse like an ear infection 🤦♀️
I'm so glad it helped! I used to tilt my head too, but I find this method so much more pleasant, especially for the ears
I was debating !!!about using this Neilmed my Dr recommend,your demonstration was great I will give it another try.. thanks
I hope it worked out!
Thank you. This was so useful to learn.
Thank you Hila! So glad you found it helpful
Do a video on cleaning the bottle.
I love you Ann Swanson🥦🥦🥦🥦🥦🥦
Very good video thanks for sharing. I did notice you didn’t cover the care and cleaning of the bottle after use. I think that is important, would please cover that part for us?
Great question! I let the bottle dry completely after use on a drying rack and then I rinse with the distilled or previously boiled water before use. You are supposed to recycle and replace these every 3 months
Thank you very much for this video as I’m sure my ENT dr is going to start me on this. Very helpful!!!
WOW!!! The 1st half of your video is VERY informative & interesting!!! Definitely going to try the sinus rinse! And subscribing to your channel!
Teresa, so glad to hear you enjoyed it. I look forward to more of your comments :)
Have you used a neti pot before? No, first time I've come across it. Very well-explained topic.
I hope it give it a try!
Love this Ann, can definitely see some great benefits with Neti Pot. Cheers
Absolutely!
It's amazing how much this can help. I should pull ours out.
Yes, it is amazing. Do make sure you aren't sharing with anyone though. Let me know if you try again!
The first time I used my Neti Pot, I made my friend stay on the phone with me, it was so funny! I am going to try what you have recommended it looks easier.
haha well next time you do a neti, do it with me by watching the video!
Yes I use the type that you use
Yes! I use them and recommend them for so many things! They are wonderful and help so many different issues :)
It really helps me with my allergies!
I have Covid and my left ear is sooo clogged From all of the nose blowing. I’m taking pseudoephedrine to try to reduce all of the inflammation to my sinuses and my Eustachian tubes. This video is super helpful and I’m going to go with this brand as opposed to a tea pot style to protect my ears. Thanks so much for sharing!
I am glad it is helpful! Definitely consult your doc if you have any increasing symptoms. There is some research that suggests neti could be helpful for covid: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7193539/ I am definitely doing my neti! Hope you feel better soon. Stay safe.
Sounds miserable! :( I hope you’re better, Nikki. 🙏🏻❤️
@Officer Kenny
You’re a goof!!! 🤣🤣
I love my neti pot! Thank you for making a video I can reference!
You are so welcome!
I have a couple kids with environmental allergies and the Neti Pot helps so much especially after exposure.
It really helps with allergies, that is how I originally was introduced to the neti pot!
Thanks for showing us how to use Neti Pot and why we might want to
My pleasure!!
Thank you for the information. Never heard of this solution but I will try. I'm sometimes afraid my sinus issues might be mistaken for a symptom of Covid-19.
Could be so its good to get a test if you are unsure. However, research suggests this could help prevent COVID and it has shown to lessen symptoms of corona viruses
I feel like that right now
Did it work?
@@doubtfuldrawing Flushing through my nose I did not like it at all, but it did help temporarily. The problem resolved itself after I lost 35 pounds. The weight had something to do with mucus unable to drain properly. My doctor agreed. Thanks for asking.
Covid left me sinus infections 😢
This is good stuff ❤
I love the neti pot it helps me so much!
Isn't it great?! I also love it!
Thanks for showing us how to use Neti Pot
You are most welcome
Part 2: I was using the water from my Brita Filter and warming it in the microwave.
My allergy doctor said that’s not a good idea.
Since my nose has not got any better I’ll try it her way which is your way.
Definitely listen to your allergy doc on that one!
I know Nicky is a big fan of the Neti pot! I'll keep it in mind for next time. Thanks for this video Ann!!
My pleasure :)
I’m always learning new things watching your videos so thank you for bringing us this information.
My pleasure, Carline :)
Prior to using netti pot I always had a sinus infection once or twice a year. Now using the netti pot twice a day for 3 yrs I never had a sinus infection or allergy problem. I use cold tap water and salt packet each time.
I am so glad you have found it helpful! It has changed my life too.
I beat 30 years of migraine with this
That's amazing! It really can improve multiple aspects of health
Wait so migraine came from sinus?
Your video was a great help. I just got started with the traditional netipot and it was absolutely painful (in my case). Ill try this product and see how it goes. Thanks.
The traditional neti pot isn't as pleasant of an experience. I hope you come back to this video to help while you practice with the Neil Med and let me know how it goes, Sweta!
Thanks for the graphic how to... I was told about the neti pot for my sinus problem and found this. I think that is better and I'm gonna have to see if that helps my breathing and sleep. It's bad enough I'm using a nasal mask CPAP.
I used kładovska salt. I got it in Poland. And used distilled luke warm water. My nose has been running a lot since then. Seems to be helping though.
Never used it before. Thanks for showing us
You’re welcome 😊
Looks a great way to deal with the symptoms. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure!!
Thank you 🙏🏼 for posting. I know it’s not crazy complicated but I was confused by the instructions. Now I’ll be able to use mine correctly.
Thank you Samantha! I'm glad this video helped you :)
Thanks for the informations I just ordered neti pot on Amazon hopefully it works
I hope it helps! You may want to come back to this video to practice with me or download my step by step guide www.annswansonwellness.com/immunity
Hello dear ann super performans bravo
Watched your video, I did not know about distilled water.
I had COVID last month and still have horrible sinus issues. I can’t handle it anymore. I’m gonna be a big girl and try the Nettie pot for the first time!
Good for you! New research has shown that neti helps reduce time of illness for covid, so you might find some extra relief!
You explained this very well. Great video!
Glad it helped! Thank you so much Briana.
Very timely content!
Glad to hear it!
Wow I've never seen a demo before and i would have used cold tap water..is this better than using claridin..I see the walgren ads all the time on TV but I don't think it's for Neilmed
This is definitely better than Claritin! And please do use distilled water... I have heard some horror stories of people using water straight from the tap.
Great video! My BIL uses his every day.😀
So awesome!!
Thank you!
I've never tried it but that looks so interesting, will definitely try it soon! 😊
It's so good! Let me know what you think. :)
Great advice, thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Steps start at 4:15
Super interesting! Thanks
My pleasure :)
Thank you Ann, I loved the face about the billiard ball... fascinating!
Isn't it?! So much is happening within our sinuses!
I have the worst sinus infection right now and I'm miserable 😩 my sister got me a NeilMed sinus rinse so I watched this video so I can breathe better
I hope it helped!
Thanks. Have subscribed.
Awesome, thank you and welcome, Noel!
Thank you for your video it helped me
Glad to hear that!
