Doss it helps with polypoidal mucosal thickening in maxillary sinus???
Is it safe to use when sick or should I wait till I recover.
Can I use celtic salt?
Just ordered off your link. I really like the design and use of gravity to flow it into your nose. I am looking forward to flushing out my sinuses. I have intense upper left sinus pain for several days and feel that your nettie will get them cleaned out. I will use non-idiodized Himilayan pink salt.
Awesome, thank you! Please only use common household non-iodized salt you should not use Himalayan pink salt to saline rinse. Sending awesome vibes!
@@AbrahamThePharmacist what is the problem with using Himalayan pink salt? I just want to understand.
Did it work.👍👍
@@choister1973 yes it worked and cleared out my sinuses and reduced the sinus headaches. Ice do it every morning.
Hi.. does this nasal rinse cure the chronic flu smell in the nose ?
will that help sinusitis headaches?
Is it good for sinus patient?
Can this be used with a nebulizer?
Can I use Food salt (Nacl) ?
I don't have powdered salt at home.
Is it okay to use mineral water?
Hi. Just got my Neti to try and clear post nasal drip problem. Your video is an excellent demo but when using find that one side ( L-R) works exactly as you show but on the other side ( R-L) the I’m not getting the flow through . Any thoughts or suggestions please ? Paul
Thank you for reaching out Paul - glad to hear that you found the video helpful for using your Neti pot. It's not uncommon to experience differences in flow between the left and right nostrils when using a Neti pot.
Here are a few suggestions that might help improve the flow on the side where you're experiencing difficulties:
Nasal Congestion: Check if there's any congestion or blockage in the nostril that's affecting the flow.
Head Positioning: Ensure that your head positioning is consistent for both nostrils. Sometimes a slight tilt or adjustment in head position can make a difference in flow. Experiment with different angles to find what works best for you.
Breathing: Focus on your breathing during the process. Taking slow, deep breaths through your mouth can sometimes help facilitate the flow of the saline solution through the nostrils.
Adjustment of the Neti Pot: Try adjusting the angle at which you hold the Neti pot. Tilting it slightly more or less can sometimes affect the flow, so experiment with different positions to see if that helps.
Nasal Cycle and Vasomotor Rhinitis: Keep in mind that the nose has a nasal cycle where every 2-6 hours, it rotates. One side congests while the other side relaxes. This is an autonomic process and can affect the flow during Neti pot usage. Additionally, conditions like vasomotor rhinitis can also impact nasal airflow.
Deviated Septum: If you suspect a deviated septum, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. A deviated septum can indeed affect nasal airflow and may require specific techniques or interventions for effective use of the Neti pot.
If you continue to experience difficulties despite trying these suggestions, it might be helpful to consult with a healthcare professional or an experienced practitioner for personalized guidance.
Hope this helps and sending awesome vibes!
Question is it normal to have about an ounce of water come out of the nose you just had that tip connected to when done rinsing? A great video and thanks for the tip Saline at home.
Glad I could help and yes of course, not all the saline solution will go through the nasal passage so some may come back out of the nostril that the tip was inserted into.
Hey thanks for the great walk-through!
Quick Question: Why is the solution coming out of my mouth and not my other nostril?
Thank you for reaching out - glad to hear that you found the video helpful for using your Neti pot. It's completely normal for the water to come out of either nostril or even your mouth during the neti pot process.

@AbrahamThePharmacist Thanks so much for such a comprehensive response! I shall endeavour to apply the various techniques as highlighted. Thanks for such a informative guide, this will help others too! Great Job
Can we do this for kids with swollen adenoids and allergy, is it safe or painful for them??
Mine came with a little thermometer but i couldn't figure out how to use it!
Hello, I have a quick question can distilled water be used?
Yes
Just wondering if this will be viable using an equivalent quantity of coarse himalayan salt? Don't use conventional table salt or sea salt anymore in our household.
Get the pink salt
Other Neti pot tutorials suggest adding Iodine Drops in the solution. What’s your thoughts on this ?
Absolutely not a good idea with a neti pot - sending awesome vibes!
Can you use fine sea salt?
Great question - Always best to stick to non-iodized powdered salt for the saline rinse - sending awesome vibes!
Thank you! I just bought it and it's so easy to use. 🙏💗🙏🌟👍😊👍 P.S. Once I'm out of salt sachets, where do I buy more?
Sending awesome vibes! You can make your own as explained in the video
I was diagnosed with chronic sinusitis and the doctors recommend I use this device for 3 months, how often do you suggest I use this in a day?
Also, can this clear up the growths in my ethmoid sinuses?
Did this work for you. Can you smell n breath better. I have bad sinus issues. I really struggle to smell n taste my food. Hoping this works.
My sinuses are blocked but whats stopping my breathing through the nose is actually swollen nasal passages. Will a neti pot still help?
The best non surgical thing to try is steroid spray. My ENT described it as basically an Inhaler for your nose. If you go see a doctor you can get the high strength stuff prescribed otherwise you can buy the low strength stuff over the counter (look up Flonase). I would say a neti pot will still help though.
The best thing I’ve found is using the Neti Pot to clear out my sinuses, jumping in a hot shower and then two sprays of steroid spray into each nostril. (Source years of nose and sinus issues) been doing that each morning for the last week and been getting more relief from it than just using either steroid sprays or neti pots separately
Did you ever try it out?
Does it do any damage to use cold water? I've found it feels a lot better with cold water.
Good question. As long as you have boiled the water and made your saline solution. You can then let it cool down to room temperature and use with our Neti pot sinus rinse bottle.
So we can’t use the water straight from the fridge that’s filtered
@@tarapooh99from what I have found even filtered water should be boiled and then cooled. There is a rare bacteria that can infect the brain if you don't do this. Or you could buy a bottle of distilled water and use that straight from the fridge.
Can i use this once a day. N how long can i use it for. Thank you
Yes and as long as you need it, after using it for a while you'll see what frequency works best for you - sending awesome vibes!
@AbrahamThePharmacist thank you. Really appreciate the advice. I'm bunged up a lot n can't taste or smell. I had surgery a good few years back cos my there was a build up of infected mucus in my cavities. It showed up on the brain scan I had for my boxing licence. If the neti pot don't work maybe I should see a specialist. Again thank you for the advice
Can we use dead sea salts or himalayan salt?
Please only use common household non-iodized salt you should not use Himalayan pink salt or sea salt to saline rinse. Sending awesome vibes!
Does this work even if it was just boiled water?
The salt is required as a saline solution is needed - sending awesome vibes
when taking prescribed steroid nasal sprays for allergic rhinitis, can you still use the neti pot? I guess do the netipot treatment first and then take the nasal spray?
Good question! After using the rinse, you may continue using your nasal spray as normal. You may even notice that they work better - sending awesome vibes
Can you use purified water?
To make your saline solution, mix one teaspoon of non-iodized powdered salt with 300 mL
(10 oz) of boiled and sterilized water. Do not use tap or faucet water to dissolve the mixture unless it has been previously boiled and cooled down. Allow the mixture to cool to a tepid temperature before using it with your Neti Pot Sinus Rinse Bottle to avoid overheating, damaging the device or scalding your nasal passage - hope this helps
@@AbrahamThePharmacistso no water bottle
Is it safe to do if you did rhinoplasty
Good question - Short answer yes but only once you have fully healed post rhinoplasty - sending awesome vibes
Abraham, I have allergic rhinitis and when my nose is blocked, nothing passes through. (Disgusting, I know. 😭) 🤣
Sending awesome vibes Angie and hope you're getting better!
@@AbrahamThePharmacistj
My problem too😢
I use fine sea salt will that work
Thanks for commenting, you should only use common household non-iodized salt for the saline solution. Sending awesome vibes!
So which salt is that when looking at ingredients they don't say non iodized or iodized how do you tell then
Does it hurt
Very easy and gentle to use - sending awesome vibes
Can I use iodised salt?
Do not use iodised salt. Save your money and avoid buying expensive salt sachets. With our Neti Pot Sinus Rinse Bottle, there's no need for them, as instructed in the video and instruction leaflet you can create your own saline solution at home using readily available non-iodized powdered salt we all have at home.
What's the problem with using iodised salt? @@AbrahamThePharmacist
Can i use pink salt
Please only use common household non-iodized salt you should not use pink salt to saline rinse. Sending awesome vibes!
@@AbrahamThePharmacist thank you... have a great 2024
Can I use rock salt?
With our sinus rinse bottle you can make your own saline solution at home using common household non-iodized salt (kosher salt with no additives is best) and save on costly salt sachets.
I accidentally filled the bottle with tap water, is it alright for me to rinse the bottle with boiled water afterwards ?
U need to boil water to kill bacteria or microbes living in tap water before use
Why use boiled water? And also, when I use my neti pot, it often just travels to my throat. Perhaps I’m using the wrong angle?
Boiling water kills harmful organisms, like bacteria so it's very important. It does take a little practice to do it right, hope my tutorial helps and sending awesome vibes!
is this okay for post nasal drip/catarrh? i've been dealing with this for about a year now
Saline nasal rinsing can definitely help with post nasal drip and catarrh - I go through it in more detail in our latest cough video. Sending awesome vibes!
Can I give Himalayan pink salt and use it?
Awesome, thank you! Please only use common household non-iodized salt (this includes non-iodized Kosher salt) you should not use Himalayan pink salt to saline rinse. Sending awesome vibes!
@@AbrahamThePharmacist Thank you for letting me know!
Is it really good for nose allergie?
Thanks for commenting saline nasal rinsing can help with nasal allergies - sending awesome vibes!
@@AbrahamThePharmacist i m from bd, my English is really bad, yesterday i used this as you said, i used from my right nose, but it was so painful, i feel like the water is going to my head, the was back of my head and on right side, i got scared a little bit, using left nose was good, this my first time doing it, but i didn't notice any changes, i sneez so much, and my nose is so itchy..
Is bottled purified water at room temperature safe to use? That's what i just used.
Thanks for the comment - You should always boil and sterilized the water you use to make your saline solution, then let it cool to a tepid temperature before using. Sending awesome vibes!
When i switch sides halfway into the process, i don't get the same velocity from the rinse, so it just drips at a slow rate
Great comment! The varying airflow from one nostril to the other during nasal irrigation with a neti pot is a normal part of the nasal cycle, influenced by factors like the current phase of the cycle, head position, congestion levels, and individual anatomy. It's essential to maintain proper technique, including using the correct saline concentration, tilting the head for drainage, and gently blowing the nose afterward. Persistent or severe congestion should prompt consultation with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. Sending awesome vibes!
Why non-iodised salt?
Iodized salt can irritate the nasal passages and should therefore not be used - sending awesome vibes!
It’s a bit unclear if you need to do a full bottle for each nostril? Or do
You do half a bottle on each nostril?
Ty!
@picspics2765 listen again. He said stop at half the bottle. When showing the other nostril he said with the remaining liquid…. And he shows what to do with it. I hope this helps you.
Half in one nostril the other half in the other. Sending awesome vibes!
I like using a netti pot, it drains all my boogers out when I’m sick 🤒
Sending awesome vibes thanks for sharing
I keep trying but I feel the water is blocked inside the nostril I’m pouring it, almost feeling like I’m chocking.
Sometimes a little bit will flow through the other nostril and even go to the back of the throat.
Could this be becuase the blockage is really bad? Will consistent rinsing help clearing it?
Not doing it right. Lean over more it shouldn’t be going through the throat too much. Also you may need to use 2 saline packets.
@@carzia_speed2235 thanks! I’ve managed to make it work now, though I still struggle at the beginning

I already did it with mixing tap water,now i am afraid 😢
How are you now?

Great information Abraham. I think it would be amazing if the Neti Pot,could come in 2 colours ( maybe Pink). So the girls don’t have to share with the boys? Or maybe the ends of the Neti pot could be coloured ?
Glad it was helpful and that's a great idea! We will get this implemented for the next batch we manufacture, sending awesome vibes!
That’s amazing! Thank you Abraham.Maybe a family size with 4 different coloured ends? Wishing you lots of success ❤️👍🏼
Next time do it in bath basin instead of kitchen sink 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Definitely a good idea. Sending awesome vibes!
Facial hair looking insane.
Greetings from India
