What is Nasal Irrigation?
Nasal Irrigation is simply washing your nose with a warm salt solution to promote muco-ciliary clearance by moisturizing the nasal cavity and by removing encrusted material. Nasal irrigation is a simple, inexpensive treatment that relieves the symptoms of a variety of nasal and sinus discomfort, reduces use of medical resources, and could help minimize antibiotic resistance. This procedure is something you can do at home and may offer similar relief to that of decongestants, antihistamines, antibiotics, and steroid nasal sprays without serious adverse effects.

Warm saline nasal irrigation is:

you can do at home: so you make fewer visits to medical doctors. Just like an experienced physician cleans your nose at your home!

an inexpensive method: all what you need are the nasal irrigator, buffered salt and warm water!

simple to use: both adult and children can use it smoothly ( depends on different model of nasal irrigators).

comfortable: Most find it a soothing and pleasant practice once they try it, especially Sanvic pulsatile nasal irrigation.

effective: Treatment guidelines in both Canada and the United States now advocate use of nasal irrigation for all causes of rhino-sinusitis and for postoperative cleaning of the nasal cavity.

safe: rare documented  serious adverse effects. Perform according to the user's guide is recommended for safe utilization.

the way you can save health and enjoy your life: minimize the medications necessary means you can stay away from the probable side effects of decongestants, antihistamines, antibiotics or steroids.

Nasal irrigation can:

clean the mucus, crust and other debris from your nasal passages.

moisturize and decongest the nose to improve air flow. Salty water pulls fluid out of the swollen membranes of your nose, this makes breathing easier and helps open the sinus passages.

improve muco-ciliary clearance movement. It helps the nose work better and improves nasal drainage.

remove biofilm in chronic rhino-sinusitis to reduce the use of other medical resources( including medications or operations), and make fewer visits to physicians.

improve the effectiveness of the nasal steroid sprays if warm saline nasal irrigation is performed before using the steroid spray. The steroid spray will reach deeper into the nose and sinuses after cleansing and decongestion.
