Nasal Wash, Sampler Kit

To start with, I am a person who had to have a really really expensive (very risky) surgery for a sinus issue. This nasal rinse system is fantastic. I used it after my surgery because I like how you regulate the pressure of the water through your nose. For starters, I prefer having to "place" the end of this nasal flusher gently to the nostril so it forms a complete gentle fit versus having to put the end of a ceramic neti pot spout up into the nostril to get the same seal/fit. If it is gently placed, there is no "closing" of the top as talked about in other reviews. I can see where you would want to apply pressure like that after using the ceramic neti pot, because you do have to have some minor pressure to fit the ceramic pot spout up into the nostril. However, that pressure is just not needed with this washer. My 7 and 9 year old were able to have complete success within 2 tries of using the nasopure system for the first time and faithfully use it daily either in the shower or over the sink. I am a former ceramic neti pot user and find this system so much more relaxing to use with better results. For the person who wrote about getting water down the back of their throat...not sure how that only happens with just this product. The "k" sound needed to close the throat off while using a neti pot is the same action used for this product. Guessing if it happens with this, probably is happening with the neti pot as well? Also, there is no need to "have to" buy their saline packets as someone mentioned. The packets are there as a matter of convenience and a choice option. As a matter of fact all mine are still in a drawer for travel situations. I continue to use the very economical pharma grade salt you can purchase in bulk and mix my own solution. I use 1/4 tsp of neti pot salt to the 8-oz nasopure bottle of water...and it is perfect for our families needs. A spoon from Cuisipro Odd Size Measuring Spoon Set is a great addition to this washer (you can get these spoons on Amazon). I store my spoon with the salt, then all that needs to be done is to put in 2 scoops of salt in the bottle and fill with water to the fill line. Equally Himalayan Institute (also on Amazon) sells bulk pharma salt and one of their products comes with a measuring spoon within the jar of salt (which I also have). Both run about the same price so if you don't want the extra spoons in your kitchen, get the jar of replacement salt with the spoon in it and after that just purchase the neti salt that is packaged without the spoon at the lower price. All in all this is one of the best investments we have made as a family. One member travels quite a bit in and out of the airports..and with that all the crud from everywhere comes home too. When I consider what it has cost us in the past for medications and co-pays to be at the doctor all the time with sinus infections, allergy issues or upper respiratory crud...yah....now, I am a firm believer in the proactive habit of nasal cleansing as a preventative measure for so many areas in our well-being.

I bought this product as a recommendation by my allergy doctor. I am allergic to everything that’s environmental, so my nose is always itching and running. I was very scared of using it because I thought it was gonna hurt a lot. I was very surprised at how easy it is to use this. The instructions are great, it tells you exactly what to do and how to do it. Beware, it can get very messy, but the feeling of a clean and hydrated nose is really the best feeling. This is perfect for you who’s is suffering with allergies and stuffy nose. One thing to know is that you will need to replace the bottle every 3 months or so, so keep that in mind. Also, it’s very important that you read all the instructions, because if you don’t do it right it will hurt.

I have had sinus issues all my life, including allergies and general stuffed-up nose issues. I have had to have surgery in the past to deal with my problems. After reading all the glowing reviews, I wanted to give the Neti pot a try. I figured that at the least it couldn't hurt. I picked this version mainly for the design. I know myself well enough to know that if something is inconvenient, then I probably won't keep up at it. I wanted a pot that was easy to use and that I could use in the shower. This design is perfect on both accounts. You don't have to do that awkward head-back bend thing to get the solution into your nasal passage. I buy the pre-measured saline mixtures, and they pour easily into the pot. I have been using it regularly for about a year now. I have heard all sorts of wonder stories about Neti pots, that they are life-changing, etc ... the real result is that it does do a nice job cleaning out the nasal canal, but that is about it. Neti pots aren't magic. I still have to take allergy medicine in the season. I still have some issues with a stuffed-up nose. But the Neti pot does make things a little bit easier, and has become part of my normal routine. I recommend the Neti pot, but as with most things like this it is best not to set your expectations too high.

This is a product for anyone who likes to have a nasal washout each morning.The crooked neck makes it easy with no mess. Nothing but praise for this. I bought it to replace the one I already had which developed a pinhole after 4 years daily use.

Molto utile ma troppo caro per una bottiglia di plastica

ممتاز

Good delivery, easy use, perfect for beginners such as myself. Highly recommend it. Buy enough salt as there is not much in the pack

The product is expensive for what it is & the margins against manufacturing must be extremely high, given its essentially a plastic bottle. However, very good for the purpose its intended for & much better then a standard neti pot. No awkward bending & any unused saline solution can be stored & reused within a reasonable time period. I have a SinuPlus Elite also which is effective for purpose but much more expensive (circa £1115). The NasoPure is a good, cheaper option though relatively expensive in its own way. I use mine with Himalayan Institute Neti Pot Salt
