Neti
Pot
The practice of nasal
irrigation, known as Neti, has been used by practitioners of Yoga and Ayurveda
in India for hundreds, if not thousands, of years. The nasal passages are lined
with a thin layer of mucus and are one of our body's first lines of defense against
disease. Let's face it, we deal with a lot more pollution than we used to. Nasal
rinsing helps keep this layer of mucus moist, clean and healthy. Most sinus problems
fall into three categories: acute, chronic and allergenic (which could be both
acute and chronic). Acute sinus problems often come about from seasonal allergies,
a cold, or the flu, and are seen as a temporary condition. Chronic sinus problems
are often long term, quite possibly from allergies, climate changes, or from a
completely unknown source. For long periods of time the sinuses seem to be inflamed
and filled with mucous. Allergen sinuses are simply that - from allergies which
can be a temporary condition if it's a summer airborne allergy or chronic if it's
an undiagnosed allergy. Headaches and sinus pressure can be associated with all
three categories. Whichever category describes you best, you will find sinus relief
after using a nasal pot. For best results, use the nasal pot every day. Hand made in the USA. 100% Ceramic.
