A friend of mine gave me one of these, for the sinus problems I've had recently. Before I use it, I'd like to hear from some others who have already, in case there are any tips I should be aware of!
Thanks,
Gayle
 
Way to go, killchar. A neti pot is a super thing.

I have one and have been told to use it thus: fill it with water at blood temperature and add about a half a teaspoon of salt. Obviously use it over a sink or basin (or open ground) and tilt your head so that the w ater runs easily out of whichever nostril it's not being poured into. Pour slowly. It's possible at first that you may be bunged up and the water won't come out. Try tilting your h ead differently if this happens. When you finish, block one nostril at a time with your thumb and blow gently to clear out the water that remains (and often some mucous as well.) Now this is going to sound really really yucky but one of the most satisfying things when you're using the neti pot is when gollops of mucous come out of your nostrils! (sorry) Then you know it's working. I was told to use it only once a day, preferably in the morning.

Enjoy!

Hello there,

I suffer with bad sinuses. Could you please tell me where I may be able to get one of these Neti Pots?

Thanks

I have never used one as I do not have a sinus problembut my yoga teacher swears by it. His wife had sinus problems for years - it took him a long time to persuade her to use it but the effects were immediate when she started using it and she hasn't stopped. I like the idea of it as salt and water can't hurt and is cleansing - much better than popping a pill when your sinuses trouble you.

So Gayle, I'd say, start using it and let us know!
 
I was given mine in India - it's a plastic one. But I believe you can buy them from the Sivananda yoga people.
 
Hi Nisha,

Try the Yoga Matters website under yogi health and hygiene; you'll find advice and a range of neti pots.

Here's a slew of them:

But you can google it yourself, there seem to be plenty to choose from. Here is the one my friend got for me:

I think she picked it up from either Trader Joe's or WholeFoods.

Thanks for all your replies, I shall try it in the AM and return with a full report!
 
Hi Josh and Killchar,

Thanks for the replies. I'm going to get one soon and give it a try!

just wanted to add - my hubby loves these - they clear his sinuses up in the wee spring time when he has issues...

also - you can get them from the health store - i think i saw them in my organic market too...

Good Morning All

I used the neti pot this morning, it wasn't hard at all. I used 1/2 tsp kosher sea salt dissolved in 8oz of warm tap water for my solution. Getting my head tilted in the right way took a few tries, and it did run down my throat until I tilted my head forward. And yes, Sunanda, it was a treat to see all that flushed out! The flow wasn't steady the whole time, there were a few times when the flow dribbled to nothing and I had to swallow/tilt/relax until the flow returned. The instructions that came with mine also had some exercises to follow-up with, one was to hang your head upside down for a few seconds, and then come back up. When I did this, I was surprised at how much more drained out! Then they recommend alternating toe touches, which didn't seem to do much for me, but maybe it did. I feel about the same, except clearer in the head and less pressure around my eyes.
I'm going to try for this every morning this week. I'll let you all know how it goes!
