Overview

NASAL SALINE IRRIGATION What is nasal saline irrigation. Nasal saline irrigation, often done with a neti pot, is a non-medicated alternative that can be used as an additional treatment to relieve nasal congestion from allergies or upper respiratory tract infections. To perform nasal saline irrigation, wash and completely dry the neti pot or a similar device before use. Prepare the saline rinse with preferably distilled or sterile water. Lean over a sink and tilt your head sideways and downward to keep the saline rinse from flowing into your mouth. Breathe through your mouth while inserting the neti pot into your upper nostril so the saline can drain from the other nostril.

How it works:

Direct cleansing, removal of inflammatory mediators, improved mucociliary function
