This product really works. I was having upper tooth pain due to my sinuses and thought I needed a root canal. After using this product my sinus passages feel so clean and I can breathe. No more tooth pain!
If you are severely congested (as with a sinus infection) you will have to repeat it after a pause to let the moisture get into the mucus. Yes, sometimes you will see the mucus come out! But the relief is so worth it!
I have used this (the bottle) for years. I have allergies & sinus problems. I do it about 3-4 days a week & it prevents me from getting sick. I honestly believe it's THE BEST invention ever! The bottle is supposedly more 'intense' than the pot. I use 2 salt packages because I don't think 1 is enough. It's so refreshing!
I know this is an older video... but I have used this for years! Tami’s so funny “I’m not seeing mucus...” when I first used it - it took 3 or 4 days, and I had a humongous piece of mucus slide out. And I was like 😱 “oh sh**! Where was that hiding?!” And once that was out... I felt so much better 👍
I tried this after my second sinus infection and....It was immediately effective and glops of mucus came out! Sorry for the gross description( lol). It is better than continues use of nasal sprays.This is my forever nasal decongestant. Thanks for the awesome video
Sometimes you don't have any snot come out. But many times you will have a big wad of snot come out. Also, If you have a sinus headache, many times you will have a little round bit of snot (sinus channel snot plug) once that comes out then your sinuses can drain. It is amazing how snot can be like a big bunch of glue. If you get it wet then it will finally dislodge from the nasal wall and come out. You can also, mix Colloidal Silver into the salt water and the Silver is a natural disinfectant. Over time you can heal your sinus infection problems with Colloidal Silver in the sinus rinse.
inflammation is generally the main reason you're clogged not "snot". while mucus can certainly build up, allergens and illness will cause the body to respond with an inflammatory process. if you're actually getting a lot of snot, there's probably something else going on in the environment. Snot will eventually leak out while your inflamed sinuses certainly will not...environments such as working without a respirator at a mineral extraction facility, smog, pollen bursts and fireplaces in the home will certainly induce mucus production along with inflammatory response. flushing colloidal silver up your nose won't hurt but it won't reduce inflammation and it certainly won't change the environmental conditions(or the body's ability to cope) which cause someone to have sinus issues.
U dont have to use a the whole bottle everytime. Just enough to where u get one side rinsed out. And u can do it again at night. No need to throw away the mixture m. A full mix should last a week. Also just wash bottle with soap and let air dry. No need to replace it every three months
Hi Kevin and Tammy, I had to use this sinus rinse for 4 months after I had my tear ducts reconstructed. I boiled a quart of water every day, let it cool and put it in the refrigerator for when I need to use it. Just a little tip… The rinse feels better if you heat the water in the microwave for about 15 seconds. By that I mean the saline rinse should be tepid too warm. It just feels more soothing. Thanks for all your reviews! I love your channel. XO Leslie
I’m having sinus nasal surgery (they are cleaning it out) next week... I can’t start doing it till after the surgery (right side is completely blocked) your video made me not as nervous and explained the process very well. Also appreciated it was your first attempt! Thank you.
What an awesome thing to share with us! I'm sure a lot of people are afraid to try something like this...and by showing how it's done and telling us how it felt....I bet you really helped everyone that had second thoughts of trying something like this !!:)
Not wrong. I was nervous. Held off for a couple weeks even though two doctors recommended a rinse. I was afraid of the pain I remember swimming in a pool and you get water in your nose. But there was non of that. Just the salty flavor from the solution. It did take longer than expected to get the excess saline solution out.
Yep. I was going to recommend distilled water or boiled and cooled water. You don't want to get any nasty fungus or infection from tap water being in your sinuses. But these sort of things are a great option! Glad you got some relief! Brett, PharmD hahah
Would you recommend this with plugged ears? They're not completely plugged as I CAN hear but I definatly feel theyre at least partially plugged. I was diagnosed recently with Euschian Tube Dysfunction (sorry for misspelling) and I dont want to make the situation worse!
This is amazing,I had another manufacture device. This is 100 % helpful and easy to use . Room temperature bottle water VS distilled water makes a world of difference .Easy and pleasant as possible.When the doctor said 3 times daily.I thought OH NO Impossible .Use half in one side then switch RELIEF ,Give your self treatments and time. Clean and air dry .There is no burning .Don’t swallow any thing that is in the back of your thought .Perhaps the pressure used with this product and bottle is better BE well
I have pretty bad asthma and allergies and This works WONDERS for me, during the change of seasons I use it every other day if not every day and it helps me so much.
I used this after sinus surgery, worked great to get all the old blood and clots out! Sorry if tmi, but the healing after sinus surgery is messy. This definitely helped a lot!
Thank you both for this video. It really helped me a lot. I too was nervous about using this and had put it off for a very long time. I recently had to visit an ear, nose and throat doctor for a problematic sinus condition and he emphasized how important it is to use this every day as part of my treatment so I knew it was time to get it done. Your video gave me the confidence to try it and I am very grateful to you both. The product does seem to offer some relief from the dryness that I feel in my sinuses.
Hi Kevin and Tami, thank you for another interesting video. Kevin I'm glad your sinus' cleared up. Just want to pass on this info: before I was first diagnosed as pre-diabetic nearly 7 years ago, one of the things I kept getting was re-occurring sinus infections and I learned that pre-diabetes and an increase incidence of sinus infections sometimes correlate (hope I'm saying that right). Anyway, you probably take care of yourself, but consider getting your blood sugar tested to be sure you're not pre-diabetic or diabetic.
It hurts my ears no matter how i do it and i get dizzy. But it helps me not get build-up in my throat, tickle in my throat at night, and I can actually breathe. It's helped me so much with allergies.
Kevin I like you're demo better than the company video. I just administered the Nelimed Rinse and the first squirt, I didn't use lukewarm distilled water. The cold water gave me a brain freeze. So, I put the filled bottle in the microwave for 20 seconds, replaced the cap & rinsed. Much better. Interesting that the tube doesn't touch the bottle bottom...right?
Thanks for showing this. I just bought one at Walmart under the direction of my lung doctor and he swears by these. He said the NeilMed sinus rinse ONLY, not something LIKE it, lol that one only. I just need some distilled or boiled water and it’s on!
Thanks, I have been seeing an ENT and they told me to do this twice a day. He also prescribed a medication to pour in but it was $400.00. Can't do that. He told me I could use Rhinocort spray twice a day. This is only for 4 weeks. I go back and see what happens. They did a CT also. I have had terrible headaches always. I am allergic to almost everything. Appreciate the video, it helps!
I actually use 1 full bottle for each side & it doesn’t burn b/c it’s Ph balanced to match your tears I prefer warm water & would rather boil the water, then let it cool down. The only time you shouldn’t use this is if you literally have a sinus infection!!! But other than that ... this thing is awesome. Definitely good for allergies, colds, flu & prevention of all these
Repeated use after a week u should see differences or i did atleast. I only use it during the harvest months. If u do not see results or suffer from bad allergies use two packets so the mixture becomes a hypertonic solution
Great video! I liked it a lot better than all of the professional ones, even. You guys made me feel a lot more at ease and you were even throwing jokes in here and there and that helped because I get nervous and didn't wanna screw it up. >.< I bought myself one of these kits years ago but after giving it two different tries, put it back in my closet and that's where it has stayed, collecting dust all these years, so this video was a nice refresher. I've been having these INSANE stomach issues caused by severe post nasal drip in which my nasal spray doesn't seem to be touching, so a walk-in doc suggested that I try out one of these and by luck, I still had mine! (Yay for not having to spend money! 😂😂😂) My first time trying out this rinse, I'd feel like I had been crying for HOURS after I had gotten done with a treatment and I couldn't STAND it, so I never stuck with it. This time, however, I feel just fine. 😕🤷 So weird.... No idea why, though. Last time I used distilled water and this time I used spring water, so I wonder if that had anything to do with it. 🤔🤷 Either way, I hope that this keeps up and that I get some kind of results because I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. 😑 Hope all is well with you guys.
Like all natural remedies, it works over time. I have been doing it for 2 months, what difference in breathing. It kills pathogens and helps with allergy a lot instead of taking the chemicals aka drugs that doctors want to give you. I do it whenever I shower, very easy and no mess.
Did you know that rinsing your mouth out with Warm table salt water or warm sea salt water is much safer and better then doing it with plain regular mouthwash because unlike mouthwash if you accidentally swallow some of the salt it's not going to cause any harm what so ever like mouthwash does because we do eat salt after all anyway almost everysingle day of it
Funny enough I have a sinus infection right now and I just got recommended this video under the new crumble cookie video! I've never tried anything like this, or a netti pot, i don't think those are common here but upon watching this video and hearing that it's not a nightmare of an experience I'm gonna go check if they do sell something like this at pharmacies here
Thank you, sincerely, for posting this. I've been pretty reticent to do this, but seeing someone else truly do it for the first time has already made me much more comfortable and confident. I know it's not easy sharing our more vulnerable, human moments with the world, but I really do appreciate it! Thanks again, and please take care. 👍
I have been using this for years my allergy doctor gave it to me. I have also used a Nettie pot. I think the bottle works better. I hope it works as well for as it does for me. Great review. Laura from Los Angeles
Thanks for the video! I've been told to use a saline rinse, but I've been really worried about it, even though friends have reassured me that they've done it. It doesn't look so bad, seeing you do it.
I'm so plugged right now, and that looks so satisfying that I kind of don't even care if it really cures it. I just want to breathe a little better and have something flush out whatever's up there or at least have the feeling that it's being flushed. Thanks for the demo
Again thank you so much for sharing. After waiting for 2 weeks I finally did it. Well we did it. I had the video going so the three of us kinda did it together. Your right it feels weird. I leaned way over and tilted my head. I did feel a cold sensation in my throat but no water ran down the back of my throat. Which that was what scared me most was having that drowning sensation. But that did not happen at all. And I guess it depends on how bad your sinus infection is. Because mine is I guess severe enough that it's yellow and green that's exactly what I had come out the very first time I used it. Thanks again keep you posted if it clears everything up.
Great video - but you really shouldn’t use bottled water. Not for nothing but we think b/c it’s bottled - it’s safe. Not so, many bottled water contain fluoride & you shouldn’t be shooting that up your nose. Distilled water or better yet (boiled water) that has cooled down
I used to for the first time today myself. Had this cough (from a cold I've had for a few days) and wasn't able to sleep. As they say use very filtered water or bottled water (or water that's been well boiled and then of course cooled off) but don't use tap water. So far, I like it better than my Neti Pot as it's easier to control and less uncomfortable and awkward. The premixed packets also is great because less of a chance of putting too much or too little in with the (warm but not hot) water.
My nose has been stuffed for ten to fifteen years at least, rarely does it clear itself. Something has to have a VERY strong smell for me to pick up a scent. Think it would do anything for me?
I have tried this quite a few times but I feel like I’m drowning because I’m clearly not doing the right technique. I have watched so many videos . The more I try the more my confidence decreases . Kevin‘s video is helpful. so I’m gonna try again later and hopefully get it right next time. I need to practice the bottle squeezing because either the water rashes out, or it doesn’t go up my nose. Thank you, Tami and Kevin
Okay. I was really apprehensive about getting one and doing, even after watching another video of a first time user. BUT after watching you, I'm going to do it tomorrow! Oh God! Did I just sound excited? Ugh!
@@joannewilliams3596 distilled water is pretty much pure H2O, at least it should be. it's evaporated and then cooled which removes pretty much everything that is not water from it. tap water, especially heated tap water, contains calcium, magnesium, sand, and other contaminants, including dissolved gases like methane. you're assuming that the system that delivers your water is safe every time you use it. But if there's a break and you don't see the boil order notification in the newspaper, facebook, et al, or like a lot of people, never even really think about boil orders, you run the risk of inoculating yourself in a large quantity and very quickly with some very nasty waterborne bacteria that may linger until the lines are fully recharged with clean water and have time to flush. cold tap water suspends less minerals and contaminants. so if you're going to use tap water, you should boil cold tap water to reduce the risk of waterborne bacteria colonizing your sinuses.
it should be BOILED water that had been cooled. This removes bacteria. There is bacteria everywhere especially in one’ hot water tank (when did you ever hear of washing your hot water tank, right?)
How do you know how hard/fast to squeeze the bottle? I had water coming out of my eye on the side I was irrigating, so thought maybe I was doing it too hard, but only a dribble from the first nostril and nothing from the second.
Thank you for the review! I really appreciate that. I have had a great fear of doing this because I cannot swim and when water even goes up my nose a little I feel like I can't breathe, so that's why I've been putting this off. But I have such severe sinus issues now. Do you feel like someone like me could do this?
Not sure if you've tried it yet... the two big differences between water up your nose here and swimming: with this you keep your mouth open and can breathe and the water isn't chlorinated. I just started and found it to be super easy.
Love this product. Recently had really bad bout with allergies. I decided to do the irrigation/rinse before using my Flonase histamine blocker. Haven't done either in at least 3 days. I feel great
I just tried this myself after watching your video I went up to Walfart and got one for like 12 bucks after tax. Here lately I have tried sudafed, zyrtec, mucinex, alka seltzer decongestion and the only thing that actually worked was a nasal spray with oxymetazoline and even that only worked for a few hours and that stuff is bad for ya in a prolonged useage. I always was really leary about trying this because I thought it would like when you get water up your nose when swimming in a pool. I think as long as you lean over and have your mouth open too it wont burn but still is a very wierd sensation the first time doing this. I do agree this would be better than the nette pot for the reasons you stated and so far definitely working better than all those other drugs I tried:) I am already feeling a lot better out of one of my nostrils. The other one I guess wants to be stubborn, I guess it just takes after me lol. But thanks for the video it was the final factor in me actually trying this.
@@TamiDunn so far its only temp relief and I am clogged back up not too long afterwards. I been doing a lot of research lately and I think I have figured out why I am having so many problems lately. I guess dry weather really can screw with sinus. So I been trying like crazy to raise the humidity first 24 hours it was next to impossible to raise the humidity. I think it was because that the the room and the objects in the room were sucking up up the humidity. But now I finally got my bedroom at least above 50%. Which seems to be helping. Today after I got home I walked into the bedroom and I had a fog layer lol. up over 70% now:) I hope this will really help and get my sinus healed up then I plan on bumping it back down to between 50 n 60% humdity because I dont want mold issues to happen. I believe anything over 65% humidity is where mold can start to form.
I hope you are feeling better. If you use anything but distilled water, you should boil it first...even bottled drinking water. Also the thing I like about my neti pot, is that I can put it right into my dishwasher. I add a little bleach to the start of my cycle. I am a little germaphobic I guess.
I just bought NeilMed Sinus Rinse and it says not to use with a Block ear or ear infection.. I feel like there is pressure in my left ear so question now is why cant i use the product
I'd bring it to you but I'm American, a female and those are the worst things you can be in saudia arabia. you could fashion something if you can''f find a neti-pot. boil water with a bit of salt -- dissolve the salt, let the solution cool and pour it into one nostril, let it flow out of the other nostril and rinse and repeat w. other nostril.
I just bought this, and geez! I should've know, you guys have videos on EVERYTHING!! haha!! I sure hope it helps because my head feels like it's going to explode! Kevin, do you still use this regularly?
How about applying the coconut oil inside the nose, as it anti fungal and can we use saline water to rinse. In India neti pot is common praticsed to clear nose in Yoga....
One thing that does work for people is eating local honey and you will get allergies bad but ur body will then fight it and u should start to get immune
Thanks for sharing this. I have been so nervous to do this. Explaining what you felt how you felt and then watching you actually do it really has helped. I'm still nervous a little. I may watch a few more times. Does any water run down your throat? I think that is what scares me the most.
I just tried this a few days ago for the first time. I ended up with a shiner under one of my eyes. Why would that happen? Any thoughts on how to avoid that in the future?
@@TamiDunn I actually have them a call. I was told to gently squeeze the bottle, because otherwise it could hit my ear or eye socket and cause a shiner to occur. I decided to try it again today, so hopefully I don't get the same response!
I finally tried it and it was the worst feeling. I couldn't breathe and no water was coming out of my other nostril, so I had to keep pulling it out. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
I used my sinus rinse today and yesterday because I had a stuffy nose for 19 whole days now and I had this cough too and it is getting on my nerves and it is driving me nuts and crazy too.
It's works really good.I'm glad I got it. just follow the directions and you'll be fine.. I boiled a gallon of water.put that aside and save it.this is easy Peezy. Good luck folks
Sometimes it takes a couple of times of flushing your nasal passages out to loosen the impacted mucus before you get mucus to come out. Have you ever noticed little kids in a pool and they get water up their nose and then a bunch of snot runs out of their nose? Same principle. I used to have terrible sinus problems but since flushing my sinuses they stay clear longer and get infected less often. I just use regular table salt instead of the packets because it works just as well and is much cheaper. Also, you can add a tablespoon or more of Colloidal Silver to the salt water to enhance the healing/disinfecting of the rinse.
Well I tried this and it didn’t work ... for some reason the water went into my throat and my ear canal. So now I can’t hear well and my ear hurts. I did not tilt my head though. Unfortunately screwed myself uo even worse and don’t wanna try again :(
Steve Dolan hey steve try having ur mouth open and saying AHHHH or KKKKKK. Also if u fee more congested us two packets to make it hypertonic and itll feel a lot better
This product really works. I was having upper tooth pain due to my sinuses and thought I needed a root canal. After using this product my sinus passages feel so clean and I can breathe. No more tooth pain!
that's why I'm here, toothache for 3 days..will be so relieved if this works
If you are severely congested (as with a sinus infection) you will have to repeat it after a pause to let the moisture get into the mucus. Yes, sometimes you will see the mucus come out! But the relief is so worth it!

+Coop2279 It's good to know that he chose wisely!
That's good news.
I used 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt and its 100 percent effective.
I know this is an older video... but I have used this for years! Tami’s so funny “I’m not seeing mucus...” when I first used it - it took 3 or 4 days, and I had a humongous piece of mucus slide out. And I was like 😱 “oh sh**! Where was that hiding?!” And once that was out... I felt so much better 👍
Omg thank you SO much
Thanks, something to look forward to.
Wow, thanks for that info😮
I tried this after my second sinus infection and....It was immediately effective and glops of mucus came out! Sorry for the gross description( lol). It is better than continues use of nasal sprays.This is my forever nasal decongestant. Thanks for the awesome video

Bought one of these babies last month, with 2 packets included. I love it!! It was about $8 @Walmart.
Will it clear the mucus that feels like it's stuck in your throat
Hi Kevin and Tammy, I had to use this sinus rinse for 4 months after I had my tear ducts reconstructed. I boiled a quart of water every day, let it cool and put it in the refrigerator for when I need to use it. Just a little tip… The rinse feels better if you heat the water in the microwave for about 15 seconds. By that I mean the saline rinse should be tepid too warm. It just feels more soothing.

You are welcome. I hope you are able to breathe with ease after your surgery.
Hello. May I ask how the surgery went? 🙏🏿
Its excellent. Always use distilled water. I leave my bottle in the washroom tightly sealed.
What an awesome thing to share with us! I'm sure a lot of people are afraid to try something like this...and by showing how it's done and telling us how it felt....I bet you really helped everyone that had second thoughts of trying something like this !!:)
+Annette Collins I know that I would have been afraid of it before.
Thank God for people like you 🤗😇

But there was non of that. Just the salty flavor from the solution. It did take longer than expected to get the excess saline solution out.
PLEASE READ THE REPLY THAT TAKES YOU TO WHERE YOU NEED TO READ THE ARTICLE FROM USA TODAY!!!!!!!
Yep. I was going to recommend distilled water or boiled and cooled water. You don't want to get any nasty fungus or infection from tap water being in your sinuses. But these sort of things are a great option! Glad you got some relief! Brett, PharmD hahah

Distilled or boiled a must; tap water can have bacteria that our mouth/stomach can handle, but our sinuses can't!
This is amazing,I had another manufacture device. This is 100 % helpful and easy to use . Room temperature bottle water VS distilled water makes a world of difference .Easy and pleasant as possible.When the doctor said 3 times daily.I thought OH NO Impossible .Use half in one side then switch RELIEF ,Give your self treatments and time. Clean and air dry .There is no burning .Don’t swallow any thing that is in the back of your thought .Perhaps the pressure used with this product and bottle is better BE well
I’m so glad it helped!

You need to warm up your distilled water so salt dissolves, undissolved salt burns. Warmth will also loosen and move mucus.
Yep, You're right. Just like I've heard that drinking warm beverages helps chest cold.
Thank you both for this video. It really helped me a lot. I too was nervous about using this and had put it off for a very long time.

But it helps me not get build-up in my throat, tickle in my throat at night, and I can actually breathe. It's helped me so much with allergies.
Well...I think over doing it can cause you to feel a bit dizzy. I would just do it once a day when needed.

$400 bucks they are proud of that glorified salt water 😖😤 💵
I actually use 1 full bottle for each side & it doesn’t burn b/c it’s Ph balanced to match your tears
I prefer warm water & would rather boil the water, then let it cool down.
The only time you shouldn’t use this is if you literally have a sinus infection!!!
But other than that ... this thing is awesome. Definitely good for allergies, colds, flu & prevention of all these
Burnt a bit but that's probably coz I've had sinusitis for a few days and my skin is raw
Why shouldn't you do it if you have a sinus infection?
Thankyou Kevin and Tami, I was scared to try this but I feel more confident seeing you make it look so easy!! :)
I hope it helps you!
Repeated use after a week u should see differences or i did atleast. I only use it during the harvest months. If u do not see results or suffer from bad allergies use two packets so the mixture becomes a hypertonic solution

Did you know that rinsing your mouth out with Warm table salt water or warm sea salt water is much safer and better then doing it with plain regular mouthwash because unlike mouthwash if you accidentally swallow some of the salt it's not going to cause any harm what so ever like mouthwash does because we do eat salt after all anyway almost everysingle day of it
Funny enough I have a sinus infection right now and I just got recommended this video under the new crumble cookie video! I've never tried anything like this, or a netti pot, i don't think those are common here but upon watching this video and hearing that it's not a nightmare of an experience I'm gonna go check if they do sell something like this at pharmacies here
I’m sorry. Sinus infections are no fun at all.
Thank you, sincerely, for posting this. I've been pretty reticent to do this, but seeing someone else truly do it for the first time has already made me much more comfortable and confident. I know it's not easy sharing our more vulnerable, human moments with the world, but I really do appreciate it! Thanks again, and please take care. 👍
Thank you! I hope it helps you feel better.
How did it go im about to use it my nose has been stuffy for 4 months
I have been using this for years my allergy doctor gave it to me. I have also used a Nettie pot. I think the bottle works better. I hope it works as well for as it does for me. Great review. Laura from Los Angeles
+Laura Pratt Kevin thought this would be easier than using a Nettie pot.
Thank you for sharing this. I used to get chronic sinusitus, now just congestion and chronic cough. Thank you!
Thanks for the video! I've been told to use a saline rinse, but I've been really worried about it, even though friends have reassured me that they've done it. It doesn't look so bad, seeing you do it.
I'm so plugged right now, and that looks so satisfying that I kind of don't even care if it really cures it. I just want to breathe a little better and have something flush out whatever's up there or at least have the feeling that it's being flushed. Thanks for the demo
I hope you get some relief soon.
I'm in the same boat. Going to give it a shot. Did you try it? If so, did it help?
NeilMed is brilliant my doctor recommended this a while back as I suffer from rhinitis and this really helps to clear my nose. X
Again thank you so much for sharing. After waiting for 2 weeks I finally did it. Well we did it. I had the video going so the three of us kinda did it together. Your right it feels weird. I leaned way over and tilted my head. I did feel a cold sensation in my throat but no water ran down the back of my throat. Which that was what scared me most was having that drowning sensation. But that did not happen at all. And I guess it depends on how bad your sinus infection is. Because mine is I guess severe enough that it's yellow and green that's exactly what I had come out the very first time I used it. Thanks again keep you posted if it clears everything up.
I hope it helps!
Great video - but you really shouldn’t use bottled water. Not for nothing but we think b/c it’s bottled - it’s safe. Not so, many bottled water contain fluoride & you shouldn’t be shooting that up your nose.
Distilled water or better yet (boiled water) that has cooled down
There's a lot of fluoride in the tap water where I live. Bottled water is listed as okay to use by the manufacturer.
I used to for the first time today myself. Had this cough (from a cold I've had for a few days) and wasn't able to sleep. As they say use very filtered water or bottled water (or water that's been well boiled and then of course cooled off) but don't use tap water. So far, I like it better than my Neti Pot as it's easier to control and less uncomfortable and awkward. The premixed packets also is great because less of a chance of putting too much or too little in with the (warm but not hot) water.
I'm glad it has been helpful!
My nose has been stuffed for ten to fifteen years at least, rarely does it clear itself. Something has to have a VERY strong smell for me to pick up a scent. Think it would do anything for me?
You may want to ask your doctor if you have a deviated septum. If so, it can be corrected with surgery.
I have tried this quite a few times but I feel like I’m drowning because I’m clearly not doing the right technique. I have watched so many videos . The more I try the more my confidence decreases . Kevin‘s video is helpful. so I’m gonna try again later and hopefully get it right next time. I need to practice the bottle squeezing because either the water rashes out, or it doesn’t go up my nose. Thank you, Tami and Kevin
I really hope it works for you 🙏🏻
It didn't go from one of my nostril to the other but I did feel a slight difference after lightly blowing my nose. I'll try again tomorrow
Excellent presentation. I have the same device. Thank you so much
Okay. I was really apprehensive about getting one and doing, even after watching another video of a first time user. BUT after watching you, I'm going to do it tomorrow! Oh God! Did I just sound excited? Ugh!
Just so you know, if you use this you should use distilled water
what if you use tap water what will happen?
@@joannewilliams3596 distilled water is pretty much pure H2O, at least it should be. it's evaporated and then cooled which removes pretty much everything that is not water from it. tap water, especially heated tap water, contains calcium, magnesium, sand, and other contaminants, including dissolved gases like methane. you're assuming that the system that delivers your water is safe every time you use it. But if there's a break and you don't see the boil order notification in the newspaper, facebook, et al, or like a lot of people, never even really think about boil orders, you run the risk of inoculating yourself in a large quantity and very quickly with some very nasty waterborne bacteria that may linger until the lines are fully recharged with clean water and have time to flush. cold tap water suspends less minerals and contaminants. so if you're going to use tap water, you should boil cold tap water to reduce the risk of waterborne bacteria colonizing your sinuses.
Joanne Williams Here is the non-ridiculous short version
Just never use tap water.
amp.usatoday.com/amp/2236681002
Or boiled
it should be BOILED water that had been cooled. This removes bacteria. There is bacteria everywhere especially in one’ hot water tank (when did you ever hear of washing your hot water tank, right?)
How often should you do it
How do you know how hard/fast to squeeze the bottle? I had water coming out of my eye on the side I was irrigating, so thought maybe I was doing it too hard, but only a dribble from the first nostril and nothing from the second.
What do you think I should do if one side is so clogged the the water doesn’t even go through ?
Yeah..you're not supposed to use even regular bottled water since too often it's just tap water. Distilled or boiled only.
Thank you for this video. It helps convince me that the rinse can help me.
You are so welcome!
Thank you for the review! I really appreciate that. I have had a great fear of doing this because I cannot swim and when water even goes up my nose a little I feel like I can't breathe, so that's why I've been putting this off. But I have such severe sinus issues now. Do you feel like someone like me could do this?
Yes!
Not sure if you've tried it yet... the two big differences between water up your nose here and swimming: with this you keep your mouth open and can breathe and the water isn't chlorinated. I just started and found it to be super easy.
Love this product. Recently had really bad bout with allergies. I decided to do the irrigation/rinse before using my Flonase histamine blocker. Haven't done either in at least 3 days. I feel great
Good to know!
I just trow half a flat spoon of salt into the water. It's the same but way cheaper.
I just tried this myself after watching your video I went up to Walfart and got one for like 12 bucks after tax. Here lately I have tried sudafed, zyrtec, mucinex, alka seltzer decongestion and the only thing that actually worked was a nasal spray with oxymetazoline and even that only worked for a few hours and that stuff is bad for ya in a prolonged useage. I always was really leary about trying this because I thought it would like when you get water up your nose when swimming in a pool. I think as long as you lean over and have your mouth open too it wont burn but still is a very wierd sensation the first time doing this. I do agree this would be better than the nette pot for the reasons you stated and so far definitely working better than all those other drugs I tried:) I am already feeling a lot better out of one of my nostrils. The other one I guess wants to be stubborn, I guess it just takes after me lol. But thanks for the video it was the final factor in me actually trying this.
I hope it gives you some relief.
@@TamiDunn so far its only temp relief and I am clogged back up not too long afterwards. I been doing a lot of research lately and I think I have figured out why I am having so many problems lately. I guess dry weather really can screw with sinus. So I been trying like crazy to raise the humidity first 24 hours it was next to impossible to raise the humidity. I think it was because that the the room and the objects in the room were sucking up up the humidity. But now I finally got my bedroom at least above 50%. Which seems to be helping. Today after I got home I walked into the bedroom and I had a fog layer lol. up over 70% now:) I hope this will really help and get my sinus healed up then I plan on bumping it back down to between 50 n 60% humdity because I dont want mold issues to happen. I believe anything over 65% humidity is where mold can start to form.
What about the bottle washing and sterilization process? That step is missing and I would think is very important...
How do I make it stop coming from my mouth
After using it, again after some minutes do we need to wash the nose with normal water
I know the instructions didn’t say use bottled water
Plus, water should be lukewarm or as warm as it can that’s a comfortable temperature
I hope you are feeling better. If you use anything but distilled water, you should boil it first...even bottled drinking water. Also the thing I like about my neti pot, is that I can put it right into my dishwasher. I add a little bleach to the start of my cycle. I am a little germaphobic I guess.
This was recommended to me by my Ent doctor. Does this help with cleaning mucus in throat
Also when I do it water doesn't come out the other nostril
Does mucus come in your nose after irrigation?
I'm currently this due my allergies and drainage in my middle of of chest allergies suck
I just bought NeilMed Sinus Rinse and it says not to use with a Block ear or ear infection.. I feel like there is pressure in my left ear so question now is why cant i use the product
Thank you Kevin, I did it exactly like u did and it worked great.
Great to hear!
Do you hold your breath while squeezing? First timer user and I’m terrified of drowning..
is that available here in saudi arabia? have sinus infection..thanks
I'd bring it to you but I'm American, a female and those are the worst things you can be in saudia arabia. you could fashion something if you can''f find a neti-pot. boil water with a bit of salt -- dissolve the salt, let the solution cool and pour it into one nostril, let it flow out of the other nostril and rinse and repeat w. other nostril.
This is better than Mucinex I had an itchy throat after I put this in my nose it cleared it up best invention of the world
I just bought this, and geez! I should've know, you guys have videos on EVERYTHING!! haha!! I sure hope it helps because my head feels like it's going to explode! Kevin, do you still use this regularly?
He only uses it when needed. :)
How about applying the coconut oil inside the nose, as it anti fungal and can we use saline water to rinse. In India neti pot is common praticsed to clear nose in Yoga....
One thing that does work for people is eating local honey and you will get allergies bad but ur body will then fight it and u should start to get immune
Thanks for sharing this. I have been so nervous to do this. Explaining what you felt how you felt and then watching you actually do it really has helped. I'm still nervous a little. I may watch a few more times. Does any water run down your throat? I think that is what scares me the most.
If you don't lean your head far enough forward, it will run down your throat.
Thanks for an awesome demo, this is spot on!
Glad you like it!
Does this improve halitosis? Did any1 notice a difference after using it
how many times a day do i use this?
I just tried this a few days ago for the first time. I ended up with a shiner under one of my eyes. Why would that happen? Any thoughts on how to avoid that in the future?
I have never heard of that happening. I would email the company and ask them.
@@TamiDunn I actually have them a call. I was told to gently squeeze the bottle, because otherwise it could hit my ear or eye socket and cause a shiner to occur. I decided to try it again today, so hopefully I don't get the same response!
NO TAP WATER FOLLOW THE CORRECT INSTRUCTIONS
michael cosentino what happens if we use tap water
Stfu with your damn instructions,it works just fine warm up the water and let it cool dumbass
Is fell pain?
Was told to do this for BMS - Burning Mouth Syndrome. Has anyone found it to effective?
Will this help my sinus infection.. sinusitis?? Kaiser pharmacy recommended i try it
It's supposed to help, but I don't know if it will help with an infection. We would rather take a prescribed medication for a sinus infection.
Yes it will help for sure. It helps when the water is warm and make sure its distilled or bottled never tap. It should give you some relief for sure
I finally tried it and it was the worst feeling. I couldn't breathe and no water was coming out of my other nostril, so I had to keep pulling it out. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks guys!
Thank you for watching!
I used my sinus rinse today and yesterday because I had a stuffy nose for 19 whole days now and I had this cough too and it is getting on my nerves and it is driving me nuts and crazy too.
I hope you get better soon!
It's works really good.I'm glad I got it. just follow the directions and you'll be fine.. I boiled a gallon of water.put that aside and save it.this is easy Peezy. Good luck folks
Thanks for this! Going for my first rinse now... and going to the doc in a few days.
I hope you feel better soon!
do you know how often to use this? or is it just one time
I used it several times a day until I got better.
Does this cuase any side effects not sure if I still got the smell in my nose can anybody respond my question ols
It didn’t cause any side effects for me.
@@TamiDunn ok thank you
Sometimes it takes a couple of times of flushing your nasal passages out to loosen the impacted mucus before you get mucus to come out. Have you ever noticed little kids in a pool and they get water up their nose and then a bunch of snot runs out of their nose? Same principle. I used to have terrible sinus problems but since flushing my sinuses they stay clear longer and get infected less often. I just use regular table salt instead of the packets because it works just as well and is much cheaper. Also, you can add a tablespoon or more of Colloidal Silver to the salt water to enhance the healing/disinfecting of the rinse.
Thank you for your comment!
So, one should be able to breathe while doing the procedure?
keep your mouth slightly open when doing it
@@sonebone7 yes thank you, I have been doing the rinse for a couple of weeks now. A piece of cake!
Thank you very much .
Thank you for watching!
J'utilise ce produit régulièrement depuis 3 ans , est-ce conseillé. J'ai des éruptions dans le nez. Merci
I'm glad it helps you!
Thank you, your video was very helpful. On point!!!!
I did it felt better instantly better
Directions say to disinfect in the microwave for 2 or 3 minutes.
Does Kevin have any specific allergies? From watching your videos I have noticed that Kevin does seem to sneeze and cough a lot.
+Jadelin Romain Nothing specific. When spring arrives, he gets this way every year.
Informative and to the point. Thanks for posting.
Glad it was helpful!
Just got one at my local Ride Aid 20 min ago I got the NeilMed SinuFlo Ready Rinse , just did it and well I'll see how it goes
Update, it worked, the moment I used it I felt as if something was lifted from my head man I love this product!
Well I tried this and it didn’t work ... for some reason the water went into my throat and my ear canal. So now I can’t hear well and my ear hurts. I did not tilt my head though. Unfortunately screwed myself uo even worse and don’t wanna try again :(
I’m having this same problem 🤔
Very good. Thanks for the complete instructions!
You're welcome!
Yo... Don't use Dasani. Use cooled boiled water lol. And of course mucus isn't rushing out. You're thinning it and it's rushing with the water
It's better to use distilled water.
I feel the pressure worse when I do this
Steve Dolan hey steve try having ur mouth open and saying AHHHH or KKKKKK. Also if u fee more congested us two packets to make it hypertonic and itll feel a lot better
