I have been looking for a neti pot solution for a while but it's hard for me to justify the price of $30 like most products to stick it up my nose and pour water. When Waterpik came out with this solution I was excited because it was half of the cost of other products and came with the saline packets.
After I tried it for the first time, I can't tell you how much I can breathe again when I wake up. My biggest issues no matter the season or even how clean my home is is that I have an overload of mucus and what have you in my nasal cavity. I like to practice breathing exercises and tai chi in the morning but it's hard for me to go through a routine without having to stop and "hack" something out. Especially if you are doing a meditative style breathing of qi qong. However to my avail I was able to breath deeply and and I felt wonderful. This will be an excellent remedy for when I receive a cold or have an allergy.
The one thing that is a bit of a bothersome is having to keep your bottle maintained. Initially you have to clean it, boil water, wait then use it. It has to be done weekly. Also there could be a little more push of the water when I am pouring as it can take a little time. But other than that, it's a great product and I can now definitely skip the pills and just do this twice a day! Highly recommended.

An Ancient Technique for Modern HealthSinus washing is an ancient Ayurvedic technique, called jala neti, with origins based in the yoga tradition. In Eastern cultures, jala neti is performed as routinely as we brush our teeth or wash our hands. Although Western doctors commonly prescribe antihistamines, decongestants, steroids, and antibiotics, they also recommend sinus washing for allergy sufferers and patients with chronic sinusitis. Allergists and ear, nose, and throat specialists (ENTs) also encourage sinus washing as a preventive approach to allergies and key to sinus health.

I ordered the Waterpik Neti Pot as a part of a free online promotion they held a couple of months ago. I planned on giving it to my boyfriend because the idea of purposefully putting salt water up my nose just did not appeal to me. Last week I came down with some type of cold/allergy induced sinus problems including sore throat, coughing, and congestion. It was then I remembered the Neti Pot sitting, unopened, under my bathroom sink. I was so miserable at this point that I decided to dig it out and give it a go.
The instructions were clear and helpful. I used lukewarm water (too hot and it can hurt!) and one packet of provided saline. You tilt you head to the side and slightly forward and let the water run in one nostril and out the other, by way of gravity. If you're very congested (as I was) it may take a minute for the water to come out as a steady stream. It will drip until it finally breaks through the mucus causing your congestion. While the solution is working it's way through your congestion it may also go down the back of your throat a bit, because of all the blockage in your nose. Just tilt your head forward a little more and spit it out. It just tastes like the ocean haha. Without going into too much graphic detail about what comes out of your nose with the use of the Neti Pot... I definitely recommend this product! As someone who was originally creeped out by the thought of the whole process, I've been converted! I'm now finally getting over my sickness but still have bouts of thick mucus I can feel coming down the back of my throat. When this happens the Neti Pot comes to my aid and cleans it right out! It really is a miracle, and a great alternative to steroid nose sprays (but those are amazing too...)
Try it out, you won't be disappointed!

Average Reviews:

Our family's "holistic" chiropractor suggested the Nasaline Nasal Rinsing Sytem With 10 FREE Salt Packets - Helps Clean Your Sinuses to help flush out our sinuses when we feel any kind of sinus issues coming on. Initially, we liked it, but there were two cons to the Nasaline. First, it was easy to push too hard, forcing too much saline solution in the sinuses and causing some pain but mostly discomfort in the ears and eyes. The second problem was the rubber top of the syringe. Once it dries, it no longer works. So, it was only good for less than a dozen uses, and I had to throw it away.
We are completely sold on the whole nasal flush treatment. So, I definitely wanted to get something. After searching Amazon's vast catalog of sinus irrigators, I decided to try this because I liked the design.
Overall, I like it very much and would recommend it to others over the Nasaline. Here are the pros & cons.
PROS:
- Provides excellent flow control, which is one of my most important requirements. Easy to squeeze and control how fast you want the saline solution to flow.
- The tip is very comfortable and fits snug.
- It prevents the solution from going back into the bottle, aka backwash. I tested it by trying to force faucet water back down, and it took a lot of force for it to slightly take in water.
- It comes with tons of saline packets that are easy to dispense into the bottle.
CONS:
- The opening is a little too small. I wish it was larger. Using my OXO measuring cup, water doesn't always go in spill-free. (I would have given it 5 stars if the opening were a little bigger.)
- You have to be ready to stop when you get near the end. When it takes in air, it gets a little uncomfortable but not painful.
Hope the review was helpful.

Himalayan Institute Original Neti Pot Review

Himalayan Institute Original Neti Pot
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The neti pot is one of those things that I always knew I *needed* and would love once I got one and started using it.
But I still dragged my heels about getting one.
When we were out in a store one day, we saw one and my 17 year old son told me to get it. As always, I didn't feel like spending the $20 right then. There always seems to be *other* things I'd rather spend $20 on. And there we were, each ordering a gourmet coffee at $4 each. ::shame::
My son *firmly* said, for the second time, "Mom ~ GET IT!"
So I did.
And still, it just sat there. On the counter. All clean and ready to go, but picking it up and using it was another matter entirely.
And then one day, I just did it. I had been having allergy attacks, from being in the enclosed house with the woodstove burning all of the time. I couldn't believe I was sneezing so much!
So I picked up the pot, prepared the water and the salt, and did it.
It was so funny ~ I came out of the bathroom with my eyes all red and watery, with my throat all itchy feeling, my head all dizzy. My sons were like, "Yeah! That worked REALLY well!"
But once you get over the *trauma* of the first time using it (it's like going underwater and getting water up your nose, but after you do it the first time, you know what to expect...), it's amazing.
I usually do it in the morning now before I do my yoga and I feel great all day. From that *first* day I used it, those allergy symptoms I wrote about were GONE. I still am sneezy once in awhile, but just from normal irritants. I'm going to start doing it once in the morning and once in the evening.
It is amazing to be able to BREATHE and to have CLEAR feeling sinuses!!
If you are even *thinking* of getting this for yourself, just DO it. You won't be sorry. Everyone I know who has one is in love with it. It's easy ~ don't worry about getting all the special *washes* or *salts*. It works with regular salt or sea salt.
You'll be so happy you got it and used it when you're not getting those colds and sinus infections anymore.

This product could put every other cold, flu, allergy product out of business!
My surgeon prescribed Alkalol for immediate use after sinus surgery. I've been using it ever since... some fifteen years... as needed. It provides immediate relief of sinus symptoms. And having used probably every allergy and cold product known to man, this one is my top choice. I have no worries about side effects or addiction. I can use it 2-3 times a day and then stop short without a rebound of the problem. I no longer call a doctor for antibiotics when I get a sinus infection. Just start using Alkalol for a couple of days. Clears it right up (and I don't get those nasty antibiotic side-effects!)
I'd never have heard of it if not for the surgeon and everyone I've recommended it to (which is everyone!) has never heard of it. This company and product should be a household word! It has the "better mousetrap." People need to hear about it! They definitely need to hype up their marketing - tho I hope they don't jack their prices up to do so.
My only gripe is that I have always had to special order Alkalol at local pharmacy counters and had to wait a couple of days for it to arrive. So I ordered two bottles at a time which usually lasts my husband and I about a year. But seeing the price here on Amazon!? Hey, I pay $2-4 a bottle depending on the pharmacy and how much profit they decide to tack on. I may use Amazon to send Alkalol to suffering out of town friends but think I'll stick with local pharmacies for now - better prices and no s/h costs.
I usually just buy the bottle by itself tho... It's really all you need and half the price.

SinuPulse Elite Advanced Nasal Sinus Irrigation System Review

(More customer reviews)
I've also used a neti pot, but this is far superior. I have severe allergies, year round, and a friend recommended the neti pot which my doctor had never mentioned. It worked so well, right off the bat, that I purchased this, and I'm amazed. It takes only a few minutes, and I use it once in the morning and once before bed just as part of my normal routine. The thing is terrific, and I get instant relief PLUS the nighttime usage has really helped that early morning stuffiness. I can't get over the change. If you suffer allergies or other sinus issues, this could really, really improve your comfort level. I still have to take my meds, but at least now I can stay on top of problem, and I give full credit to the SinuPulse. It sounds like I'm one of their employees, but I'm not, just a regular person with allergies. And I'm breathing!! YAY!

Are you one of the millions of sinus and allergy sufferers? Is your nose stuffed up? Do you experience sinus headaches, allergy symptoms, infections, or post nasal drip? Does your treatment improve your body's disease fighting function, or are you simply treating the symptoms? The SinuPulse Elite® Advanced Sinus Irrigation System effectively cleanses and clears your sinuses gently and pleasantly, a powerful tool for the maintenance of clear & healthy sinuses - Without Drugs.
Sinus Relief in Less Than a Minute The SinuPulse Elite was developed and engineered in Switzerland to be the best and most advanced nasal sinus irrigation system in the world complete with state-of-the-art electronics and Intellipulse™ technology. The SinuPulse Elite® is an award-winning sinus irrigation system which features the patented SinuMist® function.It is the only sinus irrigator capable of delivering both a gentle pulsating mist spray for doctor recommended rinses, solutions, or simple moisturizing and a more thorough cleansing pulsating rinse to clear the sinuses and massage the nasal cilia to their normal, healthy state. It really is like having two units in one!The oscillating stream of saline gently breaks down bio-film and frees your cilia to help you clear your sinuses of infections and foreign substances that can lead to chronic infections and allergy symptoms.
The SinuPulse Elite is a soothing drug free device to relieve symptoms caused by sinus infections, sinusitis, allergies and the common cold including: post nasal drip, cough, congestion, sinus headaches, and irritated nasal passages. Recommended by leading health care professionals pulsating irrigation is supported by published medical reports.
Nasal Irrigation is believed to have originated over 5,000 years ago in ancient India. The practice of irrigation in ancient times consisted of manually sniffing a saltwater solution into the nostrils to help relieve nasal congestion by rinsing the sinus passages of pollens originating from grasses, weeds, flowers and trees. Modern day neti pots and nasal wash bottles continue this tradition and have changed little over the last 5,000 years. However, advancements have been made in both the design of sinus irrigation delivery systems and the solutions used to clean the nose of inflammatory irritants responsible for allergy and sinus symptoms.
Imagine rain drops falling from the sky landing on the soil with a gentle force that breaks apart soil particles. As this process continues, runoff water travels over the ground, collecting more soil particles dislodged by the rain and transports them to a new location. Pulsatile irrigation mimics a cleansing process present in nature. The SinuPulse Elite® pulsating treatment is gentle, pleasant, & soothing leaving you feeling clear and fresh. The sinus system uses ordinary saline, or for best results, our enhanced SinuAir® nasal irrigation solution.
The SinuPulse Elite advanced features include: state-of-the-art Micro Touch power button, electronic LED display, encapsulated motor and pump assembly to resist wear from saline, improve durability and performance. fully adjustable pressure and pause control on handle for finger tip control, hypo allergenic design, calibrated pulse rate, measurement scale, hi-capacity water tank with hygienic cover, soft color coded nasal tips for family members, and sinus treatment information.
