(More customer reviews)This is the first product that I have ever used for sinus irrigation, so I can't compare it to the other things on the market. I have only been using this for a week, but I have already gone from taking three doses of Sudafed a day to one, and I could probably stop the one I take first thing in the morning, but I am not that brave, yet.
I have sinus allergies and my headaches have been particularly bad lately, so I finally took the advice that I had been hearing for the last ten years and looked into netti pots. I found this device and thought that it looked easier to use and not as messy, so I gave it a try.
This one came with thirty packets of the powder that you mix with luke warm water to make the solution that you squirt up your nose. It only takes a few seconds to make up the solution and then you lean over the sink, put the nozzle in your nostril, point it toward the back of your head and squeeze half of the solution into your nose. The water runs out your other nostril like magic and then you do the other side. Blow your nose to remove any left over solution. All done.
I thought that it would hurt or be uncomfortable, but as long as you don't snort up the water as you are irrigating, it shouldn't be a big deal. It is just a bit odd the first few times that you do it. You can breathe through your mouth, but I just hold my breathe as I do it, since it doesn't take very long.
I have read that you can mix up your own powder with non-iodized sea salt and baking soda, if you don't want the expense of always buying the pre-measured stuff. I haven't tried it, but I know that you can do a google search for a recipe and to find out more about it.
I saw a video online where Drew, the Toothpaste For Dinner guy, did a netti pot demonstration with coffee and red wine and it gave me the courage to try the tame saline solution method. You might want to google that too, just because it is kind of funny.
