can i use any water bottle? and do i have to use salt?

[boinnng]

@594JLP Yes, you can basically use any bottle and you must use salt (otherwise it will hurt--really!). The water needs to be distilled water or water that you've boiled---but don't use it when it's boiling hot. Warm the salt water before using it. Good luck.

@AlienEffigy ?????? Huh???

[twinmama0505]

does anyone know if I could do this with just salty water? I'm dead sick with sinus infection for about a month now, and I'm running out of ideas on how to help myself. Will this help my pain ?

@twinmama0505 You could try it. But ther water needs to be warm (not hot). Cold salty water (and it needs to be salty---un salted water is painful) is NOT comfortable at all. Trust me. But if you have a sinus infection--try to get some antibiotics. When I started using this, I had a sinus infection and it helped...but a few months later I got some antibiotics and that took care of the problem. Now I only rinse during certain bad allergy seasons. Good luck to you.

why is it gross? The sinus rinse feels amazing... Everyone should do the rinse every now and again. It's basically an ancient yogic practice to clear the sinus' in such a way.

@594JLP you should use a mix of salt ( idoine free) and baking soda..check the web for the correct mix...in Europe every doctor first prescribes a nasel douche-you can buy the salt premixed in the correct dose next to the many different types of nael douche contraptions....

@twinmama0505 Best to use sea salt, and a bit less than half a teaspoon of it in lukewarm water. You can't use non-salted water, you'll know right away why. If you do it properly, it'll ease your sinuses. The pain is caused by pressure in your sinus.

Ross, I've been flushing my sinuses with salt water for at least 10 years. I don't go a day without ... no kidding! I just stick my nose in a Tupperware container filled with warm salt water and suck in the water one nostril at a time. I just hold one nostril closed with my index finger. I've had one cold in the last ten years and it didn't last very long. And I don't suffer from allergies anymore either. My sister on the other hand can't bring herself to do this and always has sniffles.

Make sure you use distilled water or water that has been boiled to kill things found in drinking water! Do not use straight tap water. Look it up yourself; person died from introducing a "brain eating" amoeba into their nose from tap water in a Neti pot. Rare I'm sure but still... Boil water for 3 min. first, let cool to warm, then use.
