Salt & Pepper

My mom asked me today how long I’ve been using the neti pot, which prompted me to go through my archives to research. Can you believe it’s been a month already? That means I’ve been off all medication for a full month! That is just awesome. I’m thrilled with the results now that I’ve found a good routine. I do the neti pot once a day or once every other day, depending on how my sinuses are feeling. If I get that “funny” feeling in my head, I know I need to hit the neti pot ASAP.
In addition to the neti pot, I’ve also been using Sinus Buster nasal spray. The Sinus Buster is basically Capsaicin pepper and it stuff burns like a mo-fo, but it is so worth it. I definitely believe the combination of the Sinus Buster and the neti pot has cured my sinus and allergy problems aka vasomotor rhinitis, as diagnosed by my doctor.
Who knew that squirting liquid salt and pepper up my nose every day was all I needed to feel better and get off of the prescription medications with their horrible side-effects? That kind of cracks me up, actually – apparently my nasal cavity doesn’t like it bland up in there.
So, yay for homeopathic remedies!
I must have missed that first post, but I am very intrigued now! I haven’t been able to breath since last winter, really! I got a cold, and it’s never been the same.
You have to try it, Julie – it will change your life if you suffer from sinus problems!
I had regular bouts of sinusitis for years. Moving to another climate helped. I also get a head full of seawater on a regular basis. It’s a bit freakish how much water will fit in the cavities in my head.
