Instructions for Use:
Add one teaspoonful of
SinuAir®
formulated saline powder or non iodized salt to the irrigator basin
to get the correct concentration (non iodized salt is preferred because
some people are sensitive to iodine). Fill the basin with warm water, about
16 ounces or 500 cc. Attach the nasal irrigator tip. Turn on and adjust the
pressure so that if you point the irrigator straight up in the air, the
stream is about one inch high. Hold the handle by the end, this acts like a lever. Place in one nostril, bend over the
sink, and turn the device on. The saline goes through one nasal chamber
and out the other. After about a minute, switch sides. Use about 1/3 of
the basin, or until the saline return is clear.
The device is designed not to work if the nose is completely obstructed.
The saline goes through the sinuses and removes purulence and bacteria.
The pulsation restores cilia to normal. Rinse the machine thoroughly to
remove the salt after use. For most nasal and sinus conditions daily irrigation
in this manner for 10 days will restore the cilia to good function.
Sometimes asthma is caused or aggravated by pus in the nose so using
the irrigator to remove nasal sinus purulence is good medicine. Now that
so many bacteria have become antibiotic resistant, using the pulsating
irrigation early in an infection can help prevent the need for antibiotics.
Notes: In cases where cilia are absent or non-functional as in cystic
fibrosis, the irrigation tends to act as a substitute for normal cilia.
Benefits of Pulsating Irrigation:
Washing with saline removes certain virus products, making less work for
the body's natural immune and disease fighting systems.
With a cold, the mucus of the nose thickens. This impairs the nasal cilia
movement that is needed for health. With irrigation, the thick mucus is
removed and is replaced by thin saline. This allows the cilia to move again
to defend the body.
Pulsation moves the cilia back and forth, which helps restore normal movement
of the cilia.
Warm saline encourages blood flow to the sinus and nasal passage linings.
Saline is good for the nose; it keeps the nasal and sinus tissues moist
and helps the nose to heal.
Anyone can irrigate their own sinuses. With the Original Sinus Irrigator® you don't need any special training. We even
have 5 year old kids doing it all by themselves! |
