Sinus flushing
For sinus flushing, use a “Neti-Pot” which is designed specifically for this function.
For this application of sinus flushing, prepare a 1% sole solution by dissolving 0.35 ounces of crystal salt in 3.4 ounces of lukewarm water.
This concentration is equal to the salt concentration in our body fluids and hence, does not irritate the nose as does seawater.
This application can be repeated as often as needed but usually twice a day is sufficient to keep your sinuses clear.

DIRECTIONS
- 1. Lean your head over the bathroom sink and apply the beak of the neti-pot into your nostril. Keep your mouth closed.
- 2. Lean your head slightly forward and slightly bend it to the side.
- 3. The sole will flow through your nostril and come out of the other nostril. Repeat this procedure with the other nostril.
- 4. This 1% solution is also excellent for gargling when infections of the mucous membranes in the nose, mouth and throat areas occur.
