Instructions for a Sinus Wash
- 1). Fill the neti pot with a mixture of lukewarm water and just a pinch of salt. This is the saline solution.
- 2). Place the spout of the neti pot into one nostril, over a sink, tilting the head just enough that the solution flows into the sinuses.
- 3). Allow the water to flow out of the opposite nostril, by adjusting your head until this begins to happen.
- 4). Repeat the steps for the other nostril and dump out any excess solution from the neti pot and rinse it with clean water.
