New Neti Pot Nasal Wash / Sinus Irrigation System by Nasopure is the natural way to improve sinus health and prevent sickness because it uses natural ingredients and does not have any side effects. The patented bottle is an improvement on the traditional neti pot design because it encourages nasal washing with your head in an upright position as opposed to tilting your head to the side with a traditional neti pot. In addition, the patented bottle has a tip that makes nasal washing easy for everyone ages two and above. The patented bottle comes in two sizes: a 4 ounce travel bottle and an 8 ounce bottle that holds enough saline mix for an entire week of use. Regular use of a saline nasal wash can soothe and moisturize nasal membranes which helps keep sinuses clear, clean, and healthy. Further, nasal washing can reduce allergy symptoms, sinus congestion, and dependency on medications such as antibiotics, antihistamines, nasal steroids, decongestants, and asthma medications because the saline mix creates an adverse environment for viral and bacterial organisms. It is recommended to use less saline mix to start and to gradually increase the potency of the saline mix. Included are detailed instructions that illustrate how to hold the bottle at the correct angle and how to create the saline mix with the easy to use Swish Stixs. Recommended for use by children two and above, athletes, performers, singers, travelers, seniors, firefighters, construction workers, farmers, military, and anyone exposed to environmental pollution and irritants. more info

A bit expensive for what you get…
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I’ve had this rig for about a month now and use it about once a day. Like many, I have allergies and this rig does help…
however, the bottle is thin plastic, and basically, has a top that resembles a dish detergent top.
(In fact, I don’t see any difference)
My main gripe about this rig, is that the pop top, pops closed sometimes while you are irrigating even under slight pressure.
(In other words, if you put too much pressure while trying to seal the bottle against your nostril, the cap may close on you).
The marketing pitch claims you don’t have to tilt your head. This is bunk if you want to be able to use all of the solution in the bottle.
You will still need to tilt your head. (Frankly, this is no big deal)
As far as cost, for what you get, 20 bucks is too much. In fact, it’s a rip off for what is essentially a dish detergent bottle.
Don’t buy the packet/refills… they are a ripoff too!
Instead, here is how to save some $$$ on the “solution”
Mix your own (this will fit into the bottle as the bottle I have is 8 ounces or 1 cup)
1 cup water
1/2 tsp Sea Salt
1/2 tsp Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda)
Great product

This is a great product! It’s MUCH easier to use than regular neti pots (which can be a real pain to use).
Better than Netti
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
After a few unsuccessful attempts with the traditional netti pot I had given up on nasal irrigation. It caused pain and headaches. However, post-nasal drip that didn’t respond to anything the docs have me made me want to try again. After seeing a video showing a chid using this product I decided to give it a go.
What an amazing difference this product has made. I am not sure if it is because I can stand up straight using it, or due to the design of the bottle, but I experience no sinus pain or pressure as with the traditional netti pot. After four days I could breathe easier, sleep more soundly because the post nasal drip does not wake me up any longer. For the first four days/nights the post nasal drip was there, but more of a saline drip.
I now use it every morning, after I brush my teeth. However, I do not use the packets that came with it any longer, as they sting. I use a pharmaceutical grade salt which is very fine and don’t feel a thing.
Overall I believe, Nasopure is a great price for a great product.
Thought it would be scary, but….
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Its not scary at all! I bought this thing, dreading it, but knowing I really needed to do something about my chronic sinus issues. I’ve been scared of nasal sprays my whole life and hated the water-up-the-nose feeling you get when you swin. I guess the youtube videos of the little kids doing it sold me. I figure if they weren’t afraid, then I could do it. I actually like using the nasopure. I find the trick is to get the temperature just right. If its too cool or too warm, then its uncomfortable, but just right at luke-warm, then you dont really feel it. It leaves you feeling refreshed, and I credit nasopure for helping prevent cold and flu thus far.
Better than neti!

I am a physician, but MORE important – I am a chronic allergy and runny nose person. My whole life. Had sinus surgery, took antihistamines daily, got infections, lost time at work – the whole thing. I started using a generic nose wash system that really helped immensely (less symptoms, less need for meds), but then I found Nasopure and I haven’t used anything else since that day. I carry the Little Squirt with me when I travel and I swear it’s kept me from getting sick more than once. The bottle is intuitively easy to use, the mix is the best one I’ve found, and I rank Nasopure right up there with my toothbrush for The Things That Help Me Feel Human Every Morning.
sinus irrigation bottle: It Works
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
I never thought I’d be writing anything like this. Allergies have been a big problem all my life. I’m 45. This thing works.
Living in the desert with very low humidity causes my sinuses to dry out excessively, making the natural drainage fail. I use this irrigation bottle every morning in the shower, and so far it has helped immensely. The saline packets come in a “high strength” and per instructions you can mix 1/2 packets for normal use, or whole packets for extra-strength. I normally use 1/2 packet.
When done, there is a strong smell of halide / chlorine, much like when you’ve had ocean water in your sinuses (sodium chloride…), but it goes away fairly fast.
Don;t buy this bottle for irrigation
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
The bottle is tiny, doesn’t fit my nose and leaks. For irrigation of both nostrils I have to fill it twice and then I lose a quarter of the contents when I press it. A waste of money.
I have been using a Swiss model for 5 years and it works ver well but I can’t replace it.
New design — a pleasure to use
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
The new design of this Nasopure Neti Pot makes it much easier to use than the heavy and breakable ceramic genie or teapot versions, which force you to hold your head at an awkward and uncomfortable angle. The Nasopure allows you to irrigate your lower sinuses while looking directly ahead, with absolutely no “drowning” sensation. Your upper sinuses are gently cleansed by the suction action that occurs when the saline solution rushes through your lower sinus passages.
The instructions included with the Nasopure say to use about two tablespoons of the saline solution in each nostril per day, storing the excess in the bottle in between uses; but I typically use about half the solution in each nostril, rinse out the bottle with hot water, then mix up fresh saline solution the next morning. The enclosed packets of mixture are handy when you’re getting up to speed with the whole process, but when they run out it’s a simple matter to add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt to warm water in the bottle and briefly shake to mix. If you prefer a buffered solution, just toss in a pinch of baking soda with the salt.
The whole process takes less than three minutes each morning before my shower, and I breathe easier all day as a result. An allergy sufferer, I definitely notice a difference on the occasional days that I forget to irrigate my sinuses.
Great product.

I bought this for my son who is 8 years old, we had been using the neilmed pediatric for a couple of weeks but I didn’t like the fact that we only had one bottle for both of us, so I decided to do some research for the best bottle and found this one, I bought thru amazon and I liked the bottle a lot better that the neilmed, but I diluted a little more since the first time it burned me a little, I was testing before giving it to my son, he was able to use it perfectly and this one really cleansed his nail passage. I will probably keep on using the neilmed for myself and the nasopure for my son since he liked it better. Thanks Nasopure.
