DewyDawn+FollowMy Neti Pot Routine Fixed My Sinuses?!Ever wake up stuffy and desperate for relief? That was me until I tried a neti pot—total game changer, but only if you do it right! 💡 Always use distilled or boiled (then cooled) water. Tap water is a no-go—trust me, you don’t want those germs up your nose. ✅ Mix in non-iodized salt (sea or kosher) for your saline solution. Table salt can irritate your nose. 🔔 Clean your neti pot with hot, soapy water before and after each use. Let it air dry upside down—never use a dish towel! ⚠️ Lean over the sink, tilt your head, and breathe through your mouth. Pour slowly, and rinse both nostrils for best results. Sinus relief feels amazing when you nail the basics! #SinusRelief #NetiPot #HomeRemedies #Health #Wellness00Share
