Inhalation therapy is another good way to clear out nasal congestion and just requires a bowl and some water. You pour hot water into a bowl and inhale the steam generated for at least 5 minutes every day preferably before going to bed. This is probably one of the most simple and effective methods to relieve congestion that can be done at home. The hot steam helps kill the germs that are causing problems as well as clears out the congestion by loosening it up. The steam also helps reduce inflammation of your nasal lining. People who suffer from chronic congestion should stick with regular inhaling.


People often underestimate the power of drinking lots of fluids. Drinking fluids ensures that your body does not suffer from dehydration.  It also ensures that the mucus does not get blocked inside of your nose and inflame the area.  Warm water and even tea can help thin the mucus. Drinking hot soups helps relieve nasal blockage as well as various referred sinus pains such as teeth, ear and eye pains. Fluids help flush out the toxins which have built up inside of your body. Regular use of the SinuPulse Elite® can dramatically clear your sinuses and provide quick and effective relief.
