Is it safe for children to use the Narial Nasal Cup? brand neti pot?

Narial Nasal Cups - Jala Neti Pot - Allergy & Sinus
Nasal irrigation has been recommended by medical practitioners in this country for over 100 years and has been used in some other countries for over 5000 years! If your child is old enough to cooperate in the use of nasal irrigation and it is used correctly, there is no danger. We recommend the plastic version of the Narial Nasal Cup? neti pot for children because it is unbreakable and the spout is slightly smaller and may be a more comfortable fit for a child's nostrils.

Will my health insurance cover a Narial Nasal Cup? sinus irrigation device?

Narial Nasal Cups - Jala Neti Pot - Allergy & Sinus
Nasal irrigation with The Narial Nasal Cup? brand neti pot, when done properly, is comfortable and refreshing. The main reason it might sting or burn is that the salt is not measured accurately. When the resevoir is full, a level 1/4 teaspoon of salt is exactly the right amount to make the solution the same salinity as your body tissues. Too much, or even too little, salt can cause the solution to be abrasive. Be sure the salt is dissolved completely.

Will the Neti pot be a good thing to use if I have an ear problem?

There exist far too many possibilities of "ear problems" to answer such a general question. You should ask that question of an ear, nose and throat specialist. If they recommend that regular nasal irrigation would be a good thing for you to do for your condition, then yes, Jala Neti will be an effective practice to adopt.

Can I use the microwave for warming the solution in the nasal rinsing pot?

If you warm the saline solution in the nasal rinsing pot in the microwave it becomes much hotter in the spout than in other parts of the pot, and you may scald your nose. Therefore it is safer to warm the water to the right lukewarm temperature before you pour it into the nasal rinsing pot.

What are the benefits of using the ALKLALOL NASAL CUP?

FAQ - The Alkalol Company
The ALKLALOL NASAL CUP may be a more sterile option than products delivered by spray, bottle or bulb syringe. In fact, a recent clinical study demonstrated that nasal cups ("nasal pots") grew only half the bacteria of that in bulb syringes used for nasal irrigation. In addition, correct use of the ALKLALOL NASAL CUP distributes the solution more effectively than certain other delivery methods. Because of this, ALKALOL can reach, cleanse and soothe more irritated regions of the sinuses.

I've been using a Neti Pot for years, how is Nasaline? different from the Neti Pot?

Nasaline - Tropical Traditions
With Nasaline?, the user actually controls the amount of pressure used, depending on the level of congestion. The patented silicon tip provides for a complete seal to the nostril, preventing any saline solution from pouring back through the same nostril for a more effective nasal wash. Also, because you don't rely on gravity with Nasaline? (as with a neti pot), you don't have to tilt your head awkwardly to the side, you simply stand upright, leaning slightly forward over your sink.

Why should I first run the tap for a half to one minute before filling the nasal rinsing pot?

You prevent any bacteria which might be on the tap from getting into the rinsing solution by first running the lukewarm water for about a half to one minute before filling the pot. In some rare cases germs (e. g. legionella) might invade the hot water system (i. e. in showers) if the boiler always only heats the water up to a temperature of maximally 140?F (60?C). If you heat the water in the boiler to above 140?F (60?C) once a week these bacteria will be destroyed.

Is Simple Solution safe to use around young children and animals?

SimpleSolution
Simple Solution is safe and contains no hazardous ingredients. It is made with a natural bacteria/enzyme formula with a blend of mild surfactants and a small amount of isopropyl alcohol that helps the product evaporate and dry quicker. If a dog or cat walks over the wet area that has been treated and licks its paws, there is no need for concern.

Can I use other brand servos?

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The one exception is the old style (non z type) Airtronics. Those receivers and servos can be used with other equipment but you have to swap the positive and negative wires. When connecting a Futaba servo or gyro to another brand it is necessary to remove the 'key' from the plug. That is the flat piece on the side of the connector. I just use standard diagonal cutters to cut that piece off. They are very accurate and are making micro corrections constantly to obtain an exact position.
