All-Natural Sinus Remedies

Sinus problems plague many people. They can cause headache, runny nose, post nasal drip and even ear and throat pain. Fortunately, it is rather easy to relieve sinus pain without medical intervention. All-natural sinus pain is often just as, if not more, effective as many of the conventional methods.

Cleanse

• Cleansing the sinus passages with a sinus cleansing system can effectively relieve sinus pain and unblock heavy congestion. These systems use a natural saline solution to gentle unblock congestion and remove debris. They are safe and mild and can be used several times daily if needed.

Hydrate

• Sinus pain is often the result of mucus build-up or congestion. Congestion can be thinned when the body has enough water to do so. Make sure you drink at least 8 glasses of water daily to keep things flowing smoothly.

Moist Heat

• Moist heat is also great for people looking for all-natural sinus relief. You can get moist from the steam generated by a shower or bath or by using a warm mist vaporizer or humidifier. Steam relieves sinus pressure by moisturizing and opening up the sinus passages.

Aromatherapy

• Certain scents are known for opening the nasal passages. Things, like eucalyptus, peppermint and rosemary can be used in a diffuser or candle to help relieve congestion and pressure. You can also find soaps and bath oils that work the same.
