Homemade Sinus Rinse

‘Tis the season for sinus troubles and allergy frustrations. Stuffy noses abound and can be irritating and painful. Most of the time, the solution to these nasal problems is a sinus rinse. This homemade sinus rinse is made with sea salt and baking soda, and is painless and effective.

“All of the sudden, I was getting headaches every day. The kind of headache that’s always there, just bad enough that without taking a OTC pain reliever you’re totally miserable.

I remember sitting in the doctors office crying because I was so exhausted from always having a headache. I just wanted them to STOP.

There was no obvious reason for my headaches and I didn’t have any other symptoms. But we ran lots of tests anyway just to make sure.

I was shocked when my doctor handed me a prescription for an allergy medication and although I wasn’t as educated or as health conscious as a I now – the idea of taking a prescription drug for allergies didn’t sound right, since there was no other conversation regarding allergies. Of course I refused.. but my doctor explained that she agreed with me that no I shouldn’t take a drug without reason, however she thought that MAYBE it would help, maybe I had allergies that were causing my headache, after all I was taking OTC pain relievers anyway.

So I figured what the heck – it’s short term and MAYBE it will help….

OMG.

Seriously, my headache went away and never came back. It was life altering.

After 2 weeks of blissful relief I went back to the Dr for my follow up, I was so excited to tell her that my headaches were GONE.”
