Neti Pot Users Swear This Funny Contraption Cures Everything from Migraines to Sinus Pain.  But Does It Really Work? We Review It.

Products Reviewed:

• Neti Pot (from SinuCleanse®)
• SinuCleanse® Squeeze^TM

Manufacturer: SinuCleanse
MSRP: $14.99 (Neti Pot); $10.99 (SinuCleanse Squeeze)
Place of Purchase: CVS, Amazon.com

Neti Pot & SinuCleanse Squeeze Pros:

• Provides natural sinus relief from congestion, pressure and pain
• Reduced post-cold sinus pain, pressure, and headaches
• Reduced runny nose and itching from household allergies
• Improved taste and smell
• Good directions
• Developed by an M.D. and ear, nose and throat specialist
• Accomplished what over-the-counter decongestants provide, without resorting to any medication

Neti Pot & SinuCleanse Cons:

• Takes a little practice to get used to squirting water up your nose
• “Grossness” factor: This thing works, but again, you are squirting water up your nose and letting it drain out the other side. Probably not something you want to perform in front of that new girlfriend or boyfriend. Or your spouse. Or your family.
• Neti Pot seems less effective at clearing badly congested nose during a cold. However, the SinuCleanse Squeeze does the trick.
