SinuPulse Elite Advanced Nasal Irrigation System with 30 SinuAir Saline Packets, Pulsating Nasal Congestion Relief & Sinus Rinse Machine, More Effective Than Neti Pot or Nose Spray

I rarely take the time to write a review on Amazon, but decided to make an exception for the benefit of my fellow sinus problem sufferers. I have had sinus problems for about 4 years now, and have had a total of 3 surgeries to help them drain, with pretty limited success. I decided to purchase an irrigation system after having it recommended by my ENT. After reviewing my choices, I read the reviews for both the Grossman and the SinuPulse and decided on the SinuPulse after reading reviews that said the Grossman stopped working after several months and that the SinuPulse has a 2 year warranty. I have had my SinuPulse for 11 months as of today. A week or so ago, my irrigator began to have trouble sitting in the bottom, and the water was coming out more like a drip then a stream, after 11 months of daily use. I emailed customer service and they called me back a few hours later, on a holiday no less. The representative told me that if I used a little Vaseline on the O ring underneath the tank, it would fix the problem. If not, then we could figure out if I needed a new one. He said that the O ring dries out from all the saline and I should do the Vaseline trick a few times a year. I tried it and my machine is now working perfectly again. I was so impressed with the service I decided to write a review. Now for the good part- my sinuses are much better! This is not a miracle cure, however, as long as I use this daily, I have had maybe one sinus infection in the last 11 months, whereas I used to get them almost monthly. I will share with you my "secret" sinus rinse recipe that keeps my sinuses under control: First saline, I prefer the Xtra Strength kind from NeilMed, it comes in a green package. Then, I add Alkalol, a mucous solvent (just a little) to the saline powder. If I feel a sinus infection coming on, I will also add some Xylitol and a few drops of grapefruit seed extract (GSE). GSE is a natural antibiotic. Now these add-ins may sting slightly at first, so you may need to increase the amounts slowly. I find that if I even miss irrigation for one day I am extremely congested and miserable the next day, so don't skip! During allergy season sometimes I will rinse twice a day. All in all, this is a wonderful product that I highly recommend for anyone with allergy/sinus trouble. I wonder if I would have been able to avoid some of my surgeries if I had started irrigating every day when my sinus problems started. It is totally worth it for the money, not to mention all I'm saving on doctors visits and antibiotics! Update: I have now had this machine for 5 YEARS and it is still going strong! Cannot recommend it enough!

This product is amazing! I bought the sinus pulse after I had been on antibiotics for a sinus infection for an entire month and it still wouldn't go away. I suffered from daily headaches even though I used my regular sinus squeeze bottle daily. As soon as I bought this product, I could tell a difference from using the sinus squeeze bottle. Shortly after purchasing the product, I went to my allergist who recommended that I use Pulmicort (generic: budesonide; liquid steriod) in my saline water (just put the entire vial into the full 20 ounces of salt water). The next day, everything started to drain from my sinuses. I won't go into gory detail, but everything gross that was causing my headache finally came out over the next 3-4 days. Note: FDA use for Pulicort is intended to be used as an inhaled steriod in a nebulizer. However, when used as a sinus rinse, it is similiar to Naxonex, but it works much better to get deep into your sinus cavaties. New studies have been done on using Pulmicort in sinus rinses: ([...]) Ever since then, I have been using my sinus pulse two times daily, and I use a vial of Pulmicort either every day or every other day. I also use 3-4 drops of grape fruit seed extra (GSE) concentrate into my salt water once a day which is supposed to help naturally kill bacteria. If you suffer from sinus headaches or sinus infections, BUY THIS PRODUCT! Also, I highly recommend going to an ear, nose, and throat specialist to check the anatomy of your sinuses. I had a deviated septum which caused my frequent sinus problems. The sinus pulse and Pulicort together were able to clear everything even with my deviated septum, but it was always very hard to maintain a perfectly clear sinus passage. I had surgery a couple months back, but I still use my sinus pulse daily. I honestly can't imagine not cleaning out the gunk from the sinuses. It just seems gross to me now considering what I see coming out every day! One thing to point out: If you have a cold and your nose is blocked, do NOT use this product. It can actually push the virus from your sinuses into your ears causes an ear infection--I know because it's happened to me twice until I finally figured it out. If your nose is blocked, I first recommend to use an oral decongestant (guaifinisen and pseudophedrine work best for me) with a spray decongestant (4-way or Afrin but for NO LONGER than 3 days). This will open up your nasal passages and then you can do the sinus rinse, but do it VERY GENTLY. You don't want to feel it in your ears because then there will be a chance of the virus getting into your ears. Unfortunately, I have found no natural or OTC pill method to clear an ear infection and I'm pretty sure I tried just about everything. If you are like me and you have major sinus troubles and you hate antibiotics, this product is for you. The sinus rinse bottle (even combined with the pulmicort steriod) still doesn't prevent my chronic sinus issues. I got lazy for a few weeks and stopped using my SinusPulse and started using the sinus bottle (still twice daily. However, laziness turned into a sinus infection in my Maxillary sinuses and now I am using my SinusPulse and Pulmicort to cure it without antibiotics or oral steriods. I realized that even when my sinuses "seem" clear, I can't go too long with my sinus pulse or I will end up with issues. I trust this product and I highly recommend it.

Powerful Flush!!! I am a long-time user of the Naväge nasal irrigation system, but I recently began looking for a more cost-effective alternative. Because I suffer from severe chronic allergies, daily sinus rinsing is a non-negotiable part of my routine to keep symptoms at bay. However, the cost of Naväge’s proprietary salt pods has become quite expensive over time. I was intrigued by the SinuPulse Elite because it does not require specialized pods, allowing for much cheaper long-term use. After testing it out, I’ve found that the machine performs very well, though it is significantly messier than the Naväge, which uses a closed-loop suction system. The SinuPulse comes with its own salt packets, and the difference in power is immediate. The pressure is much stronger than my previous machine, pushing deep into the nasal passages to thoroughly flush out allergens. I did experience one minor issue: after my first use, I felt a slight pain in my right ear, likely because the pressure pushed water into my Eustachian tube. Fortunately, the discomfort cleared up within two days, and I haven't had the issue since. Maintenance is straightforward; the removable water reservoir makes cleaning the unit very easy. Overall, I would recommend this machine, rating it a 7 out of 10.

普通に使えます 前回も同じものを買いましたが3年間使えました 当時は12800円でしたが、今回な22800円でした 商品は品質も良く買ってよかったです

Lo que me gusta de este producto es los resultados ques estoy teniendo en mi tratamiento. Lo compre por prescripción médica.

Ho atteso qualche settimana per essere sicuro ma devo dire che questa macchina mi ha aiutato molto a combattere la sinusite ed i miei problemi connessi al naso. L'utilizzo non è né complicato né fastidioso ed in poco tempo diventa un'abitudine.

I have suffered from chronic sinusitis (on and off) for about 5 years now but, since moving to Shanghai last year, I have been suffering constantly. Without wanting to be too graphic, it was like having chewing gum stuffed in to my sinuses and not being able to get it out without massive doses of antibiotics, steroid sprays, sudafed pills and spray and the squeezy bottle with salt solution. All these, however, barely managed to reduce the symptoms enough for me to consider myself healthy again. I went from stuffy to completely blocked - never totally free and clear. Until this. I brought it while on a visit back to the UK out of desperation as nothing else has worked. I've been using it twice a day for about 2 to 3 weeks and have now reduced to once daily for the past 2 weeks. 5 weeks of treatment in total and I am pretty much symptom free. I use it with warm, distilled or pre-boiled water and it really does work a treat. To begin with, I'd have to use the Sudafed spray just to release enough pressure to be able to flush at all. I was so blocked that the squeezey bottle just wouldn't force the solution all the way through and would just leak everywhere. I no longer need any medications at all. I use it religiously, even when all appears well, and it's amazing what it actually gets flushed out each night. I never knew quite how blocked I was. It sounds as though I work for the company, having just re-read this review. I NEVER leave reviews either but am so relieved that I have found a solution. And a drug-free one too!!! I will travel with the squeezey bottle but I think I will be using the Sinupulse Elite every night for the foreseeable future. It's sooooo nice to be able to breathe properly, not snore as much (according to my wife), not suffer with as many allergies, not take all the drugs and not wake up feeling like someone has stuffed cotton wool in my mouth and more chewing gum up my nose. Sorry, but it's absolutely true. Every single word. I may even buy a spare as I live in China right now. I can't bare the thought of having to go back to the drugs if something happened to my machine. I did have one small issue. One of the little "arms" snapped. It could have been weakened during shipping or something but their customer service has been outstanding and I have a new one in the post as we speak after just a couple of days from my initial email. I cannot say enough (as you can likely tell by now!) about the Sinupulse Elite. I'm symptom free for the first time in a very long time and it was well worth the financial leap of faith that I took. But even with the price and the salts (which I find somewhat superior to the ones that came with my old Squeezey bottle), it HAS to be cheaper than all those doctors visits, prescriptions, sudafed spray and pills, endless boxes of tissues. I think I've made my point. If you're suffering from Sinusitis, BUY THIS MACHINE and find something else to complain about. It won't be sinuses.

鼻アレルギーの、クシャミ、鼻水、鼻腔の痒みで、困っています。以前は、鼻クリーンEXを、使用しましたが、1年で、ポンプの戻りが、悪くなり、再度購入しましたが、また、1年で、同じ故障、安くない物なので、今度は、写真左の、チューブで、安いし、潰れないから、これでいいかと思い、しばらくつかいましたが、水の勢いが、強すぎて、かえって鼻腔を刺激し、クシャミが、暫く止まらなくなり、また、鼻腔の痒みも、治まらなかった。今回、少し高いとおもいましたが、使ってみて、水圧も、ちょうとよく、アレルギー症状も、緩和してます。まだつかいはじめたばかりですが、非常に具合が、良く、買って良かったと思います。後は、耐久性が、どうかですが、今のところは、大変気に入ってます。説明書も、日本語訳の物が詳しくかかれていて、親切だとおもいました。
