1. Prepare the Saline Solution:

• Dissolve non-iodized salt (about half a teaspoon) in warm, distilled water (about a cup). Ensure that the salt is fully dissolved.

2. Choose the Right Neti Pot:

• Use a specially designed neti pot. It typically has a spout that fits comfortably in one nostril.

3. Position Yourself:

• Stand over a sink or basin. Tilt your head to the side, and keep it at a slight angle so that your forehead is higher than your chin.

4. Insert the Spout:

• Gently insert the spout of the neti pot into the upper nostril. Ensure a good seal so that water doesn’t leak.
