SinuPulse Elite Advanced Nasal Irrigation System with 30 SinuAir Saline Packets, Pulsating Nasal Congestion Relief & Sinus Rinse Machine

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.

I BOUGHT THIS A LONG TIME AGO. I WAS HAVING BROILERS BREATHING AT NIGHT. DURING THE WINTER WHEN HEATING WAS HIGH MY NOSE FELT BLOCKED. IF I LAY IN BED I WOULD WAKEN UNABLE 5O BREATH THROUGH MY NOSE.
