Thought for the week ~ “Reconnecting with one’s breathing is the first step in the direction of self-healing and self-realization ” ~ Dr. Peter M. Litchfield
Springtime + high pollen count = sinus, facial pain, and pressure. Yes, it is that time of the year again. I woke up to an alert on the phone saying pollen count is medium in my area today. From pain in the face to having a loss of smell, sinus issues can be very distracting and make you feel pretty awful.
Here are a few things to try to naturally relieve facial pain and pressure~
- Take a hot shower, add a few drops of peppermint essential oil to the bottom of the shower.
- The nose is the body’s air filter, keep it clear with sinus rinse, neti pot, or navage. (see more here from WebMD) I love the Navage and use it daily
- Sinus massage to relieve pain and pressure helps promote drainage from the sinuses and ease congestion, and all you need for this home remedy are your fingers. Here is a video to try.
- Did you know acupuncture can help treat all forms of sinusitis? Acupuncture provides anti-inflammatory effects on the body, that help reduce the inflammation in the sinus cavities and decrease pain levels. Acupuncture can help with the existing congestion and strengthen the immune system.
