*put 2 drops of SHADBINDU TAILAM into your nostrils and after that you will feel that oil into your throat so spit that after gargling with lukewarm water +saindhav lavana.
*If you can do KUNJAL KRIYA THEN Do this twice in a week.
*Daily Steam inhalation with a capsule of HALIN DROPS of NAGARJUNA.

Addressing sinus and related nasal issues from an Ayurvedic perspective requires focusing on balancing your body’s doshas—especially kapha, which is often aggravated in sinus problems. First, it’s great that you’re trying jal neti, as it cleanses the nasal passages effectively. But, consistency is key for any remedy to show full benefits, so aim for a regular practice of 3-4 times per week.
Your symptoms suggest a kapha imbalance, often triggered by certain foods and lifestyle habits. Make dietary changes by reducing kapha-aggravating foods like heavy, oily, and fried items, including chips. Try to favor warm, light, and easily digestible foods. Incorporating spices such as ginger, black pepper, and turmeric can be beneficial. These not only enhance digestion but also clear excess mucus.
Steam inhalation with eucalyptus or peppermint oil can provide significant relief. Do this once in the evening to open nasal passages and reduce congestion. Ensure you cover your head with a towel for better results.
A traditional remedy involves consuming a mix of honey and a pinch of cinnamon powder. Take this mixture on an empty stomach each morning—it can help reduce inflammation and clear respiratory passages.
For an Ayurvedic medicinal approach, consider Trikatu churna—a combination of ginger, long pepper, and black pepper. Take 1/4 teaspoon with honey thrice daily for improved results. Consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner before starting, to confirm suitability for your constitution.
A consistent morning routine (dinacharya) involving waking up early, oil pulling, and mild yoga or brisk walking is beneficial. This not only helps regulate kapha but enhances overall bodily function.
Finally, practice pranayama exercises such as Bhastrika and Anulom Vilom for 15-20 minutes daily. They boost lung capacity and promote easier breathing. By addressing potential kapha triggers and maintaining these practices, you’ll likely see gradual, sustained improvements in your sinus health.
Sinus issues, especially when related to sneezing and sensitivity to certain foods, are often linked to imbalances in the Kapha dosha. Here’s how you can address this imbalance using Siddha-Ayurvedic practices. While Jal Neti is beneficial, consistency is key; however, I understand it’s not feasible to do it daily. Instead, try incorporating other practices alongside.
Focus on dietary modifications: Minimize cold, damp, and heavy foods like chips which aggravate Kapha. Include warming spices in your diet, such as ginger, black pepper, and turmeric, which help balance Kapha and can aid in clearing sinus congestion.
Nasal application: Anu Tailam, a traditional Ayurvedic nasal oil, might help. Place a few drops in each nostril in the morning and evening. This practice can help lubricate the nasal passages and reduce irritation.
Steam inhalation: Use a few drops of eucalyptus oil or dried ginger powder in a bowl of hot water and inhale the steam. This can be effective in clearing blockages anytime you feel congested.
Avoid dairy products as they increase Kapha production and can worsen sinus blockage and sneezing. Instead, focus on warm foods and avoid refrigerated items.
Daily habits: Practicing Neti every alternate day may still be beneficial. Combine this with Pranayama such as Kapalabhati, which aids in cleansing respiratory passages. Do it in the morning on an empty stomach.
If your condition persists or worsens, it might be a sign of a more complex problem requiring the attention of an Ayurvedic practitioner or a healthcare professional. It’s important to address persistent symptoms and rule out any serious conditions.
