What we thought: Unfortunately, I suffer from frequent sinusitis and year round allergies. Fortunately, Ocean Saline Nasal care has an entire line of non-medicated relief for all of my sinus/allergy issues! I have tried several sinus irrigation methods and the Ocean Sinus Irrigation is definitely the most effective and immediate method I've tried. Seriously, instant results! I used this amazing product before bed and noticed a bit of a sore throat the morning after for the first few days, but after that, no side effects at all...and a minor sore throat was nothing compared to the pressure I felt before the irrigation...definite relief:) The Saline Nasal Spray is great too because you can use differently depending on the relief you need. I love that these products are safe to use on a daily basis and they really do provide relief without drying out your nasal passages. I also love that they have a special product just for kids that is a wonderful non-medicated option for when the little ones get stuffy, which is guaranteed to happen a least once this cold and flu season. If you suffer from allergies, sinusitis or colds during the winter season or any time of year, Ocean has a product to help:) ABCD Diaries gives Ocean Nasal Care an A+!
