Hydrates and Reduces Pain Associated With Dry Nose!
Whether you live in an arid climate, are constitutionally dry or suffer from the dry-out of winter, our Dry Nose Oil will hydrate the nasal passages and help to decrease the chance of infection. Inspired by Ayurvedic medicine, this blend contains organic sesame oil and the essential oils of Cardamom, Everlast, German chamomile and Roman chamomile.
What Is A Dry Nose?
Dry nose occurs when there is a reduction of mucus in the sinus cavities. If overly dry, people may find it painful to breathe, experience nose bleeds and increase their chance of infection. This condition is often the result of low humidity in the air. Think of it like dry skin- but unlike our skin, the sinuses can become a breeding ground for infection. Our Dry Nose formula is, in a sense, a lotion for the sinus cavities.
Who Gets Dry Nose?
Anyone who kicks on their heater during the winter, is constitutionally dry, takes a plane ride or lives in an arid region. High altitudes and deserts have humidity levels that can be less than 25%. Winter heaters and airplanes reduce the humidity to 15% or lower. When you breathe in air that has low humidity, nasal mucous membranes dry up, and this prevents the cilia from moving efficiently.
Humidity in your home should stay between 35-45%. With the correct humidity, the sinuses remain hydrated and easily rid themselves of infection and particulate matter such as pollen or dust. How do your know if your home is too dry? Snap your bedroom sheets and see if they spark!
