Natural remedies for sinus pressure and infection might be a better alternative to professional treatment or over-the-counter medication. Physicians and patients have been increasingly sounding the alarm about overusing antibiotics, as they can cause harmful side effects and even help bacteria become more resistant. Some people choose to turn to shots, steroids, and even surgery for chronic issues, but for the majority of people, natural ways to clear sinuses and treat pressure or infection can work quickly and effectively.

There are a few common causes of sinus problems, like allergies, climate, and even personal anatomy, but they all share the underlying issue of mucus not draining properly. That buildup can cause discomfort or infection, so it’s a good idea to keep it in check. If you’re looking for a natural treatment for sinus infection or other sinus problems, look no further.

Steam

Warming your face and chest up with steam is one of the easiest natural remedies for sinus pressure. It’s been used for centuries to decongest mucus and dispel dry coughs. Simply cover your head and lean over a pot of steaming water. Other ingredients can be added for better effect, and Baraka Steam oil draws from that knowledge with fast-acting ingredients proven to work. The niaouli in the oil acts as an expectorant and decongestant, while eucalyptus supports the respiratory tract and provides antibacterials as a natural treatment for fighting sinus infection before and after it sets in.

Nasal Irrigation

A powerful and natural way to clear sinuses is to irrigate your nasal passages manually. This can be done with a Baraka neti pot, a saline rinse made with our Baraka Mineral Salt Rinse, and gravity. The process calls for filling the pot with distilled or boiling water cooled to room temperature, stirring in a ½ teaspoon of salt, and breathing through your mouth as you tip the solution into one nostril and it drains out of the other.

This can be done multiple times a day through the duration of a cold to liquefy mucus and flush infection, or any time as part of your health regimen when you feel that your body needs it. Allergy sufferers can do this once a day to flush out pollen and other irritants, while anyone else feeling congested and wanting a natural treatment to stave off a sinus infection will also benefit.

Baraka Dry Nose Oils

A dry climate can inhibit the production of mucus in your sinuses, giving free rein for bacteria, viruses, allergens, and pollutants to wreak havoc on your immune system. Our Baraka Dry Nose oil will help. It’s a combination of sesame oil and essential oils to soothe the dryness. In addition, sesame oil stimulates the cilia, which is critical in maintaining good sinus health. Think of it like a lotion for the nasal passages. Inspired by Ayurvedic medicine, this blend contains organic sesame oil and the essential oils of Cardamom, Everlast, German chamomile and Roman chamomile. Baraka Dry Nose Oil have time-tested ingredients like sesame seed oil, chamomile, everlast, green myrtle, peppermint, and other natural remedies for sinus pressure alleviation.

All of these methods have been used as natural remedies for alleviating sinus pressure and infection for centuries. Even in this age of high-end medicine, people still find them the most effective.
