3 Application
Note:
You can rinse via either nostril. To rinse the left nostril, hold the nasal douche in
your left hand. To rinse the right nostril, hold the nasal douche in your right hand.
In the following, nasal rinsing via the right nostril will be described.
Image 6
• Hold the filled nasal douche in your right hand; place your right index finger
on the valve (4).
• With your left hand, turn the nasal insert (1) to the rinse position (flow sym-
bol).
Image 7
• Bend your head slightly forwards over the wash basin and open your mouth
wide.
• Breathe gently in and out through your mouth.
• Place the nasal insert for the PARI MONTESOL nasal douche over your right
nostril, so that the nostril is completely sealed.
• Now turn your head slightly to the left.
• Press the valve (4) with your index finger, which is resting on the douche.
Rinsing will begin. The nasal rinse solution flows in through the nostril,
through the nasal cavity, and back out through your other nostril.
• You can stop rinsing at any time by taking your index finger off the valve.
At the end of rinsing, a small quantity of the solution will be left in the nasal
douche.
What to do if the rinse solution runs into the throat?
Small quantities of nasal rinse solution can always flow into the throat. If you tilt
the head slightly forwards and to one side while rinsing, this small quantity will
flow quite naturally out of your mouth.
If larger quantities pass into the throat, either your soft palate is not closed or
the nasal passage on the other side is so congested that the rinse solution can-
not flow back. If the first is true, remember to open your mouth wide, and if nec-
essary shift the position of your head slightly over the wash basin. If the problem
is congestion, stop rinsing and begin again through the other nostril.
