What is Asthma?

Asthma is a common lung condition in which your airways narrow and swell and may produce extra mucus. This can make breathing difficult, causing shortness of breath, coughing, chest tightness, and wheezing when you breathe out. Asthma often starts in childhood, however it can be developed at any age. In the UK, 5.4 million people have the condition.

What triggers asthma?

There a different reasons asthma can be triggered, and the triggers can vary from person to person. Some triggers include:

  • Hormonal changes
  • Colds and viruses
  • Stress
  • Allergies
  • Dust mites
  • Smoke
  • Pests
  • Pollution
  • Different foods
  • Medications
  • Exercise

How nasal irrigation can relieve symptoms of Asthma

Regular nasal irrigation can help reduce the severity of Asthma by dealing with the triggers. Asthma can be brought on by many things, including pollens, dust and air pollution, as well as during the night from nasal and sinus drainage. Sinus irrigation clears out the nose and sinuses, removing many of the potential irritants of Asthma and greatly reducing the likeliness of an onset or Asthma attack. Here’s some other ways it helps:

  • Removes mucus from the nose, which makes medication more effective.
  • Removes any allergens or irritants from the nasal passages, preventing them from triggering asthma.
  • Flushes out bacteria and viruses, which reduces the likelihood of infection.
  • Reduces inflammation and swelling, which increases airflow.

Nebulisers

At Intus Healthcare we offer a complete range of mains-powered and portable nebuliser machines from leading manufacturers to use at home or away.

A nebuliser is a device that delivers quick-acting medications, converting them from a liquid form to a fine mist that can be inhaled. A nebuliser can administer a high dose of medication quickly and easily helping to relax the airways to make it easier to breathe.

Nebulisers are most associated with respiratory conditions such as asthma and COPD, as they allow medicines to reach the lungs quickly and easily even if the patient’s breathing capacity is limited.

It’s not just good for Asthma

While nasal irrigation can be hugely beneficial for those with Asthma, it is also important for your general health. Regular sinus irrigation will keep your nasal passages and sinuses clear, moisturised and healthy. Not only does it flush out bacteria and viruses once you have an infection, but it also removes them before they have a chance to enter your system. Dry, inflamed nasal passages are also more susceptible to infection and viruses so keeping them clear, healthy and moisturised gives you the best possible chance of avoiding sinusitis and many other illnesses such as the common cold and flu.

 

Introducing the SinuPulse Elite Nasal Irrigator

Nasal irrigation, or neti, has been around for thousands of years and is a widely practised form of treatment for a range of conditions. The SinuPulse Elite takes neti to the next level making it far easier, quicker and more effective than traditional sinus irrigation. The SinuPulse lets you keep your head upright and does the hard work for you. You simply use the small jet irrigator to flush out the worst, and then use the spray tip to reach the areas that would ordinarily be out of reach for regular netipots and sprays. The SinuPulse offers the most comprehensive sinus irrigation possible, giving more noticeable and longer lasting relief.

How the SinuPulse works

The key to the SinuPulse Elite is its pulsating mechanism, which help stimulate the body in-built ciliary flow. The cilia are designed to prevent blockages and keep your airways free, but the nose can be so congested that they cannot move. The SinuPulse clears out the blockages, and stimulates the cilia back into action, ensuring both a comprehensive irrigation and also long-lasting relief, as the nasal passages can once again defend themselves.

The SinuPulse comes with a unique spray tip so once your regular irrigation is complete, you can use the spray tip to gently moisturise your nasal passages and infiltrate areas that are hard to reach, removing any lingering bacteria or mucus that any regular irrigator simply cannot reach. It ensures that your nasal passages are as clear, sanitised and healthy as can be in minuets!

 

SinuAir Salts Included

The SinuPulse Elite now comes supplied with a month’s supply of SinuAir salts. SinuAir is a 100% natural saline solution which provides the most effective relief possible. The nasal salts are noticeably quicker to dissolve than many alternatives, and its entirely natural composition is in contrast to the synthetic substances used in many over-the-counter saline products. For optimal results from your SinuPulse Elite, it is recommended to use SinuAir Nasal Salts at all times. You can browse the SinuAir range of products by clicking here.
