It is gross if you think about it too much, but I've heard from others that it feels really good and helps breathing. Maybe it would help my headaches. I should look into getting one of those.....

I swear by it!

In the past five years thanks to other stuff too I would be basically continuously sick with cold &/or flu on top of everything but the mix of being off one med and using the Neti pot made my life gloriously better.

plus my sinuses have been clearer than I can remember in decades. Mike had the two week bad bout of flu back in January and I barely got it (which is basically unheard of). wonderful little investment.

and the head tilt- one trick I learned.... emphasis is bringing your ear to your shoulder with a SLIGHT tilt forward and less about bringing the head/neck forward (do it some but not overly). I find if I lean too far forward and it doesn't flow through as well. granted it could work differently for someone elses orifices.

Thanks! I tried it again last night and I'm a bit well, let's just say I need more practice, lol. Still like it though, glad to hear someone else is on the bandwagon :)
