Do you suffer from hay fever, a cold, or do you have trouble breathing? The neti pot offers quick and natural relief.

Jala Neti Kriya is an Ayurvedic practice that involves rinsing the nose with salt water. It has been done in India for centuries and can provide relief from hay fever, allergies, colds, or difficulty breathing. After using a neti pot you may notice that you can breathe easier through your nose and that your forehead feels free. For this reason, neti is also used within different movements of yoga. The ritual promotes clarity of mind and serves as a good addition to the practice of yoga or meditation.
