@honestmyo: Are you actually getting your nasal spray where it needs to go? A lot of people spray it straight UP or toward the middle of the nose… and then wonder why they taste it running down the back of their throat. 😬 Here is how I would recommend using it instead: 1️⃣ Blow your nose first Clear out mucus so the spray has a better chance of reaching the nasal tissue. 2️⃣ Keep your head in a neutral or slightly forward position You don't need to tilt your head way back. 3️⃣ Aim slightly OUTWARD For the left nostril, angle toward the left outer wall. For the right nostril, angle toward the right outer wall. Think: away from the middle wall of your nose (your septum). 4️⃣ Spray while taking a gentle breath in through your nose Don't take a huge sniff or suck it into the back of your throat. 5️⃣ Let it sit If anything drips out, gently dab underneath your nose instead of immediately blowing it all back out. The goal is to get the spray onto the tissue inside your nose rather than running down the back of your throat. Nasal hygiene is one of the FIRST things I work on in myofunctional therapy because it's pretty hard to build a nasal-breathing habit if you can't breathe through your nose to begin with. #NasalSprayTips #NasalHygiene #MyofunctionalTherapy #HealthyBreathing #BreatheBetter
