As the leaves change colors and the air turns crisp, many of us eagerly embrace the
beauty of fall. However, for those who suffer from fall allergies, this season can bring

culprits that trigger allergy symptoms during autumn. If you’re seeking relief from fall
allergies without relying on medications, look no further than Edge of the Woods Market,

flushing and discuss some herbs that can help alleviate your fall allergy symptoms

Sinus Flush: A Natural Approach to Allergy Relief
Sinus flushing, also known as nasal irrigation or nasal rinsing, is a simple and effective
method to relieve allergy symptoms. It involves flushing out irritants, allergens, and
mucus from your nasal passages, providing quick relief from congestion, sneezing, and
sinus pressure. Here’s how to do it naturally:
Saline Solution: Start by mixing a saline solution, which can be easily made at home
using distilled water and non-iodized salt. You can also find pre-made saline solutions at
Edge of the Woods. The saline solution helps soothe your nasal passages and wash
away allergens.
Neti Pot or Nasal Rinse Bottle: You’ll need a neti pot or a nasal rinse bottle for the actual
sinus flush. These devices allow you to pour the saline solution into one nostril and let it
flow out through the other, effectively cleansing your nasal passages.
Proper Technique: Follow the instructions carefully when using a neti pot or nasal rinse
bottle to ensure a comfortable and effective sinus flush.
