General instructions for use
To ensure that the treatment has the desired effect, please fol-
low the instructions below:
– In order for the aerosol to reach all regions of the nose and
paranasal sinuses, the nose must be clear. If your nose is
blocked, rinse it beforehand using a nasal douche for ex-
ample. If necessary, use a product designed to reduce
swelling.
– The aerosol that is generated during nebulisation should
only be delivered to the nose and paranasal sinuses. There-
fore, the soft palate
nasal cavity and the mouth and throat – must be closed.
Tips for closing the soft palate
To close your soft palate, say the three letters "ing" as one
word for as long as possible. After a short breathing pause, re-
peat this as often as necessary until the treatment is complete.
When you make certain sound combinations such as "ing"
and when you swallow, the "soft palate" closes and separates
the nasal cavity from the mouth and throat automatically.
Alternatively, you can breathe in and out slowly and deliber-
ately through your mouth, as if attempting to blow a candle out
(i.e. do not breathe through your nose). However, this method
of closing the soft palate is not easy to perform for everybody,
and some practice may be required.
While the soft palate is closed and you are holding your breath,
the aerosol flows into the paranasal sinuses. Your nostrils will
vibrate a little.
Caution: If the soft palate is not closed properly, some of the
aerosol will end up in your mouth and throat. One sign of
this is that the nostrils do not vibrate. In this case, it is pos-
sible that not enough saline solution or medication is reach-
ing the paranasal sinuses.
4) The soft palate is the extension of the hard palate.
