The BlogHer Spring Allergies Program sweepstakes runs from March 14,
2012 to May 13, 2012 and is only open to individuals who, at the time
of entry deadline, are legal residents of the United States and are 18
years or older.
The folks at Similasan recently sent their Nasal Allergy Relief
my way. Its homeopathic mist is supposed to help runny noses, sneezing
and other allergy-related annoyances. Sign me up. I hadn’t used it
before, but I like that it is a chemical and preservative free,
all-natural mist. It works by stimulating the body’s natural ability to
relieve nasal allergy symptoms which means that I don't have to worry
about any rebound effects or reliance.
The most exciting was that my post nasal drip was no longer
bothering me! I won't go into details, but if you've had a post nasal
drip, you know what I'm talking about here. Hooray!!!I used the mist
twice a day for six days and absolutely felt a huge relief of my allergy
symptoms. I'm going to start using the mist once a day now to see how
that works, and have already checked that my local Walgreens does carry
it (at an affordable price!) so I can get more whenever I need it. Now
I'm starting to love spring!
The nice folks at Similasan sent me some to try out and since the
day I have received it, I have had it at my desk, which I spend my
morning, part afternoon, and little of my evenings at. I figured that
way, I will remember to actually use it. I have faithfully, as recommend
1-3 times daily in each nostril. I have noticed within a week, my
headaches have subsided, not nearly the itchy eyes I had, less
congestion, and breathing through my nose again has been lovely!
I was sent some Similasan Nasal Allergy Relief mist and have been
using now it for a week, and I have seen such an improvement in my
ability to actually breathe out my nose. I haven't had a nosebleed since
I started using the Similasan nasal mist and it is actually draining, I
have regained my sense of smell. I also feel super confident shooting
it up my nose, and there is no funky taste.
The next morning I got proactive and used the Similasan before
leaving the hotel. A good thing about using something that is all
natural (and chemical and preservative free) is I didn't have to worry
about a rebound effect. There isn't a moment where BOOM the stuff wears
off, and I am a disaster.
Because I'm allergic to numerous other things besides pollen, I
first tested a bit of the product out on my face, which is tends to be
really sensitive. It passed that test with flying colors! Similasan's
spray is apparently one of the only medicated, preservative free nasal
decongestants for nasal allergies that you can buy, so I'm sure that
helped.
Fortunately, Similasan has an herbal scent and taste that is not
at all off-putting. It's kind of refreshing, actually. But here's the
beauty of Similasan Nasal Allergy Relief: it makes me stop sneezing so
much that whole nightmarish cycle never even begins. That's a win-win
situation right there! It manages my symptoms so well that I don't need
that other nasal spray.
I'm a big fan of homeopathic remedies. I would much rather deal
with something naturally than with unneeded medication and chemicals, so
when I was asked to try Similasan Nasal Allergy Relief nasal mist I
jumped at the chance! I was sent some to try out and I've really been
pleased with the results of this product. The mist helps alleviate the
symptoms of spring allergies, all while doing so with a natural twist.
This year we are trying a new product, and we are super excited
about it. We are trying Similasan Homeopathic Nasal Allergy Relief. I
love the fact that it's an over-the-counter nasal mist. I have tried
nasal sprays in the past and they have worked, but I have always needed a
prescription from the doctor. I've tried Similasan's nasal mist a few
times now, and I think it's pretty awesome!
I work through all of the fun spring preparation things like
clearing the debris from the garden, moving a few plants, mulching,
edging, pruning, and taking the containers out of the garage. About
halfway through, the misery sets in. I completely block out all
intelligent thought and just keep on suffering. It's not until the
congestion starts to clear on its own that it occurs to me OH, HAI.
SEASONAL ALLERGIES. CAN FIX THAT.
I'm especially careful with what I give the boys, seeing as how
their young bodies are more prone to react adversely to medications.
Poor M2, though, has the worst allergies during pollen season and they
kicked into full force this past weekend. I hate to give him anything
that will make him loopy or drowsy, nor do I want him to be using
something he could become addicted too. I had an aunt one time who
couldn’t go a day without her nasal spray.
I've recently decided to try using natural remedies as much at
possible for myself and my family to keep rebound effects and reliance
to a minimum. I'd rather stimulate my body's natural abilities to
relieve symptoms - especially those associated with my allergies and
chronic rhinitis. So the fact that Similasan's nasal mist is all natural
and chemical and preservative free (in fact it's one of the only
available nasal decongestant sprays that is preservative free) really
appealed to me.
What fun is making all of this cute handmade clothing if I am not
there to see my kids running around in it outside?!! So when the nice
weather hit this past weekend, I was prepared... I was surprised at how
well Similasan Nasal Allergy Relief was able to reduce my allergy
symptoms. Having had sinus pressure for what feels like weeks now, it
was so nice to finally have some relief from that headache. The runny
nose and sneezing practically disappeared!
This past week I had a horrible sinus infection and bronchitis
and Similasan Nasal Allergy Relief was one of the first things I started
on. It makes such a noticeable difference in my sinus drainage! This is
definitely a product that I can rely on throughout the horrible allergy
seasons...which for me means fall, spring and summer, haha!
