It is  washing out your nose once or twice daily with lukewarm isotonic solution. Most medical studies on nasal irrigation for allergies are rather positive, and there's little risk and little expense in trying.Nasal irrigation simply washes away the irritants causing the allergy symptoms..

 The nose is like a car filter or a/c air filter that traps debris

The Nose is the only filter to approximately 14,000 liters of air that we breathe every day. In order to keep this air-filter clean, it is necessary to have a routine of daily nasal hygiene .

The nose is a vital but often neglected organ. Not only does it play a role in our sense of smell, taste, and the sound of our voice, the nose is the first line of defence against airborne contaminants

'If the nasal lining is dry or the tiny hairs, called cila, are blocked and cannot move, the nose does not function..

'Washing your nose daily can clean, clear and moisturise the nose to ensure it is in top working condition.' 

'ensure your first line of defence is in top working condition to filter and filter and remove particles and allergens effectively'.

                  The solution  is isotonic- containing the same salt balance as the cells in the human body, making it gentle and effective at washing away contaminants and debris trapped in the inner nose .

'When used regularly, this can help to delay the onset of allergic reaction when the levels of allergens rise by reducing exposure.

For centuries, The practice of nasal irrigation likely originated in the Ayurvedic medical tradition in which it is known as "jala neti". The  neti pot  orginates from the yoga traditation  of India and its millenia old health and awareness traditions.  (Jal in Hindi means water, Jala neti literally means ‘water cleansing’). The neti pot has long been used as an aid to facilite deep breathing.

These devices are generally safe and useful products, says Steven Osborne, M.D., a medical officer in FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH).

Medical research confirmed that, premitive neti pot, or saline nasal rinse,could do more harm than good if not done properly.

 A 2008 study found that people with severe allergies did n’t need to rely on harsher steroid nasal sprays as much after using regular nasal irrigation.  

Nasal sinus irrigation  is prescribes  by ENT and Allergy specialists in the Europian countries , USA and Canada.

In 2007, a University of Michigan study published in the Archives of Otolaryngology head and neck Surgery found that within two months ,adults with chronic sinus problems inclding mucous problems like post nasal drip,dry nose, and congestion ,felt more improvements after using nasal irrigation. Melissa Pynnonen ,MD,professor of otolaryngology at University of Michigan medical School, prescribes nasal irrigation for  her patients who have frequent or chronic nasal  sinus problems with much success. She usually recommends her patients starts twice a day, in morning and night, and then experiment with the frequency until they find symptom relief.”For some people ,that’s  twice a week,”she says. “For others ,its every day.

"I find it to be the first line of defense in dealing with complicated sinus problems and allergy problems," says Evangeline Lausier, MD, assistant clinical professor of medicine and director of clinical services at Duke University's department of integrative medicine. "Particularly if you are developing congestion or have a sinus infection, it's very helpful."
