Yoga relief for sinusitis

Yoga relief for sinusitis

Suffering from throbbing sinus headaches, runny nose and nasal congestion? Well, you are not alone,  The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases survey indicates around 134 million people in India (one in eight Indian) suffer from chronic sinusitis.

The sinuses are small hollow cavities located behind the forehead, cheekbones, nose and eyes. The sinuses are covered in mucus, a clear jelly-like fluid that protects the body against bacteria, viruses and germs. Sometimes bacteria or allergens trapped in the nasal cavity can cause mucus accumulation which will block the sinus openings. The excess mucus build-up will encourage bacteria or germs to multiple in the sinus cavity causing inflammation and pain. Majority of sinus infections are caused by a virus and tend to go away within two weeks.

Yoga offers simple kriyas, pranayamas and asa nas to prevent sinusitis. If suffering from the chronic illness it helps to provide respite and builds immunity against repeated viral infections.
