Various sources have different opinions about regular use of the Neti pot, anywhere from three times a week up to once a day. When you are experiencing severe sinus pain usage can be once or more a day for the duration of your symptoms. I have had times when I used the Neti pot four or five times a day when symptoms were at their worse and found it to be very effective. Regarding overuse, only one source I found suggested you could increase sinus infections by too frequent use. So, just to be safe, I would always err on the side of moderation for maintenance and adjust as works best for your own particular body. Great question!

I was wondering about frequency? How many times should you do it in a day/week? Can you do it too much? I have been using the neti pot for the first time and it seems to be helping.

But care must be taken to hang onto the pot, and not let it fall to the hard tile floor wherein it would be destroyed and one might have a dangerous mess to then address in bare feet. Be careful.

I love the neti pot procedure and use it often. It even helps me sing better when I'm well...but it is a great way to stop and incoming illness! Thank you Jessica for bringing it to our attention.

I used the neti pot 3 days in a row 2x per day and it cleared the drainage from my nose that was going to the back of my throat. Not only that, I felt like I could breath more clearly. It is a worth wild infestment. Last month I purchased a Neti pot, for the first time I was able to fend off an on-coming cold.
