Jala neti

Jala neti consists of pouring a solution of water and sea salt into one nostril, making it come out from the opposite one, obviously repeating the process on both sides. 

Water must be lukewarm and mixed with a small amount of salt to be compatible with our body; in fact, body fluids have a salt concentration of 0.9% Alternatively, you can use a ready-made physiological solution available in specialized shops or pharmacies. 

The special tool used for this practice is known as Lota, a sort of small watering can, usually made of copper or ceramic.
