The Ayurvedic Approach to Nasal Care

In Ayurveda, the nose is considered the gateway to the head and to our vital life force. The practice of applying herbal oil to the nasal passages, known as Nasya, is a cornerstone of daily self-care. This practice is believed to help clear and lubricate the delicate tissues, promoting the healthy flow of energy and supporting the balance of the body's structural (earthy/watery) and movement (airy) energies. By soothing dryness and helping to clear accumulated mucus, Ayurvedic nasal oils support healthy upper respiratory function and enhance mental clarity, allowing you to breathe easy and feel your best.

FAQs

1) Which nasal oil is best for sinus relief?
When shoppers search for the “best” nasal oils for sinus relief, they’re usually looking for a gentle formula that supports nasal moisture and a sense of clear breathing without harsh ingredients. Kerala Ayurveda’s Nasya Oil is crafted as a daily nasal care oil to help keep the passages comfortable especially in dry climates, air-conditioned interiors, or during seasonal shifts. What matters most is ingredient transparency, a light, non-irritating texture, and clear usage directions. If you’re new to nasal care oils, start with a few drops as directed, see how you feel over several days, and consult your clinician if you have questions about fit or frequency.

2) How often can I use nasal oil (nasya) and when should I apply it?
For daily maintenance, many users apply 1–2 drops per nostril in the morning to support moisture and comfort throughout the day. During periods of seasonal discomfort (travel, dry air, changing weather), some people use it as needed, following the label to avoid overuse. You can pair application with a warm shower or a few minutes of steam beforehand, which many find helps the oil spread comfortably. Always follow the product label and speak with your healthcare professional if you’re unsure about frequency, especially if you’re using other nasal products.

3) How do I apply nasya oil correctly for comfort and cleanliness?
Wash your hands, tilt your head slightly back, and place 1–2 drops in each nostril. Sniff gently so the oil coats the nasal lining, then keep your head tilted for a few seconds. If any excess drips, dab with a clean tissue—no forceful inhaling or deep sniffing needed. Use only as directed on the label; more is not necessarily better. If you’re sensitive, begin with 1 drop to assess comfort.

4) Is nasal oil safe for sensitive noses or first-time users?
Kerala Ayurveda’s Nasya Oil is designed to be gentle and soothing, but sensitivity varies. If you’re new, start with a skin patch test (e.g., inside the forearm) and a lower amount in the nose to gauge comfort. Many users find the lightweight texture easy to tolerate, especially when applied after a shower or mild steam. If you notice irritation, stinging, or nosebleeds, stop use and consult your clinician.

5) Can I use nasal oil with medicated sprays, decongestants, or saline rinses?
Always ask your healthcare professional first. Nasal oils are non-medicated and intended to support moisture and comfort; they are not a replacement for prescribed or OTC medications. If your clinician approves using multiple products, they can advise on spacing (e.g., when to use an oil vs. a spray or saline) so they don’t interfere with each other. When in doubt, keep things simple and follow professional guidance.

6) Should I use nasal oil if I have a cold, fever, or an active infection?
Avoid nasya oil during acute illness—including colds, fever, or active infections. Once you’re feeling better, you can discuss with your clinician when to resume. Nasal oils are meant for daily comfort and moisture support when you are otherwise well; they are not designed to treat acute symptoms.

7) Is nasya oil suitable during pregnancy, nursing, or for children?
Consult a qualified healthcare professional before use during pregnancy or nursing, since needs vary and your clinician can offer tailored guidance. For children, use only with pediatric advice—their nasal passages can be delicate, and a professional can advise if a nasal care oil is appropriate and how to apply it safely.

8) How should I store nasya oil for freshness and potency?
Keep the bottle tightly capped and store in a cool, dark place, away from sunlight, heat, and humidity (avoid bathrooms if they get steamy). Proper storage helps maintain texture and aroma. Use by the expiration date and avoid touching the dropper tip to reduce contamination risk.

9) How can I naturally support clearer breathing day to day?
Stay hydrated, maintain comfortable indoor humidity, and consider a consistent nasal care routine with a gentle oil to help support moisture and a sense of clear breathing. Warm showers or brief steam before application can enhance comfort. Quality sleep, balanced nutrition, and regular movement support overall wellness, which often shows up in easier day-to-day breathing.
