When you complete cleaning up one nostril, take out the thread from the mouth. Wash the thread effectively and place it in the other nostril.
You can likewise carry out a milder variation of Neti by putting lukewarm water with a dash of salt through a cup with a spout into your nostril. You stoop somewhat forward and tilt your head to a side to put water. Do not allow the water to decrease the throat however it ought to come out through the other nostril.
Take this water in a bowl, dip your nostrils somewhat into the bowl and then tilt it. Draw the water carefully and let it go down the nostrils. Routine practice will teach you to pass the water through the lower nostril, so there is no inflammation.
