I've heard such techniques are supposed to be beneficial if you have allergic rhinitis (like me), but I wouldn't have thought that they would be able to do much against physical obstructions in the nose (again, like me) - can you clarify this at all?
Yes, Buteyko is potentially excellent for asthma, allergies and rhinitis, as well as for other health-related problems, so it may be worth your while investigating it. I doubt it would help with physical obstructions though - I guess you'd need an operation for that?
(I'm a friend of Simon's, Claire(withani), and I don't have an LJ account). I have allergic asthma, and allergic rhinitis. I recently went to the asthma nurse, who prescribed some tablets called "montelukast sodium" (Singluair is the brand name). Since taking these I have pretty much stopped sniffling and sneezing, which is a bit surprising since I've had the allergic asthma/rhinitis since I was 16 and I'm now 33. It might be worth mentioning it to someone. :)
Very long time no thingumibob. I think I might have left it under the bed and forgotten to take it with me when we (husband Simon H and I) moved house two years ago. Oops. Anyway, I hope all's well. :)
