The ideal stones to decongest the sinuses

The nose is the organ of smell and the main passage point for air entering and leaving the lungs . The nose warms, humidifies and filters the air before it enters the lungs. The facial bones, located around the nose, contain cavities called paranasal sinuses.

The paranasal sinuses perform several functions:

• Relative reduction in the weight of the anterior part of the skull , particularly the facial bones; their shape is important from the point of view of the attachment of the facial muscles
• Improved warming and humidification of inhaled air before it reaches the lungs
• Increased voice resonance _ _
• Cushioning of possible blows received to the face
• Participation in the “ nasal cycle ”: the mucous membranes of the sinuses (as well as those of the nasal turbinates) swell alternately on one side then the other of the cranium every 1 to 5 hours on average. This cycle, observed in 80% of the adult population, explains that one nasal cavity is blocked while the other is clear, which would promote the perception of a wider range of odors. When you are lying down, this cycle would also partly explain the change of side during sleep.

In order to relieve pain linked to the respiratory system and in particular to the sinuses , we invite you to discover the best lithotherapy stones to relieve you of these effects.
