Navage

Better than Not

I never used the neti pot it scared me but I knew I needed something. I use Navage maybe twice a month. It's quick and easy. Never before bed. I am afraid of the water coming out of my nose while I sleep. Before Navage. I couldn't breathe, see, think or smell. Food tastes so much better now. I use hot water which is not that hot in my nose. ***You Have to Make Sure you have a Good Seal/Suction. Don't press hard. Keep Your Mouth Open! I carry tissue afterward to catch water coming from my nose (mostly when bending over) for a couple of hours. Sometimes I still feel a little stuffy. I take Aleve-D and I'm Good. I give Navage a thumb up. For Me, it's better than not.

Navage User

I like the Navage system and have used it for two years. However, during that time I always suffered from a chronic sinus infection. I just couldn't get rid of the infections. So, out of desperation, I stopped using Flonase, Nasacort, Claritin, and Navage. Since Navage was all natural, I gave it up last. After I completely stopped using Navage, my chronic sinus infection disappeared, vanished, and hasn't returned. I had read articles written by Eye, Nose, and Throat doctors that warned about sinus infections being caused by nasal drainage systems. Well, I'm living proof. I will never use any nasal drainage system again. Nasal drainage systems we're obviously the cause of my sinus infections.

Useless and No Guarantee

My wife purchased this at CVS for my birthday at the end of March, based upon the company's guarantee of 30 days. It is totally useless and CVS currently refuses to take it back, due to COVID 19, and Navage won't take it back since it wasn't purchased from them. The guarantee was advertised the same day she purchased it. Don't take a chance!

Don't Waste Your Money

I have used one of the squirt bottles to clear my sinuses seasonally for years and thought that this would be a far superior product (maybe just because it was so much more expensive) I found this not to be true. In fact, this morning, after I used the Navage, I had to use my nasal squirter to finish the job. It is quick and gentle, but not worth the extra cost.

Great Gimmick

Works better than the bottle flush,however it's not worth the price.
It won't work without their pods at. 50 cents a pop. A couple times a day.$365 a year. Motor went out at 13 months. I would NOT recommend.

Suddenly Affordable

Great product, but didn't like the idea of being locked into salt pod purchases. So look for a method to use CVS salt packets that I used for my Sinugator for years without any damage to what is a very standard salt-water impeller. Found one.
The salt pod lock is a two-button interlocking system. Simply use a salt pod and then save the container. That one pod is likely all you'll need for a long time.
On careful examination of the pod, one sees a tough plastic rim (e bott) and a weak plastic depression ( the t) When the lid is closed, both buttons are pressed activating the switch in the lid and the button on the bottom. This is why you can't peek, btw, since once the lid has closed there is insufficient pressure to push the switch again.
HOWEVER: With the used pod pushing down on the bottom, all you have to do is push the switch on the lid manually as you close it. This must be done as the lid is about halfway closed; open it and the switch resets. Then whatever solution you have put in the reservoir will work with the machine none the wiser.
A word of caution though: If one uses premixed packets from a drugstore (e CVS stuff is amazingly cheap compared to PO) one is probably good to go with no damage to the impeller or seals. Keep in mind that the higher concentration of salt in the mix the shorter the service life, so mixes of greater than three parts salt to one part baking soda should probably be avoided. In my case, I'd probably use the CVS stuff in the Navage with this little trick and once I've opened the old honker up, use the saltier homemade solution in my neti pot to kill whatever else may be in there.

Water comes into mouth even when you open it and breath through your nose why?

Way Over Priced Long Term Cost

Seems to work fairly well. What I found offensive was they don’t tell you that it will cost at least $30 monthly to use it. Just in salt Pods and will not work without one. What if I don’t want a salt wash? What if my doctor has something else he wants me to use that doesn’t have salt in it. If you look at the engineering they went to a lot of trouble to try and make sure that it had to have salt pads in it in order for it to work. 50 cents each is a rip In itself for a ounce of salt water. While it seems better than a Neti pot, the cost of the unit plus the monthly fee for salt far outweighs its value.

You Need to Know!

I bought mine from Amazon and was surprised when I found that the machine would NOT function without the Proprietary Salt Packs. If you use as directed it will cost you over $600 annually for Salt Pods! Thankfully Amazon took the unused package back without question!

Works Great

Bought it while having trouble shaking a sinus infection. Was doing neti pods to fight the infection. To compare I did a neti pod first than the Navage. I was completely blown away by what came out of my nose after the neti pod use. Granted it is a little tricky to use but the results are pretty impressive.

Navage Removes Your Body’s 1st Line of Defense Against Airborne Bacteria & Viruses

Washing out the mucus in your nasal passages is a bad idea. When your sinuses are in balance you have the right amount of mucous lining your nasal passages which trap and kills bacteria & viruses before they can get into your body before they can replicate to the point your white blood cells can no longer stop them. When you get stuffed up this may be uncomfortable but it is better to be stuffed up & block bacteria & viruses from getting into your body than to wash away all the mucous and your white blood cell fortified mucous in your sinuses so there is nothing left to kill airborne bacteria & viruses which enter the body through your nose primarily and your mouth if you are a mouth breather. Mouth breathing also is not healthy since it bypasses the bodies first line of defense for airborne bacteria & viruses as the air enters the nose & eventually exits the nose & mouth. The nose was not invented to hold up glasses. It’s the body’s air cleaner like on an engine. If you get rid of the air cleaner on your motor you eventually destroy the engine. Navage is like removing your car's filter, clean out the filter housing but don’t put a new filter in so airborne contaminants have unobstructed access to your engine to destroy it. Navage is only safe in an environment where there are no bacteria or viruses in the air which is virtually nowhere but if you live by yourself and don’t go anywhere until the mucous has relined your nasal cavity in a few hours to potentially a day or more then you could reduce the possibility of “catching” something in your nose and killing it before it replicates & can’t be stopped without medication.

Love it

If you have not actually tried it than you are missing out. If you have not even tried the Neti-pot than I would suggest starting with a simple, cheap solution first and than go to the Navage. I have used both the Neti-pot and the Navage. I love my Navage. The secret to using either one is to become a mouth breather while you use it. If you do not than you will taste it in the back of your throat. Remember to breathe out of your mouth while using it. Do not hold your breath.

Navage

Wanted to let you know It is the best thing I have ever bought. I have COPD and it helps me breathe.

Overated don't Believe Fake Amazon Reviews

Purchase this product based on Amazon reviews only to learn that close to 25% of them are fake reviews including a medical director that works for the company. It's because of companies like this that you can't believe what you read half the time Amazon should be ashamed of themselves.

Works for Me

I use a topical steroid in a sinus rinse to help control my sneezing and irritation

I was using a squeeze bottle but this is easier and less messy.

Takes some getting used to and experimenting with the nasal pillows but when it works it's great. Sometimes my congestion is too bad to use it then it's back to the bottle

Give it a try.

Check YouTube videos on alternative ways to use this.

It Actually Works

I recently got the unit and I was shocked that it worked the first time trying and I barely felt it as well. It's a good idea to follow the instructions with the warm water and saying Aaaaaah! Certainly no mess around the sink. Can't comment on longevity, but the feeling was far less obtrusive than I thought it would be.

Just Marketing

Company incentivizes reviews from consumers and discourages bad ones. Its everything that is wrong with the review process and I wanted no part of it. No free trial offer you have to pay to return unless you threaten a bad review than they buy your silence.

Best I Ever Used!

I love this machine! I have cystic fibrosis and always with sinus infections and this machine has helped me big time.

Bought this for my husband. He didn't like it. Cost too much money. Now I can't get a hold of anybody at Navage to return it. Extremely frustrated - I will continue with my quest to return and will not give any kind of positive review.

Pissing and Moaning

Bunch of winning cry babies. Get a job.

Rubbish

This is just late night Marketing and fake reviews product is a way overpriced bulb syringe that only works for about two months and when you call the company they offer to send you a replacement but ask that you don't say anything negative than when you get it they ask you to post a 5 star review such BS.

Great Product!

I've been using this for about 2 months now. My wife hates it, I love it. What does that tell you about the technology? Some people have touchy gag reflexes or can't control the back of their throats. No problem. Don't use it. But if you can adapt to what this machine is doing it is totally awesome. I've had NO problems using it. I get the best allergy relief I've ever had, including medications and surgery. This device will flush away those irritating particles that blowing your nose just can't remove. Pump AND suction. Genius. I'm a fan.

BEST VALUE

No more antibiotics! This is the best of the best. I haven't had a single sinus infection since I started using naväge - and I usually get three or four a year. Plus, I've stopped snoring. So much cheaper than prescriptions and otc meds.

By the way, there's a small learning curve - but it's really pretty easy to master the device. ( it helps to read the directions. )

It's really well made - solid, ergonomic, obviously a lot of money in the design. Nice product, but for me, a real life-changer. Thank you!

Way over Priced and Cheaply Made

Terrible contraption that is too hard to use too messy and not very effective just one giant not very slick marketing campaign. Forget it you will be disappointed. But if you write a bad review company will send you a free unit fakers.

More Hype and pr than Substance

Overpriced neti pot that breaks easily. Sent back.
