The neti pot is a holistic approach to preventing sinus problems, relieving sinus pressure, and for keeping the sinuses clean and clear. Using the neti pot is an ancient therapy that has come of age with modern technology.
It's basically nasal irrigation and the neti pot makes it easy, cheap and convenient.
Dr. Oz, who highly recommends the neti pot, gave a demonstration on his new t.v show today demonstrating the simple approach to using it. It's easy to use and a whole lot cheaper than buying drugs or visiting the doctor for sinus problems.
This is a non-drug approach to sinus infection and the best part is that you don't have to worry about "over-dosing" per se, but you have to be careful not to overuse it because it could irritate your nasal passages if you over use it. Use a little salt water.
Based on my research into these, your best bet is up to twice a day if your infection is really a problem. See how you feel after using the neti pot, and see how your body reacts to using it morning, or mid-day and before bed.
This approach should give you the best results, and also keep your nasal passages from getting irritated.
