Meditation can stimulate your sinuses to release gases that will help your body to relax. That’s why a very effective treatment for sinusitis is humming. It will dilate your blood vessels effectively and as good as antibiotics. The gas that is produced is called nitric oxide. Inflammation causes an increase of nitric oxide as well and is your natural answer to sinusitis.
