I know someone who lost their sense of smell because brain fluid was leaking from their skull. Go to an ENT doctor and have them do some scans... like wtf is some nasal spray going to do? You can't even get the REALLY effective stuff without getting a prescription anyways lol
I couldn't smell for 2 years and doctors kept saying it was just a cold. I eventually had to go to the emergency room due to an extremely painful sinus headache. After a CT scan, I found out I had chronic sinusitis. Using a humidifier, netty pot and nasal spray I can manage it. I cried when I could smell again. It's horrible not being able to smell for so long.
I'm really confused as to why she went to a glorified spa instead of seeing a doctor. Like, I'm glad it seemed to help her, but it didn't seem to actually address what the root cause might have been so there's a chance it might come back.
It appears the root of the problem was taken care of; Drainage of lymphatic blockages. She stated that she's tried everything and every nasal spray. I am fully in support of Western Medicine. It saves lives. However, a prescription drug and nasal spray is what a physician would likely give. Nowadays, more and more people, including Top Scientists and Doctors are in favor of combining both modern medical Western medicine along with a holistic approach.
People keep suggesting she just go to a doctor and to be honest even when I’ve been very congested and I’ve had this recurring cough for months now when I go to my primary clinic they’re just like mucinex and that’s all they have to say and they don’t check for anything. I think modern medicine really needs to take note from alternative medicine this concept of actually listening to patients for more than 2 seconds
Andromeda I 100% agree. I’ve been dealing with SEVERE allergies. Causing bloody snot and bloody mucus draining to the back of my throat. They say nasal spray. I’ve gotten more relief from using steam and salt and warm water. Of course using all of that WITH the nasal spray has helped. But not just spray alone? And she literally was like “I’m not going to prescribe anything for allergies YET” when I’ve been dealing with this for over 6 months. Like wtf? I have swelling and pain in my sinuses. I live in Maine and the air is incredibly dry. They also wanted me to buy a fuckin air purifier. Like people can just go out and buy shit like that. Would have been nice to get something for allergies instead of all this over the counter shit. But I have gone back to natural stuff like the steam and salt water and stuff like that. It works really really well. And that wasn’t suggested to me by my doctor. I read about it online. I’ve already had a CT scan done, a full blood work up. And the whole nine yards. Including being treated with strong antibiotics. That insurance wouldn’t pay for ! Lol. So the doctor isn’t always the best. And for all we know she could have gone and tried many different things. She did mention trying a few other things that didn’t work very well. Sinus shit definitely sucks and for anyone struggling with that I hope you get well soon!!!!

Yes, a friend of mine became anosmic after being sick with a strong cold more than 3 years ago. She has seen many doctors. All of them said: there Is nothing to do about.
@@summerrussell9422 So you go to someone with ZERO proof that it works instead? Well that's smart. Why not go to another specialist? You're making it worst putting oil than better. Worst you could get an infection. If you want to stick something up your nose, why not use a saline solution.
I had this so many many years before doctors could actually diagnosis it. I had a very strong type of sinuous and I presume she had the same thing. Many of the nerves in my nose died which meant I lost a lot of my sense of smell. I ended up having a surgery. It was painful, the recovery was long and it's possible it may have returned. I'd 100% do this instead. And I think I will after watching this 😂👌
@@rumblefish9 She probably went to multiple ENTs. After a while you get to the point that you will try anything. Besides, I didn't see anything dangerous. Oils in the nose won't hurt you, in fact it get used in medical contexts. The body is not that fragile.

Just curious, are you still able to taste things? Whenever I lose my sense of smell (like when I get a really bad cold), I also lose my sense of taste.
You definitely sound less congested. I wish there was somewhere near me that does this. I have been dealing with congestion, ear infections, and blockage for most of my adult life and really sucks. When it get unbearable I have to go to a doctor and they just say here take theses meds. No one actually wants to talk about it or really solve the problem. I am willing to try anything at this point.

@ilargitxo2 I have gone to the doctor in the past for my lymph nodes because you could see them (that's how swollen they were) and they just gave me a numbing mouthwash pretty much. I was told by Martha that this is all tied in with what was going on with my nose and sinus in general. They legit didn't really do anything for me or give me any info.
Chloe Sheler Great idea! I actually bought a ‘shower bomb’ the other week (same as a bath bomb but obviously you put it in the bottom of your shower), it had lavender and other lovely scents. A bottle of eucalyptus oil will definitely last me a lot longer! 🧐
I hope she did this after getting a check up from you know... Doctors that can rule out things like tumors, infections and so on not just Chakra blockage.
You can definitely lose your sense of smell due to stress. I just lost mine about a week ago. It's been the weirdest experience. Stress is a very serious matter and shouldn't be taken lightly. .💯
lol i get most of these treatments from my indian mother whenever i have a cold or something... some of these can be effective, namely inhaling steam, massage the face when you have lots of sinus congestion, ghee drops in the nose are sometimes helpful for me.. also i read about using an electric toothbrush and moving it over your jaw and cheekbone to help mucus in your sinuses loosen up & sometimes that works. of course with someone having such severe and chronic congestion i think this is maybe some nice symptomatic relief but definitely not sufficient. aryuveda is not really proven medical treatment & i get the appeal (especially when doctors can be dismissive about this stuff) but i hope she can see an ENT and maybe identify a cause & treat it
I didn't know this was an option for congestion, it looks so relaxing. Obviously go to the doctor, but if this spa was included I'd probably go more often lol
Thank you for sharing. This looks amazing and effective. My Mom struggles with not being able to smell. She has gone to many doctors, with no relief. I will share this with her. I was relaxed just watching. The massage was everything,

I think the problem is nasal sprays. After 5 days those nasal sprays start drying the mucosa and make artificial clogging in the nose. It would turn okay after two or three weeks after if she doesn't use it. Some doctors do not say that but never use anticongestive nasal sprays more than 5 days.
My grandad has lost his sense of smell he's in his 80s something to do with a neruological problem somewhere in his brain it has fustrated him for so many years but he's accepted if in his old age.
Not me, but I feel sad for the people who followed all precautions but still caught corona for the people who were walking around in the streets for no reason.
@@aflower6955 I caught Covid-19 because I work in retail and we weren't allowed to enforce masks because that "was bad customer service" like wth. Sick of people and their "freedom" infringing on my freedom to breathe. Four months of pneumonia hell.
When my nasal passages get internally dry I get “simply saline” in the gel form and use a filtered syringe and place it in my nostrils...I would put about 3 ml in each nostril separately, then “sniff” it back to my nasal passages...my dr recommended it. And it helps. I don’t have this issue anymore. I feel like this treatment is kinda similar to it
I have that problem too. I can't smell certain strong smells. I've been in places that serve lots of alcohol and was unaffected. It seemed that even my grandmother had a better sense of smell than I did because she noted said smells while I just shrugged it off.
Did you loose your sense of smell in 2020? I haven't seen all the messages so this might have been suggested already. Could this have been Covid? The holistic experience it looks amazing. I love the knowledge the lady has about herbs, oils, sounds... Total treat!
It will, and then it's exciting because everything tastes and smells better than you remember it. I didn't completely lose my smell and taste, so I ate spicy food, and the only thing I could smell was super fishy cat food. It was awesome once I could taste and smell pleasant things again.
Sure, I got acupuncture, $500 a pop, definitely relaxing. A bit hard on the wallet, this seems similar. You can do a lot of these massages yourself, look up lymph massage.
I feel bad for people who work in nail salons and have to breathe those fumes all day. I hate breathing it for 5 minutes while I remove my polish. I have to have windows open and exhaust fans on.
My sense of smell is pretty bad compared to my family’s and friends so when I was really into nail polish, my room smelled strongly of nail polish and acetone. I never noticed. Everyone else did..
I have a terrible sense of smell and can still smell mint, spices, whatever food my mum is cooking at 3 AM...I wonder why she can’t? Why did she loose her sense of smell so suddenly? For me, it’s always been this way.
Many of these places she massages were the same points that my acupuncturist used. It definitely helped me relax. You definitely don't want to inhale oil into your sinuses and lungs though. It will mess up the cilia which cleans the air you breathe and removes mucus. Just swab a small amount on the sides of your nostrils.
@@kenteciastevenson7929 Kinda. I did not completely lose my taste, just partially. Even the partial loss of taste didn't last long, just a day or two. But I had totally lost the sense of smell. Did you test positive for Covid?
Very good mam ... U took very good step for Ayurveda and day by day everyone is educating themselves although u have put only single dot of Ayurveda... It very big written by god according to the Indian philosophy..... Thumbs up....
Some people who have been exposed to covid-19 have lost their sense of smell. That, for many was their only symptom. You might want to get a test to be safe, and research what I am telling you on your own. Be safe and great video!
There is an area of the brain that is responsible for you sense of smell. If you cannot smell (not related to respiratory infection), it’s usually a sign that there is damage to that part of the brain.
Feel like even though this helps, you should only get a treatment like this after you've consulted a doctor, losing one of your senses like that could be a big sign of something worse, so unless you know it's nothing bigger then this might be a good option
I lost my sense of smell a few years ago and have gone to a doctor for a medical procedure but unfortunately it hasn’t helped. Mine happened a few days after a concussion, had anyone experienced this? Any advice is welcome. I have an 18 month old baby that I would love to smell. And also, it can be dangerous.
Nasya is an age old Indian Ayurvedic technique which has help innumerable people all round the globe suffering from various ENT or otolaryngetic problems
This might sound crazy but i also lost my sense if smell. It was gone for years until i decided to stop my birth control and it came back. I did the math in my head and i lost it around the same time i started bc. While my smell was gone i could sniff crazy strong shit no issues but every once un a while it would come back and it was a sensory overload in those few fleeting moments and the smells that always broke through were bad. Regaining you sense of smell really sucks it is like that soongebob episode. Although i got used to it again and now i still have a sense of smell
As someone who lost a little sense of smell by my bad sinusitis(and already went to a doctor) this comment section is making my hypochondriac ass PANICKED!!
If this is a sudden thing you only had for a few weeks or months instead of something you were born with, please go see a doctor because it is usually a very serious symptom of bad issues.
The massage looks amazing but this is pseudoscience and practitioners like this take advantage of vulnerable people. Especially women. Please go to a doctor.
It is not pseudoscience, its Ayurveda(Indian Medicine) which has been proven far better than Western medicine for curing chronic or lasting problems naturally in a holistic manner

My grandad has lost his sense of smell he's in his 80s something to do with a neruological problem somewhere in his brain it has fustrated him for so many years but he's accepted if in his old age.
Girl you need to go to an ent it could be chronic sinusitis. I lost most of my sense of smell from that. Got it treated and it’s back
My sinusitis is cured, it wasn't chronic, but I lost sense of smell partially.
Hey I was cured by Dr Ehisz on TH-cam after 6 months I lost my taste and smell, search for him on TH-cam he will cure you too!
I am happy that she can smell again!
Okay but that steam thing with the sweating sounds real nice for congestion. Especially with the eucalyptus leaves.
I totally wish I could try this type of treatment!
And I'm over here scared of putting on Vaseline
why are you scared of vaseline?
“For the steam I use water”
Lol… for real though this looks awesome.
who's here because they lost their sense of taste/smell due to covid 😔
Ugh me
Me😭😭😭
Me....so want to smell normal again! She mentioned that she’s glad not to smell garbage but I really want to smell garbage again....is that bad??!!
Not me, but I feel sad for the people who followed all precautions but still caught corona for the people who were walking around in the streets for no reason.
@@aflower6955 I caught Covid-19 because I work in retail and we weren't allowed to enforce masks because that "was bad customer service" like wth. Sick of people and their "freedom" infringing on my freedom to breathe. Four months of pneumonia hell.
Your so freaking pretty and your teeth are just gorgeous
This looks super relaxing and pampering, plus she did sound alot clearer after the treatment
When my nasal passages get internally dry I get “simply saline” in the gel form and use a filtered syringe and place it in my nostrils...I would put about 3 ml in each nostril separately, then “sniff” it back to my nasal passages...my dr recommended it. And it helps. I don’t have this issue anymore. I feel like this treatment is kinda similar to it
At least the saline you're using is sterile. You can't really be guaranteed if that oil was sterile.
I have that problem too. I can't smell certain strong smells. I've been in places that serve lots of alcohol and was unaffected. It seemed that even my grandmother had a better sense of smell than I did because she noted said smells while I just shrugged it off.
Did you loose your sense of smell in 2020? I haven't seen all the messages so this might have been suggested already. Could this have been Covid? The holistic experience it looks amazing. I love the knowledge the lady has about herbs, oils, sounds... Total treat!
Her face is wonderful with and most especially without makeup ❤️
honestly, i wouldn’t even care if it worked for my sinuses or not. it just looked so damn relaxing. 😌😌
i dont even lose my sense of smell but god i want this massage it looks so relaxing dlsjdkfjdkslldjd
Ol but like it looks so relaxing
+georgias. Right?!
I need more relaxing natural videos like this :(
Dat unintentional asmr though 😩
I have Covid right now and I’m terrified my smell and taste won’t come back
same
It will, and then it's exciting because everything tastes and smells better than you remember it. I didn't completely lose my smell and taste, so I ate spicy food, and the only thing I could smell was super fishy cat food. It was awesome once I could taste and smell pleasant things again.
@@jessicah3450 hey, how long did it take for iy to come back? It's been 2 months for me.
How did she live for two years without the smell of Cinnabon
Looks like a nice massage! I have my sense of smell but I’ll never say no to a massage
I’ve never heard of such a procedure. Sounds interesting 😍
can I do this just for fun? looks so relaxing
Sure, I got acupuncture, $500 a pop, definitely relaxing. A bit hard on the wallet, this seems similar. You can do a lot of these massages yourself, look up lymph massage.
when she smelt the nail polish remover like that i FELT the braincells popping
I feel bad for people who work in nail salons and have to breathe those fumes all day. I hate breathing it for 5 minutes while I remove my polish. I have to have windows open and exhaust fans on.
My sense of smell is pretty bad compared to my family’s and friends so when I was really into nail polish, my room smelled strongly of nail polish and acetone.
I never noticed. Everyone else did..
Me too.
I have a terrible sense of smell and can still smell mint, spices, whatever food my mum is cooking at 3 AM...I wonder why she can’t? Why did she loose her sense of smell so suddenly? For me, it’s always been this way.
What a thorough impressive protocol! That practitioner is amazing!
I like how one of my recommendations is another video abt loss of smell but w a real doctor instead
Many of these places she massages were the same points that my acupuncturist used. It definitely helped me relax. You definitely don't want to inhale oil into your sinuses and lungs though. It will mess up the cilia which cleans the air you breathe and removes mucus. Just swab a small amount on the sides of your nostrils.
Hey I was cured by Dr Ehisz on TH-cam after 6 months I lost my taste and smell, search for him on TH-cam he will cure you too!
Can we have a comparison of her going to the spa and the doctor? I think that would be interesting.
Okay but she sounds SO MUCH BETTER AFTERWARDS.

Lost my smell due to nasal polyps. I had to have surgery. I’d suggest seeing an ENT...
Loved the close up of her spit water nice touch 👌
Watching this while on the bed due to covid-19 because now I've lost my smell as well.
How are you now ?
@@kenteciastevenson7929 Hi! I got my smell back after almost 2 weeks and now I've tested negative for Covid.
@@tanujarai4361 did your taste come in before your smell did ?
@@kenteciastevenson7929 Kinda. I did not completely lose my taste, just partially. Even the partial loss of taste didn't last long, just a day or two. But I had totally lost the sense of smell.
Did you test positive for Covid?
@@tanujarai4361 thank you . Were you taking any vitamins or anything to assist?
Very good mam ... U took very good step for Ayurveda and day by day everyone is educating themselves although u have put only single dot of Ayurveda... It very big written by god according to the Indian philosophy.....
Thumbs up....
Some people who have been exposed to covid-19 have lost their sense of smell. That, for many was their only symptom. You might want to get a test to be safe, and research what I am telling you on your own. Be safe and great video!
There is an area of the brain that is responsible for you sense of smell. If you cannot smell (not related to respiratory infection), it’s usually a sign that there is damage to that part of the brain.
She is such a beautiful person. Inside and out.
my aunt lost her smell and taste after a severe head injury.. hope she has done a brain scan recently
I’ve done the Chinese version lol. Uncle made me do it when I was cold/flu-ish. I definitely felt better and wanted to just sleep afterwards
Feel like even though this helps, you should only get a treatment like this after you've consulted a doctor, losing one of your senses like that could be a big sign of something worse, so unless you know it's nothing bigger then this might be a good option
I lost my sense of smell a few years ago and have gone to a doctor for a medical procedure but unfortunately it hasn’t helped. Mine happened a few days after a concussion, had anyone experienced this? Any advice is welcome. I have an 18 month old baby that I would love to smell. And also, it can be dangerous.
The placebo effect us really amazes me.
Am I the only one who thinks these videos are relaxing?
I definitely want to try this
woah- 2-3 years i could never😭
Nasya is an age old Indian Ayurvedic technique which has help innumerable people all round the globe suffering from various ENT or otolaryngetic problems
I watched this video 3 times. So relaxing. I would love to have this treatment. Nothing wrong with my sniffers
though😀
This might sound crazy but i also lost my sense if smell. It was gone for years until i decided to stop my birth control and it came back. I did the math in my head and i lost it around the same time i started bc. While my smell was gone i could sniff crazy strong shit no issues but every once un a while it would come back and it was a sensory overload in those few fleeting moments and the smells that always broke through were bad. Regaining you sense of smell really sucks it is like that soongebob episode. Although i got used to it again and now i still have a sense of smell
Hey I was cured by Dr Ehisz on TH-cam after 6 months I lost my taste and smell, search for him on TH-cam he will cure you too!
idc if this doesnt work all of the massage looks amazing
this must be sooo relaxing
As someone who lost a little sense of smell by my bad sinusitis(and already went to a doctor) this comment section is making my hypochondriac ass PANICKED!!
This is a legit treatment in Ayurveda except for the gua sha . It's really effective for sinus problems.
Wow I need this amazing lady with magical hands In my life 😱❤️
Who else here has no sense of smell? 🙋♀️
If this is a sudden thing you only had for a few weeks or months instead of something you were born with, please go see a doctor because it is usually a very serious symptom of bad issues.
I have a deviated septum 😕
The massage looks amazing but this is pseudoscience and practitioners like this take advantage of vulnerable people. Especially women.
Please go to a doctor.
peachila and doctors don't? Lol
Yea, doctors aren’t the best either when they prescribe you tons of expensive meds or just say that it’s allergies.
let's not forget about medical racism.
It is not pseudoscience, its Ayurveda(Indian Medicine) which has been proven far better than Western medicine for curing chronic or lasting problems naturally in a holistic manner
My last GP was also holistic and actually almost poisoned me. Natural doesn't mean safe, but for many it's a current selling point.
Her face and throat even looks slimmer
