Humming for Nasal Health
Research Reveals Humming May Help Relieve Sinus Blockage
•Humming Greatly Increases Nasal Nitric Oxide
If you suffer from sinus problems, there may be something that
you can do to relieve your symptoms and prevent sinusitis absolutely free --
hum.
Scientist in Sweden have discovered that humming -- producing a tune without
opening the lips or forming words -- is an extremely effective way to increase
ventilation in your sinuses. They found that humming increased the nitric oxide
levels by 15-fold compared with quiet exhalation. Nitric oxide concentrations
in healthy sinuses are very high. Jon Lundberg, M.D., Ph.D., of the Department
of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden,
along with an associate, tested 10 healthy males, ages 34 to 48, who had no
history of allergy or airway disease.
"In our study, we hypothesized that the oscillating airflow produced
by humming would speed up the exchange of air between the sinuses and the nasal
cavity and increase nasal nitric oxide output," wrote Dr.Lundberg.
Nitric oxide was measured in the 10 subjects in oral and single breath
exhalations using a tight-fitting mask covering the nose for nasal measurements
and a mouthpiece for exhaling by mouth. The subjects exhaled at a fixed flow
rate for five seconds either quietly or with humming.
Not only did nitric oxide increase 15-fold during humming, the researchers
found that in a mechanical two-compartment model of the nose and sinus,
oscillating airflow caused a dramatic increase in gas exchange between the
cavities. Lundberg said proper ventilation is essential for the maintenance of
sinus integrity, and that blockage of the openings between the two cavities is
a central event in the development of sinusitis.
Lundberg hopes to show with further studies, that the technique
developed in this research can offer an easy, non-invasive way of identifying
persons who are at risk of developing sinusitis. The method might be used to
monitor the effects of surgical or medical interventions aimed at the
prevention of sinusitis. Sinusitis is the inflammation of one of the paranasal
sinuses, usually as a result of upper respiratory infection. About 14 percent
of people in the U.S. suffer from chronic sinusitis.
