HOW STEAM VAPORIZER HELPS US IN OUR DAILY LIFE?

Steam vaporizers or warm mist vaporizers contain a heating element that boils the water and releases steam. Dry air can cause skin dryness, congested sinuses, and the possibility of issues like nosebleeds, bronchitis, and sinus infections. While steam inhalation will not cure these infections, it helps the patient feel a lot better while their body fights it off. Steam vaporizers are often mistaken for humidifiers. Both steam vaporizers and humidifiers convert water into gas to deliver moisture to the atmosphere. The difference lies in the principle used to produce moisture. Unlike steam vaporizers, humidifiers disperse cool mist into the air. A vaporizer is a better option for people who have indoor allergens because the device heats water to release mist; hence, it usually has fewer contaminants than a humidifier.

BENEFITS OF STEAM VAPORIZERS:

• Steam inhalation may provide temporary relief from the symptoms of the common cold, flu, sinus infections, bronchitis, and nasal allergies.

• It moisturizes dry, irritated nasal and throat passages making patients feel more comfortable.

• Alleviates soreness and inflammation of the throat.

• Liquefies mucous secretions, resulting in clearer secretions that are easier to expel by coughing or blowing the nose.

• Relaxes throat muscles, reducing the cough reflex.

• Dilates blood vessels, encouraging better blood flow and overall circulation.

• A vaporizer can work as a diffuser to deliver essential oils into the air. As the water heats up, the molecules from the essential oil bind to the gas. The vapor then carries the essential oils into the air. This is a good way to improve the aroma at home in a very subtle way. Also, research suggests that essential oils can work as a natural healing agent and relieves stress.

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN WHILE USING A STEAM VAPORIZER:

• Make sure the vaporizer is on a leveled, sturdy surface.

• Do not shake or lean on the bowl.

• Avoid allowing the steam to make direct contact with the eyes. Eyes should be closed and directed away from the steam.

• Keep the vaporizer out of reach of children or pets.

• Do not steam longer than 10 to 15 minutes for each session. However, steam inhalation can be repeated twice or thrice a day if symptoms persist.

• Steam vaporizers can get dirty with germs quickly, so wash it often to prevent bacterial and fungal growth.
