Abstract
A system and method for delivering a bathing liquid via a nostril of a face-down user maintains the liquid in prolonged and predictable contact with the nasal and sinus mucosa. A head orientation unit attaches to the head and includes an angle monitoring unit to provide an indication of the angular orientation of the head as it turns to optimize delivery of the liquid to target head structures. A liquid supply delivers the liquid through the user's nostrils to the selected head structures as a function of the angular orientation indication and at a pressure and flow rate that maintains a constant volume of liquid in the nasal and sinus cavities. Indicia on the angle monitoring unit permit the user to orient his/her head to predetermined angular positions.
