DeterminingtheBestPlacementStrategy
BNSMethod(TLTRMLMRBLBR)
Thereareafewdifferentoptionsfordeterminingballoonplacement.BilateralNasalSpecific(BNS)involvesinflatingthe
ballooninthetopleft,topright,middleleft,middleright,thenbottomleftandbottomrightpassagesallinoneday.Itried
thisforafewweeksbutdidn'tgetsuchgreatresultsfromit.Dr.Howellbelievesasymmetricaltreatmentsaremoreeffective
thanBNSandIagree.

AsymmetricalMethod(TLMLBLorTRMRBR)
Asymmetrical=topleft,middleleft,bottomleftthefirstday...topright,middleright,bottomrightthesecondday,etc.
Somepeoplealsostudytheirfaceclosely,andtreatasymmetricallyontheweakestside.Soforexampleiftheleftsideis
morenarrowthantherightside,theywouldtreattheleftsideuntilit'sevenwiththeright.Thisactuallydoesworkalthough

IntuitivePlacementMethod
Themethodthatworksthebestforthemostpeopleisintuitiveplacement.Ifonesideofthefaceisparticularlyasymmetrical

MuscleTestingMethod
