Ear-Popping Devices

The EarPopper Clears Plugged Ears Using a Nasal Pressure

— May 7, 2016 — Lifestyle
Having clogged or plugged ears on a flight can cause many consumers young and old massive discomfort, making the EarPopper device an asset. The tool can be used to naturally pop ears that have been clogged up, using one's own nasal pressure. The device is ideal to have on hand for elevated pressure situations, such as travelling by plane or elevator.

The EarPopper is a simple device that helps to relieve clogged ears caused by pressurized elevation and even allergies. The device features a squeeze tube that fits inside a nasal cavity. Users are instructed to press the button located on the device to start a stream of air that shoots up the nasal cavity. The pressure of the air pops the ears, allowing for the consumer to feel a sense of relief.
