Steam nebulisers
Steam
— these nebulisers generate inhalable steam through the conventional method of heating water, resulting in higher temperatures compared to compressor or ultrasonic nebulisers. The primary advantage lies in the warming effect on the upper respiratory tract. However, the notable limitations stem from the elevated temperature, leading to numerous contraindications for the procedure and potential degradation of many medicinal substances (with exceptions for certain herbal remedies and essential oils). Consequently, steam inhalers are less prevalent than other types due to these considerations.Show
