5.1 How the Steam Inhaler Works

The Vicks Personal Steam Inhaler operates by gently boiling water in its base unit. The resulting warm, moist steam rises into the contoured face mask, where it is directed into your nasal and throat passages. This process helps to moisturize dry mucous membranes, loosen mucus, and provide temporary relief from congestion and irritation.
