    Searching for a Steam Inhaler

    I have a chronic sinus problem, and have been asked to add Nutribiotics GSE (grapefruit seed extract) to water and use a steam inhaler. I have managed to find where to buy the GSE, but does anyone know exactly where I can buy a steam inhaler? Preferably not a gold-plated version. I'm travelling from the mainland to Mui Wo, and would like to avoid having to drag my bags around going from shop to shop searching (hopefully somewhere around Central). (I have tried calling a few pharmacies, no luck so far)

    Thank you.

    Do you call Fanda yet? 2545 2490.


    P.S. Is this a nebuliser?

    Try Medimart. They have several locations. I've been to the one in Admiralty. They have a wide range of health care supply. I do not have the exact address but I'm almost sure it is at the corner of Queensway road and Landale St. Have a look at their web site: www.medimart.com.hk It's mostly in chinese. Even if you can't read it, you can still randomly pick up the number of one of their locations and give them a call. Good luck.

    I thought the nearest Medimart shop was in Wanchai (Johnston Road). Its website doesn't show one in Admiralty. Of course the website could be out of date...

    Thanks to everyone for the info., but not much luck so far...
    (I don't speak Cantonese and don't have anyone who can do the talking for me) !

    Celki only stock a nebulizer at a cost of $1,700

    Medimart's English is very basic... waiting to try and catch a staff member with better English.

    Fanda have only basic English : a guy keeps yelling "wai" ! and then slams down the phone. Calling back gets a lady who is polite, but alas no English.

    Looks like I'll need to go store to store, unless anyone has some other ideas.

    All I want at the moment is a basic model, as I don't know how well the treatment will work. Here's an example :

    tks again
