Research indicates that one in four Australians experience congestion or allergic rhinitis, yet reliance on antihistamines is decreasing as a long-term solution. A new nasal wellness device, Goodair Nosebuds, has arrived in Australia following a sell-out success in New Zealand.
What Are Goodair Nosebuds?
Goodair Nosebuds are a $198 pair of devices designed to sit comfortably in the nasal passage. They use advanced vibroacoustic technology to support the nose’s natural cleaning process, offering a drug-free, reusable, and rechargeable way to manage hayfever and allergy symptoms.
Customer Reviews and Clinical Evidence
Early users report significant improvements. One shopper noted, “After years of post nasal drip, allergies, congestion and snoring I decided to give Goodair Nosebuds a go and I am so glad I did. I have been using them for a couple of months now and I haven’t breathed this easy in years and my snoring has virtually stopped.” Clinical tests showed 95 per cent of subjects experienced significant improvement in congestion, drainage, pressure, and breathing flow.
Company Background
Goodair is a New Zealand-based health technology company. CEO Kerri McMaster said, “My husband and children suffered with chronic nasal congestion for years, so I understand firsthand how much it can affect your day, your sleep, your energy, and your focus. It was painful to observe, and I felt helpless with no alternatives to an onslaught of daily drugs to attempt to relieve symptoms.” Chief Science Officer Dr. David White added, “The nose is one of the body’s most sophisticated systems, and most solutions on the market work around it rather than with it. We have spent more than 25 years studying nasal physiology specifically to develop a solution that supports what the nose is already designed to do.”
Technology and Design
The device stimulates nasal cilia—microscopic hair-like structures that line the nasal passages—to help move mucus, allergens, and other particles more effectively. It comes with six Nosetip size options for comfort and emits a gentle vibroacoustic frequency without causing discomfort. The device has earned the Red Dot Product Design Award and the ‘Best Design Awards’ 2025.
