Naturopathic Relief:
From Dr. Wiesner, Naturopathic Physician at Sea Change
Swelling, redness, and pain in sinuses can be caused by sensitivities and allergies to certain foods. Common allergens are found in foods containing wheat or dairy, try to eliminate these foods from your daily diet for few weeks.
A nasal wash can be helpful in keeping your sinuses congestion free and eliminating pain. A natural saline solution (Ocean) can be purchased at a drug store or made at home. Purchase Sea Salt (at most supermarkets) and mix it with bottled or distilled water. Put it in a spray bottle or squeeze container and flush sinuses often each day.
Sinusitis pain can be avoided by reducing congestion and allergic reactions. Try natural antihistamine and anti-inflammatory vitamin C (1 or 2 grams daily), quercetin (500 mg, 3 times a day), or bromelain (500 mg, 3 times a day)

From scientists at La-Tee-Da! :
Improv air quality and eliminate unhealthy odors to enhance health conditions by burning scent-sational fragrances through La-Tee-Da!’s effusion lamp. The catalytic burner will release negative ions, neutralize the particles and rid those impurities in the air, while disinfecting some of the airborne microorganisms in the environment.

27-fragrance blends
Effusion Lamps exchange fragrance for the unwanted odors in the air. The Effusion Lamp works at approximately one-fourth (1/4) the temperature of a candle. It pulls Effusion Lamp Fragrance up through the wick to the burner. The burner releases fragrance and will saturate a room more quickly and consistently than any other fragrance products. It typically takes about 30 to 45 minutes to fragrance an average size home.
Effusion Lamps release fragrance while eliminating odors without a continuous flame. There may be slight smoking while your lamp is oxidizing air particles - this is steam, not soot. The fragrance burns at about an ounce an hour, so it is very economical to burn throughout each day. Their "Dilute Fragrance" is a neutralizer that will tone the fragrance down for those who prefer a lighter fragrance.
