Safe and Sound Travel Sickness Bands for Ages 2+. Colour Received Will Vary. 2 Per Pack

Product Information

Those whose wrists are in between the preset sizes of the adjustable strap might prefer a bracelet with an elastic band. The center ring of the pressure point can be adjusted outward for a more amplified effect, which is nice to have for particularly hectic experiences like a trip to the amusement park.

Avoid heavy meals and do not drink alcohol before and during travelling. It may also be worth avoiding spicy or fatty food.

Ultimately, if you are on any sort of nausea medication, you could save yourself time and money by giving the Sea-Band a try. You will be surprised at how much relief a pair of cheap wristbands can provide. The control scheme will look familiar. It has a one button design that you long press to toggle power and short press to cycle between the five electrostimulation levels. The highest level is quite powerful and I only ever had to crank it up to 2 to avoid nausea from a VR gaming session, but then again, your results may vary. Avoid strong smells, particularly petrol and diesel fumes. This may mean closing the window and turning on the air conditioning, or avoiding the engine area in a boat.

On long journeys, try breaking the journey to have some fresh air, drink some cold water and, if possible, take a short walk. Try listening to an audio book with your eyes closed. There is some evidence that distracting your brain with audio signals can reduce your sensitivity to the motion signals. The rechargeable battery is one of the Reliefband’s biggest advantages over its predecessor, the Reliefband 1.5, yet it is also the largest source of complaints from users. It lasts about 17 hours on medium intensity but several users have observed that the battery discharges alarmingly fast even when the device is fully powered off.

Try a cool flannel on your forehead, try to get fresh air on your face and do your best to find a way to rinse your mouth to get rid of the taste. Hyoscine, or scopolamine, patches are suitable for adults and for children over 10 years old. The medicine is absorbed through your skin, although this method of medicine delivery is slow so the patch works best if applied well before your journey. Breathe deeply and slowly and, while focusing on your breathing, listening to music. This has been proved to be effective in clinical trials. Remember, if you give children medicines which cause drowsiness they can sometimes be irritable when the medicines wear off.
