Sea-Band Anti-Nausea Acupressure Wristband for Motion & Morning Sickness, 1 Pair, Gray

TL;DR - these cured my nausea from 3D games.I've been a gamer all my life. I grew up loving 3D games, but as I grew into adulthood I slowly developed nausea when playing or even watching 3D video games. It finally got so bad I stopped playing 3D, and for years I limited myself to side scrollers. Then Skyrim came, and obviously nothing would stop me from playing it. I couldn't play more than 10 minutes without being overwhelmed by the nausea: flushed hot face, pressure in the stomach, abs clenching. Day after day I pushed myself a little further each time (more than once unintentionally causing myself to actually vomit), until finally I could play for a full hour before retreating in agony to lay down and breathe slowly. It may sound like hell to anyone reading this, but if you too love Skyrim then you understand my sacrifice.Flash forward to a few weeks ago: I started Elder Scrolls Online. Then a friend recommended Sea-Band to me. When I saw it on Amazon I thought it looked pretty fake. But I decided to try it. I don't know how to put into words the feeling I had for those first minutes of playing while wearing the Sea-Band wristbands. It was surreal, I was kind of in disbelief. The nausea was completely gone. I cautiously continued playing and felt fine, but I stopped myself after 30 minutes because I was afraid maybe the nausea was somehow delayed and would catch up to me, but it didn't. The next day I played for an hour. And the next day more. I finally accepted that I can now play as long as I want, just like in childhood.I waited weeks to write this review. I thought maybe the effect was a placebo that would wear off in time. Well, it hasn't lost its effectiveness one bit. I start up my game every night, and as it loads I take that time to slip on and adjust the wristbands. I play as much as I want, and when I stop I feel just as comfortable as when I started. I don't get even a hint of nausea.Because of how effective this Sea-Band is, I've been able to start using a technique I've been wishing to try for a long time: moving and looking around independently. This is a really important skill in 3D gaming, but as a kid I couldn't coordinate doing two things at the same time, and as an adult that technique has always made the nausea a million times worse. Now I'm able to use my bow and arrow to shoot at enemies while fleeing backwards. Don't judge! ;)So, thanks Sea-Band for allowing me to spend time in Tamriel without getting sick IRL!

for me, these sea bands work just as well as otc anti-nausea meds. I wear them in cars, on planes and boats–really any time I know I'll be moving with the possibility of motion sickness. they are affordable and actually work. pop them in the wash and you're good to go.

I watched the video of this product where they showed how this works -- pressing on the wrist at P6 spot, 3 fingers from the palm of the hand, so while waiting for the arrival of this sea band order, I tried pressing both of my wrists at the spots the video mentioned (where the buttons on the sea band would be) and it helped me tremendously. I used to feel so dizzy during car rides that I try to avoid it unless necessary, and someone else would have to drive slowly, stop slowly. I could not even drive since I started to have dizziness years ago.But following instructions from the videos, I used both thumbs to press on both sides of my wrists and I have been feeling better riding in the car. Thank God and thank you for this help, although the sea bands are too tight on me, and the buttons on them don't seem to make any difference in terms of relieving my dizziness, the concept of pressing on the P6 acupuncture spots on my wrists helps a lot!

My roommate works for a large retail chain that operates worldwide—very noisy environments, bright lights, and a constantly chaotic atmosphere. As many of you know, panic attacks can be absolutely debilitating. My roomie struggles with them often, but these bracelets have reduced them to zero.They're comfortable, reliable, and truly effective. Thank you for giving my roommate peace of mind. This product made a real difference in both our lives.

I get chronic nausea, and I'm on two different medications for it. I'm not really sure if this works. I was given a pair in the hospital after a surgery and ended up sick even with these on. I figured it was the meds, so I decided to try again. I don't feel much different with these on. And I still have to take nausea meds and precautions with them on. I like the color and comfort of them as a maybe just incase they actually do do something. But I cannot tell if they are actually effective or not. I don't know why people say they smell weird, I smell nothing on them. The quality is good, and the price isn't too bad.

I wore one the entire cruise as a just in case. Its lightweight and barely noticeable. One the one day the waters got choppy, I was the only one in our group of 15 that was not bothered by it. And it comes in lots of great colors.Effectiveness:It worked.Quality:None of the 8 I used ever fell off or came apart.Size:Size is completely adjustable.

Absolute life saver for my pregnant wife. Works effectively as soon as it's worn. Very light and comfortable.

I bought these Sea-Band wristbands for my parents before our family cruise, and they ended up being a great choice. Both of them are prone to motion sickness, and I wanted a natural, drug-free option to help them enjoy the trip. They were a little skeptical at first, but after wearing them during the first day at sea, they noticed a real difference—less queasiness and more confidence to enjoy the activities on board.The bands are easy to put on and comfortable enough to wear for hours at a time. The pressure point does feel a bit odd initially, but they got used to it quickly. The fact that these don’t have any side effects like drowsiness (unlike some medications) was a big plus for them.Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that they’re not a magic fix. On rougher days, the bands helped, but didn’t eliminate the nausea completely. I'm not convinced that this is all just a placebo effect, but I'll give the 4 stars anyway lol.
