As any parent can tell you, a family road trip usually involves kids whining “are we there yet?” or “can we stop? I feel sick.” Answering the first question may present a challenge, but Sea-Band Drug Free Nausea Relief Bands may prevent the second question from even being asked!
As you know, children aren’t the only ones who suffer from motion sickness. In fact, in the U.S., 53 million people suffer from motion sickness. Children from 5 to 12 years old, women, and the elderly seem to be most susceptible to motion sickness, putting a damper on any road trip or visit to an amusement park. Here’s where Sea-Band can help!
How Sea-Band Works…
Approved by the FDA, Sea-Band works by exerting constant, gentle pressure on a point on the inner wrist known as the Pericardium 6 (P6) acupressure point. It brings effective relief within five minutes of being applied and can be used before or after the onset of nausea. The all-natural, drug-free, latex-free Sea-Band does not cause the side-effects often associated with anti-nausea medication such as drowsiness, disorientation, dry mouth or possible interactions with other drugs. It’s safe for children, pregnant women and patients taking prescription medications. Packaged in a convenient carry-case, they are washable and reusable, and available a variety of colors in sizes for adults and children.
Sea-Band is a leading drug-free remedy for motion sickness, morning sickness, chemotherapy nausea and post-operative nausea. Most recently, a 2010 study, carried out at a German clinic specializing in migraine and headache therapy, showed that Sea-Band wristbands significantly reduced nausea and vomiting: 83% noticed perceptible reduction and 44% found their symptoms markedly reduced.

Suggested retail price is $10.99 per pair in the US, and $12.99 in Canada.

What I Can Tell You:
We received the sea-bands and Sea-Band Anti-Nausea Ginger Gum to try out for ourselves. The kids were excited about the bands. We have one who always has an upset stomach. Everything makes her belly hurt. Being on a float, in a car, riding a bike, swinging on a swing, you get the idea. I was like this as a child too. Dad always had to pull the car over for one of us.
Beside the fact that the bands are super cool. The kids really like wearing them, she didn't have an upset stomach at the beach once this week. Usually we have to leave earlier than planned because of her nausea.
My favorite part of the Sea-Bands is that I know my kids don't have to ingest anything. They are completely safe for them. Just put the band on and make sure the little plastic dohickey is on the inside of the wrist.
These would have been great for me when I was pregnant with morning sickness. Man, I hate that term, I was sick all day. Also, after my surgery last year, nauseous. The medication made me sick and I usually spent the next few hours throwing up. Oh Sea-Band, where were you when I had my babies? Holding my newborns after my cesareans would have been so much better if I didn't have to hand the babies off. All new moms should be rocking the Sea-Bands in recovery.
Sea-Band uses the idea of acupuncture and puts pressure on the wrist!
This week I had a problem with some dizziness and nausea and took the Sea-Band Anti-Nausea Ginger Gum. These worked so well, I wished I had friends in their first trimester I could give some to so I could see if they worked for them. They have a bit of a bite at first but once you get past that it is all good. Beside the bite makes you forget you are nauseous for a moment.
