According to the University of Maryland Medical Center’s definition of motion sickness, those familiar feelings of nausea, dizziness, fatigue and headache are caused by crossed signals received by the brain from the eyes, inner ear and body. Anyone — even the most seasoned traveler — can be susceptible, and can be hit unexpectedly by these unpleasant sensations, stimulated by motion from cars, trains, planes and boats. Rather than pills and potions that leave you groggy and less than able to fully enjoy your travel experience, new treatment breakthroughs include wearable “treatables,” an industry term for over-the-counter, drug-free, FDA-cleared devices. One that’s receiving a lot of positive feedback on its effectiveness is the ReliefBand. Worn like a wristwatch, the band emits pulses in a specific frequency that stimulates the median nerve located on the inside of the wrist. The adjustable, patterned pulse activity, called neuromodulation, has been proven to block those all-too familiar waves of nausea in hospital and clinical settings during more than a decade of practical application. Now available to consumers, the unobtrusive, comfortable wristband works within minutes of the pulses being activated.
