Reliefband Classic Motion Sickness Wristband w/ 1 Extra Gel Tube - Easy-to-Use, Fast, Drug-Free Nausea Relief Band Helps with Morning Sickness, Nausea

The Reliefband has been a lifesaver for me and allows me to fly in comfort. Plane landings used to be agony for me but I actually enjoy them now since I don't have to put all my effort into trying not to throw up. I've been using the product for years and just replaced one that I had purchased 15 years ago. Not too long after that purchase, the product was discontinued and when it was re-introduced, finding one with a replaceable battery was impossible. I'm grateful the one I had has lasted as long as it did. On my last trip I noticed that even at Level 5 the pulse was weak but it still was enough to get me through a bumpy landing. So, it was time to purchase a new one and I am pleased that I was able to find one with a replaceable battery here on Amazon. What I love about Reliefband is that I don't have to take a drug that's going to make me drowsy and those didn't work well for me anyway, since the cabin crew wants you to try to be awake and alert during landings. I can also turn it on/off as needed during a flight. The nausea relief is instant! I witnessed that first hand when I saw my sister dealing with post-surgery nausea. She had my band on and while it was working to a degree, nausea broke through, and she ran to the bathroom to go throw up. I grabbed her hand as she was kneeling at the toilet and cranked the band up to Level 5. She then stood up and looked at me in total amazement because the nausea was gone. Yeah, it was that fast. There were no other incidents for her after that. One thing I've learned from my own experience with this band is that once it's seated properly and the pulse/vibration is working I needed to be careful not to jostle the band or move my hand too much lest I lose that sweet spot. But that's a small price to pay for nausea relief. I did notice that the vibration plates on the back of the newer band are larger than the ones on my old one. So maybe that will allow for more movement. I'd also like to give a shout out to the company itself. I was supposed to receive an extra tube of conductivity gel with my order and that extra tube was missing. When I contacted the company about my order I received a reply from them within a few hours that stated they would send that extra tube out right away. It came within two days. So, I am a very satisfied customer.

I have only used this twice so far. The strap is kinda long for my wrist (but I have small wrists so I'm not surprised). It did make my nausea go away! It took about 10 minutes before I started to notice, but it's nice that there is an option that does include medicine! I was skeptical to buy it because of the price, but now that I have it is totally worth the price! It somewhat helps with dizziness, but I think it only helps if you are dizzy from being nauseous. Would definitely recommend!

Love this, my mother had got one a year or so earlier and loved it, so I got one as well and it works amazing.

I bought it in preparation for a trip to Germany where there would be a lot of travel by road and rail, both of which can make me very motion sick. I did the same trip last year so I could compare any difference. Good news: It works! The long trip by car from Hannover Airport to Goettingen (a couple of hours) that made me sick as a dog last year went by fine with minimal discomfort. So too bus and tram trips that were very unpleasant last year went by smoothly this year. But it doesn't work perfectly well. Long multi-hour car trips still make me car sick (but not train/tram trips). Main negative points are: the watch strap is very difficult to put on because the device has to be on the inside of your wrist, so you have to buckle the device while keeping the electrodes on wrist. Plus you have to smear a conductant on your wrist so the whole putting on the Reliefband routine isn't all that quick or easy. Bottom line: It works and is worth the inconvenience of putting it on.

I never leave a bad review but this is a one. It worked great at first. When it was time to change the battery, I found it was almost impossible to do it right, if you're a common customer like me. Most of us are not experts to handle button batteries! The plastic battery holder is so easy to break! And this product can not be returned due to food safety( the gel touch your skin). If you want to spend $150 just for one trip, then you might be happy with it.
