As the holiday travel season approaches, travelers are making their packing lists and checking them twice -- to be as prepared as possible in the hopes that their holiday travel goes smoothly. However, whether by car, boat, train or plane, a holiday journey can quickly turn sour unless you are prepared for the nausea that often accompanies travel. That is why Psi Bands, drug-free acupressure wrist bands that relieve nausea due to travel (motion sickness), are a "must have" for travelers who will brave the roads, rails and airways this season.
Psi Bands come in five different fun designs (two of them unisex), and are uniquely adjustable at two areas, around the wrist like a watch and at the acupressure point for personalized comfort. The FDA-cleared bands are also waterproof (no more soggy wrist bands), reusable, and affordable.
Psi Bands (pronounced "sigh bands" as in breathe a sigh of relief) were invented by two “mompreneurs” after personally experiencing many months of morning sickness during each of their pregnancies and finding nausea relief due to wrist acupressure. However, they found the existing products on the market to be dull and unsatisfying and were inspired to create something both functional and fashionable for others who suffer from nausea.
Motion sickness strikes when the body, the inner ear, and the eyes send conflicting signals to the brain....
