Reliefband

Just a little piece of techwear for the growing market of ship travellers. This reliefband helps everyone who wants to to ward off motion sickness. Background:

acupressure bands worn on the wrist may stimulate a point on the inside of the wrist (the PC6) that may activate the part of the brain associated with nausea relief, says Dr. Robert Bonakdar, director of pain management at Scripps Center for Integrative Medicine.

You can choose one of five stimulation levels at the band. The electrical impulse creates a tingling sensation that travels up the wrist through the palm of the hand and into the middle fingers.

But keep in mind that not everything works for everybody.
