A few days last week I was feeling pretty horrible. I was hit by nausea so bad that I couldn’t even function. I remembered that my BioBands package had arrived that day and I had not opened it yet. I thought well, what the heck…perfect test right here. After opening the package I pulled out a little bracelet band that had a velcro closure and a small bead inside. I was seriously doubtful… Thankfully I was wrong in my doubts! My nausea subsided tremendously! I wouldn’t say it totally left the building, but I was able to function without feeling like I was going to lose it any second! So how does it work you ask? Acupressure!
The BioBands can be used for all of the following conditions!
- Motion sickness when traveling by car, boat, plane and train
- Morning sickness
- Chemotherapy
- Surgery anesthesia
- Altitude sickness
- Migraines
- Amusement rides
- Flu symptoms
- Prescription drug related nausea
- Any type of general nausea
This is great for me! I hate to take meds unless absolutely necessary. So how does it work? The BioBand has a bead sewn into a wristband that is positioned at a precise point on either wrist. By tightening the band snugly around your wrist it applies a constant pressure to the P-6 pressure point located on the inner forearm just above the wrist. By applying continuous acupressure to the P-6 acupressure point, it is known to relieve nausea and vomiting from motion sickness, morning sickness, cancer treatments, and surgery anesthesia.
- Using an acupressure wristband interrupts the nervous system signals that bring about nausea symptoms in the body.
- The continual pressure to the P-6 acupressure points causes the release of endorphins, neurotransmitters that act as a natural painkiller within the body.
Have you ever tried Acupressure? Have you ever tried BioBands? I think this is something to keep on hand! I wish I would have had these when Morgan was little…she threw up every time we went anywhere in the car. I wonder how it would have helped my Hyperemesis when I was pregnant? I would love to hear your thoughts! I love that there are no side effects to using this treatment! No fear of overdosing either!
I received a sample of the product mentioned above to facilitate this review. No compensation was received and all opinions are my own.

I get SOOO motion sick in a car or plane but when Dennis and I flew his little Cessna to Alaska I wore bands for the entire trip. Even on a cruise excursion! Never had a moment of motion sickness. These things work!!!!!
I get sick all the time; car, boats, etc. I have always been hesitant to try these. We go on a cruise in November, I may try them this time. I don’t know 🙂 We’ll see.
Oh my goodness, I need to try this. I need it for flying and for car traveling
If I ever get pregnant again I’m going to use this. Cause I gained 30 lbs before the miscarriage because I felt horrible all day long, unless I was eating, so I was eating a lot. Ugh!
