ReliefBand Explorer - Motion Sickness Protection

The ReliefBand(R) Explorer device is a watch-like device worn on the ventral side of the wrist for use in the treatment of nausea and vomiting due to pregnancy, postoperative nausea, chemotherapy, and motion sickness. When activated, the device emits a low-level electrical current across two small electrodes on its underside. The ReliefBand(R) device is the first patented, commercially available Nausea-Vomiting device to reach the clinical marketplace.

Now with the ReliefBand(R) device, you have more opportunity to enjoy flying, boating, amusement park rides and other types of travel and entertainment without having motion sickness spoil your good time.

The non-prescription ReliefBand(R) device is unlike anything else sold for motion sickness. It offers numerous advantages. First, it is Drug Free. Because it is not a drug, you won't have the headache, drowsiness, dizziness or other side effects typical of most medicinal remedies on the market. Also, instead of having to take something several hours ahead of time, the ReliefBand can be used any time, even after nausea symptoms start.  Second, there are no restrictions on consumption of food, beverages or medications with the use of ReliefBand.  And finally, unlike medicines, pressure bands, and other passive remedies, with the ReliefBand device you control the level and duration of relief. You can actually feel it helping to control your motion sickness.

Worn like a bracelet or a watch, the ReliefBand device uses gentle electrical signals to stimulate a specific nerve in the underside of the wrist. There are five levels of stimulation; adjust the dial to the highest level that feels comfortable.  By stimulating the body's nervous system in this fashion, the ReliefBand can be used to relieve the nausea and vomiting symptoms associated with motion sickness.

Features:

  • Rotary dial adjusts output to one of five power settings.
  • Light indicates operation and low battery condition.

Do not use if wearing cardiac pacemaker.

The unlimited use Reusable ReliefBand operates for approximately 140 hours at power level 2 before you need to change the batteries.  Then it's just a matter of picking up two 3V lithium batteries (CR2025) at your local drug store or where camera batteries are sold.  The Reusable unit ensures that protection from motion sickness is always as close as your flight bag. 

Batteries and conductivity gel included.

Works great!!
by A Customer from Ellicott City MD USA 

Review: I used this on my first cruise and was very pleasantly surprised. I have always suffered from motion sickness and this really helped. Also, I was very pleased with the delivery process -- I had it in 2 days of ordering it. Thanks so much.

I Absolutely Recommend This Product!
by Lucy from Aspen CO USA 

Pros: It works! Not bulky and easy to drop in your purse or pocket.
Cons: I think it's ugly. The zapping takes a bit getting used to.
Review: A friend first lent me this product when I was visiting her in Maui, HI to drive a few hours along a very windy road. I get motion sick at a drop of a hat and was thrilled that I was able to enjoy the ride and take in the scenery with a minimal of discomfort. I only kept the setting at 3 and probably could have gotten completely rid of any dizziness at a higher setting. She also lent it to me for a trip to Africa and I suffered no motion sickness on the small bush planes I took nor on the extremely bumpy roads. I have since purchased one for myself and one for my sister.

Post-operative nausea? Not with this!
by Cathy, Medical Technologist from Grand Rapids, MI 

Pros: It works!! It works!! It works!!
Cons: I can't think of anything. It works!!
Review: I have an awful time with post-op nausea & vomiting. When I had my Achilles tendon re-attached, I warned them about my reaction to anesthesia. The nurses recommended this and I thought it was 'hokey.' But I was willing to try anything. IT WORKED! Recovery is bad enough without puking all the time. This device is terrific. Now, we're living in another part of the country and I'm facing shoulder surgery. My doctor's never heard of this. I dug up mine from 3 years ago - and it still works! I used it two nights ago with nausea from a migraine. New batteries should assure me an easier recovery and perhaps a new device for this doctor to offer. I can't thank you enough!

I highly recommend this for anyone who has motion sickness!
by Tina from Ripley WV USA 

Pros: Takes away the motion sickness!
Cons: Isn't very fashionable :)
Review: The bracelet has helped my motion sickness in vehicles, airplanes, etc. so that I can travel without feeling terrible! It has the different adjustments so that you can find the pulse that is right for you.

by Roberta R from Lexington KY USA

Best none-drug option for motion sickness
by Jeff from New Richmond WI USA 

Pros: A small package that provides wonderful control of motion sickness
Cons: Continued use over many hours temporarily numbed my ring and middle finger nerves. You need to take breaks over extended uses like on a cruise ship.
Review: The Reliefband Explorer works very well in controlling motion sickness distress. The choice of electrical signal intensities allows you to use the level that makes you feel better without over doing electrical stimulation of the middle and ring finger nerves. The relief is immediate when turned on. No need to feel droggy with motion sickness drugs(been there, done that). The batteries are longed lived for the unit. I used the used the reliefband for a 17 day cruise on the Black, Norwegian, and Berentz seas at least a quarter of the time and never had to change the batteries. I'm sure it would work well in a flight cockpit or passenger cabin as well. I whole heartly recommend this product.

This is NOT a gimmick!
by Nancy from Stow MA USA 

Pros: Immediate relief
Cons: It's not "pretty"
Review: This Relief Band was bought as a gift. I borrowed one from a friend years ago, because I didn't believe it could work I wasn't going to spend the money. I was able to go on a 2 hour helicopter flight in Hawaii and ENJOY the entire ride. (My husband, who is a pilot, was feeling sick after the first hour.) I've tried everything else on the market for motion sickness. This REALLY works!

Review: I had good results until the waves set in at 12 feet!

Review: It worked great for a month then it broke.

calm my nerves

Review: By wearing this watch, I had a wonderfull sailing trip for four days!!  It's been years since I dare to be out on any type of water sports.

Definitely works, a little high-maintenance
by Barclay from Clifton NJ USA 

Pros: Works as described, with attention to use
Cons: Hard to set in correct place on wrist, requires attention while using
Review: I was unable to take the bus to work due to motion sickness, and with this product I have no motion sickness and can now take the bus. It definitely works and I do recommend it. My only caveat, and the reason I say 4 stars instead of 5, is that it is sometimes hard to get the thing positioned exactly over the correct nerve, and I have to hold my wrist bent backwards to get enough of an effect from the device. So it's not exactly "set it and forget it," but it works well enough that it's solved my transit problems.

It REALLY works!
by Christian, Student Pilot from Chicago, IL 

Pros: It really does work. It took away all nausa and all motion discomforct. Battery lasts 150 + hours. Comfortable.
Cons: None
Review: I am not joking when I say I NEVER get motion sickness. In a car, a jumbo jet, a boat, anything; it has never happened. About two months ago I started my pilot training in a Cessna 172 and to my dissappointment I had pretty bad motion discomfort. I never threw-up, but was pretty close. This discouraged me terribly, I didn't want to continue my training even though I wanted to be a pilot. I found this product and was pretty skeptical about the results that it said it could give me. Since I already had invested a lot of money into flying, I decided to purchase this product. To my amazement, the first time I used it it worked perfectly. It didn't feel sick at ALL. I didn't even think about feeling sick, it never entered my mind. I don't use it as much now because my body has gotten used to being in a small plane, but will always carry it with me for new passangers. This product does what it says, it takes away ALL nausea and all other symptoms of motion discomfort. If it wasn't for this product I probably would not have continued my pilot training. Seriously consider this product, 120 dollars is not a small amount of money, but is worth it, in my opinion, if it allows you to do things that you normally wouldn't be able to do because of motion sickness.

Amazing little device
by Connie from Allen TX USA 

Review: I was really skeptical, but given my level of motion sickness and the fact that my doctor REALLY did not want me to use the patch I gave The Relief Band a try. On a 7 day cruise I only had to take one Dramamine and that was coming out of Grand Cayman on a night when there were a lot of green people onboard the Carnival Conquest. The Relief Band is very effective and I will use it next year in Alaska. It would be nice if it was smaller, it overwhelms my wrist. However, I did talk to a lot people who had never heard of such a thing. I told all of them to Google Releif Band. Thank you for giving a very enjoyable cruise.

I would buy it for everyone if I could!
by A Customer from Marathon, FL Keys 

Pros: It works!
Cons: Made my wrist itch, but not bad enough not to use it.
Review: I had signed up and paid for a fishing Tournament - and the day of the wind picked up, we were going about 15 miles out. Sky then water, sky then water - all you could see. I had the relief band set on 2, got nervous and moved it to 3. Never felt a twinge of seasickness, and I almost always feel sick when it's windy. Two men with us did get sick. And! We won part of the tournament!

Immediate Relief
by Jackie from Pensacola FL USA 

Pros: Fast acting
Cons: No carrying case
Review: My charter boat captain put his ReliefBand on my arm while I was getting sick over the side of the boat and it worked immediately. I felt great and continued my fishing trip with no problems. I got home and ordered one for myself.

I would buy this product again
by Mark from Galt CA USA 

Pros: fast acting and very effective
Cons: may cause rashes at the contact site
Review: I purchased the product for my wife. She was having severe morning sickness during her pregnancy. Within two hours of wearing the relief band her nausea was gone. The only down side of the product was after about three weeks of use (not constant) she developed a rash at the site of the contacts. The device was moved to the other wrist.

It's worth every penny!!
by Debbie from Newbury Park, CA 

Pros: IT WORKS!
Cons: Its not pretty.
Review: I always get seasick and many times car sick & queasy on amusement rides. This is the BEST gift my husband bought me. We went to Kauai to get certified in scuba and the final dives were boat dives (I sometimes "forget" I get seasick on a boats). I wore the relief band (which I hadnt used yet)on the dive boat and it was AMAZING! People all around me were feeling sick while waiting on the rocking boat to dive BUT I was perfectly FINE!! It has worked on car rides as well. It will give you your life back and the pulsating is not that bothersome to me, I got use to it and didnt even notice it after awhile.

Tuesday, June 24, 2008
by Kathleen from Richmond TX USA 
Pros: High hopes!
Cons: None yet
Review: I am rating this 5 stars as I have very high hopes for this product. I am going on a short Carnival Cruse in October, so have not actually tried it yet. I tend to get seasick even in the bathtub, so the reason for my high hopes. Will only be on the ship for 4 days this time out as If this works, I will be able to go again for a longer trip. Will tell you that my grandaughter used this product following a surgery for nausea and it worked for her! I do thank you in advance for offering this product!

As good as it says!
by A Customer from Tucson AZ USA 

Pros: Excellent remission of symptoms quickly; individual settings
Cons: short battery life - buy extra batteries and gel
Review: Worked well for motion sickness.

Thursday, June 05, 2008
I tell everyone who suffers from motion sickness that this is the cure
by JILL from GARDENA CA USA 

Pros: No side effects
Review: I have used this product for the past 5 years. It works for planes, trains, buses, subways and cars. I highly recommend it to anyone who suffers from motion sickness. I have traveled with others who were wearing the patch or on the over the counter medications and was the only one of the group who did not get sick.

Tuesday, June 03, 2008
by Ronald from Hilo HI USA 
Pros: No waiting for it to take effect.
Cons: none that we know of
Review: This works the best for motion sickness and nausea of any kind. There is no wait and while a lot of remedies do not work once the nausea starts, this will instantly take it way. My whole family likes it and uses it on car trips, boat trips and of course in airplanes.

It Works!!!
by Lucy from Aspen CO USA 

Pros: Nothing to swallow. Easy to transport. Use over and over again. No drowsiness.
Cons: Not attractive looking. Zapping takes awhile to get used to. It isn't water resisant - wish I could use it while kayaking and such.
Review: It's the only thing that ameliorates my motion sickness in a highly efffective manner without causing drowsiness. I recommend it to everyone. I just wish it came in a more attractive style... Also, it would be perfect if it would be waterproof...

Love this product. This is my second. I loaned one out and the borrower liked it so much she kept it.
by Lola from Fresno CA USA 

Pros: Convenient. Portable. Works
Cons: Need carrying case for this. First one I purchased had nice zippered carrying case, Price is significantly more, than the first one I purchased, and didn't have a carrying case
Review: This is effective for me, even if I haver already developed nausea. Have used it on cruise with 40 foot swells. It was fabulous. Also use it in busses, and auto rides in the mountains. Best thing, is there is no "hang over" when the aparatus is not longer required--as with ingested or topical products.

Works great
by Jim from Greer SC USA 

Review: Would have rated it higher except the shock is annoying. Better than motion sickness to me but could see where others might not think it is worth the pain.

Thursday, April 24, 2008
by Maria Mackie from Davie, Florida 
Pros: The Reliefband is lightweight, totally adjustable and it WORKS!
Cons: I cannot think of one negative regarding this product and hope to never be without it!
Review: The Reliefband is the most effective product I have ever used for motion sickeness! It was first introduced to me by an anesthesia doctor about 5 years ago. He used one for sea sickness and prescribed for me to use directly after having had surgery as the anesthesia sometimes can cause lingering nausea in some patients. Since then I have used one EVERY TIME I fly and it has prevented vomiting and nausea each and every time. I used to get nausea just visiting the airport due to breathing the heavy exhause fumes in the area. Not anymore! In fact about three weeks ago I was experiencing intermittal nausea while at home and couldn't understand why. After the first day and after trying over the counter meds I decided to try the reliefband and within 20 minutes the nausea was gone. I removed the band and 1 hour later nausea was back. I again used the reliefband and the nausea disappeared. The next day, I was completely fine. I thoroughly believe in the product and am sorry I didn't have knowledge of it while on chemotherapy 6 years ago! I would recommend it to anyone with stomach discomfort and whats more, it doesn't produce any side effects! Thank you for carrying the product and making it so easy to purchase!

Bye, bye Dramamine
by Michele from Pompano Beach FL USA 

Pros: IT WORKS - NO QUEASINESS
Cons: NEED TO GET USED TO THE LITTLE ZAPS - MASCULINE LOOKING
Review: The older I get the more I suffer from motion sickness - driving on winding roads, in a pool too long, funky ways of filming movies or even poorly made home videos all make me queasy. I was going on a flyfishing trip (on a boat, drifting - makes me ill to think of it) and did not want to ruin it for me or anyone else. Ordered the ReliefBand; it came in very quickly, was just as portrayed. I wore it under my jacket as I didn't want anyone to know - it gives you a nice little buzz on the wrist every few seconds - but you do forget about it after a while; it was amazing; I never even thought of getting queasy. IT WORKS!!! After coming in and taking it off, later that evening, in the shower I did feel a little rocking motion as if I was still on the boat - but no nausea. I have recommended to my son who gets queasy at sea - EXCELLENT PRODUCT!!

Worked for me.
by Stanley from Hillsboro MO USA 

Pros: drug free resolution of nausea
Cons: mild shicking sensation
Review: This has been used by myself before while flying and found to work for me. The recent purchase was for my wife for a cruise. She did not need the device, but while in 15 foot seas it functioned fine for me. The only drawback is accepting the mild shocking sensation. I found that even if the nausea has begun that this product will reverse the effect.

Thursday, April 17, 2008
I liked it so much I am buying this product for my husband
by A Customer from Tucson AZ USA 

Review: High expectations and they met them all. Easy to use, instructions clear - good to go in 15 minutes! Easy to discern level of stimulations, easy to apply, with good "guidelines" for personal settings. Lightweight, easily stored, can wait to assess the situation as to when to turn it on, unlike OTC medication Much better than pharmaceutical alternatives for motion sickness. Would like better battery life, but carrying extras not a big thing.

Monday, April 14, 2008
by Werner from Naples FL USA 
Review: The battary cover is not good, I tape it to avoid loss the battery

Sunday, March 23, 2008
Good product
by Carolyn from NJ 

Pros: Works without drowsiness of drugs, easy to use
Cons: not as strong as dramamine, annoying zapping feeling
Review: I have suffered from motion sickness all my life---in cars, boats, planes, etc. I bought this in desperation for a trip overseas and it really helped. I tried the Scopolomine patch and it gave me horrible side effects after 2 days. The seaband did nothing. The ReliefBand has the annoying electrical "zapping" sensation, but it beats the alternative. great for short trips, etc. but if you think you will be on a turbulent plane or boat, back up with some Dramamine, as well. BTW, KY jelly works just as well as the conducting fluid.

I'm in love !
by A Customer from Coal City, WV 

Pros: It works
Cons: none
Review: I have been plagued with motion sickness since I had my children. Living in WV, I am forced to travel curvy, winding roads. This product is WONDERFUL. I look forward to feeling the "buzz"--I know it's working. Great Product!

WOW
by Sue - Maui Dive Shop employee from Kihei, Hawaii 

Pros: No more motionsicknesss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cons: Some people don't care for the "shock" feel
Review: I have not used the new band yet but have owned two of the older models for quite a few years. I never enjoyed going on boats or in car rides because I felt so miserable. The first time I wore one, was on a boat. I left the boat smiling, leaving everyone wondering why. I now dive off boats at least three times a week. I bring along my extra one to give to people that get sick on the boat. Everyone is always amazed at how their sickness goes away immediately. I have not found one person yet that it has not helped. Definitely worth the money!

by A Customer from new jersey 
Pros: It works!
Cons: It seems a bit expensive.
Review: works great, but seems a little expensive for the technology and materials.

Saturday, August 14, 2004
by A Customer from Spokane WA 
Review: This is the third ReliefBand I have purchased. One for me, one for my sister and, now, one for my daughter. We have all suffered with motion sickness for all our lives. This device works amazingly well. Recent improvements have made it much easier to use. It really works!

Tuesday, August 03, 2004
by A Customer from Feasterville Trevose PA 
Review: We have not used the product as yet but our overall thoughts are that if it works as it says it will be a great addition to our boat.

Friday, July 23, 2004
by A Customer from Groton MA 
Review: I use the product to take the edge off morning sickness and it works quite well.
