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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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!

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.
