Hi all!

Despite the fact that my daughter regularly rides in a car since birth, when she turned 1 year old, she became terribly sick after only 15 minutes of travel time. And now every car trip turns into torture for both my daughter and me - I have to sit in tension all the way, that an attack of nausea is about to begin, and my heart bleeds when the child feels unwell...

Why does a person get motion sickness?

The main cause of motion sickness is a serious disagreement between two processes - visual and vestibular. As a result, a divergence of nerve impulse signals occurs for the brain: on the one hand, it sees that the room in which the person is located is motionless (the interior of a car, a closed cabin on a ship, etc.), but on the other hand, it clearly feels vibration due to existing pitching and instability of body position.

I didn’t dare put drugs on my little child because of the side effects of the drugs, so when he was three years old I decided to try it. acupuncture bracelet for motion sickness Travel Dream.

The operating principle of the motion sickness bracelet:

Acupressure (acupressure) is an ancient non-medicinal method of Chinese medicine, the effect of which is to apply moderate pressure on special acupuncture points that are distributed throughout the body and are connected through nerve fibers to vital organs and functional systems of the body. By influencing them, you can normalize the functioning of internal organs.

A biologically active acupuncture point responsible for the harmonization of digestive processes, stomach function, regulation of blood flow and peace of mind is located on the wrist and is called the Pericardial point P6.

Pressing the P6 acupuncture point creates a nerve impulse that travels to the brain and blocks the feeling of nausea.

For me, unlike anti-motion sickness pills, the Travel Dream bracelet had a number of positive aspects:

• no contraindications or side effects, does not cause drowsiness.
• reusable and easy to use.
• the effect occurs within 5 minutes.

Description of packaging

I was buying bracelets for my daughter, so I chose a cute pink girly design with kittens.

There is a short description on the box, it also states that the set includes 2 bracelets and is intended for children aged three years and older.

Production - Russia.

The bracelets also have an expiration date:

This seemed strange to me, because this is not a medicine. It is also not clear whether the expiration date is from the date of production or from the date of use; if the first option, then my bracelets were expired at the time of writing the review.

Inside the box there is a plastic case with bracelets and instructions:

Inside the case were 2 cute pink bracelets with kittens:

Storing bracelets this way is very convenient.

They are very small in size, made of synthetic material that stretches:

On the inside we see a plastic ball that acts on the desired point:

As for me, the ball is very large for a small child’s hand, but the manufacturers know better.

Instructions for motion sickness bracelets:

Types of bracelets:

In addition to bracelets for girls, there are also designs for boys, as well as for adults and pregnant women (to prevent symptoms of toxicosis).

Mode of application:

Place three fingers on your wrist so that your ring finger is on the crook of your wrist.

The acupuncture point will be located under the index finger between the two wrist tendons.

A question immediately arises! In the case of putting a bracelet on a child, three fingers of an adult or a child?!

The plastic ball of the bracelet should act directly on this acupuncture point on the wrist.

Wear the bracelet if you experience symptoms of motion sickness and nausea.

The bracelet begins to have an effect after 2-5 minutes, but the best results can be achieved when using the bracelet immediately before the start of the trip, before the feeling of nausea appears.

I put the bracelets on both arms in advance, so that would definitely help.

The time you can use the bracelet is unlimited.

Keep in mind that the bracelet strongly pinches the handle and is made of synthetics, so the child may experience discomfort from prolonged wear.

It is not recommended to remove the bracelet while traveling as this may cause symptoms of motion sickness.
- In case of severe nausea, you should press the plastic ball with your finger, which will quickly suppress the symptoms of nausea.

How to care:

Place of purchase: local pharmacy GORZDRAV Moscow

The cost is about 400 rubles.

For me the price is clearly too high, because... the bracelet has a simple “design”, most likely you are paying for the idea, brand and beautiful presentation.

By the way, only children's bracelets were available, and not every pharmacy sells bracelets.

Efficiency

I can’t say that acupuncture bracelets help one hundred percent; my daughter still suffered from attacks of nausea and vomiting, but the frequency of these attacks decreased by half. Perhaps the bracelets relieve symptoms. Self-hypnosis, as many write in reviews, is out of the question, because the child is not even three years old.

I believe that the reaction is individual, so it's worth a try!

Also, when transporting a child by car, follow simple rules:

• do not dress your child warmly,
• Avoid exposing your child to direct sunlight during the trip,
• The car interior needs to be ventilated,
• absence of strong odors in the cabin - tobacco, air fresheners.
• Do not feed your baby heavily before traveling.

Thank you for your attention!

Advantages: effective, no side effects, no addiction, no negative impact

Disadvantages: no

Who among us has never experienced motion sickness in transport or on water? It is a rare person who is not familiar with the symptoms of seasickness, and I am very jealous of those who know about them only from conversations. If in early childhood I normally tolerated any trips, then with age I lost this function. Anti-sickness pills are not always 100% effective, and they can also have unwanted side effects.

But motion sickness bracelets are a medical device that works flawlessly and effectively. They simply cannot fail due to the way in which they influence a person. And there are no side effects from such a life-saving accessory. The Travel Dream brand has a considerable selection of special devices that suppress the development of seasickness. This makes the choice easier, since it is not difficult to choose the desired option due to the variety.

Basically, anyone. Since this is not a medicine that is taken internally or externally, anyone can buy a motion sickness bracelet for themselves. They are allowed to be used for children; they have no contraindications for wearing during pregnancy or in situations where there are any diseases of internal systems or organs. This simple device is made from materials that should not provoke allergic reactions. Well, older people can also wear seasickness bracelets when necessary.

The idea is very simple - the accessory is put on the hand and has a certain effect on the acupuncture points that are located on the person’s wrist. When these points are impacted, a signal is sent to the brain. The brain reacts accordingly, relieving the symptoms of motion sickness. For additional and stronger stimulation, you can gently press the anti-sickness bracelet with your fingers, massage it a little, so the impact on the desired point will be more “aggressive”, and the effect will come much faster. It should be noted that this very effect is persistent; it will not disappear a couple of moments after the impulse has passed through the brain.

If you doubt that this method will work, then before you buy a motion sickness bracelet, the price of which, alas, is not the lowest, do a simple test. It is based on acupressure - Chinese medicine - acupuncture, which is the basis for creating the bracelet. Press your little finger to the edge of your palm, to the beginning of your wrist on the inside. Place your fingers on your wrist. The point where the index finger rests is the acupuncture point. It is located on both sides of the hand. Now just massage the point on the inside with your thumb for a short time, and with the rest of your fingers on the outside of your hand. You just need to do this if you feel at least mild nausea (during motion sickness or nerves, lack of sleep). The feeling of nausea will pass quickly and will not return in a couple of minutes. Anti-motion sickness bracelets will have exactly the same effect, saving you from seasickness in any transport and at any time.

They are for children, for pregnant women and for adults. The accessories themselves are colored, which the child will surely like. The box includes two bracelets. And you need to wear them on both hands, so the effect will be stronger and more lasting. Also in the box there is a convenient case for carrying accessories and an instruction insert.

You can buy this non-medicinal remedy for motion sickness at any pharmacy. The price differs depending on the accessory option.

Suitable devices for everyone cost from 370 rubles. Large size bracelets will cost a little less, their price starts from 330 rubles.

Children's motion sickness bracelets cost in the range from 370 to 420 rubles. It is recommended to wear them from the age of 3, although there are no clear conditions, since such accessories have no side effects.

An anti-sickness bracelet for pregnant women also costs from 370 rubles.

Such a convenient and easy-to-use device easily relieves any symptoms of seasickness, blocks nausea, and prevents vomiting. They are not addictive and do not have a negative impact on health. Therefore, it is better to wear them than to choose and buy medications for motion sickness, which may not work properly.

Before use, be sure to consult a specialist

"Motion sickness" in transport

Traveling gives positive emotions and new experiences, but can be accompanied by unpleasant symptoms of motion sickness. It happens that a short trip out of town causes dizziness in the car, weakness and symptoms of vomiting. And what can we say about long-term movements - you can get motion sickness on a train, on an airplane and on a sea cruise.

Why do symptoms appear?

The reason for “motion sickness” lies in the perception of signals entering the central nervous system from the senses. When moving in transport, the vestibular system tells the brain that movement is occurring, while vision signals that objects around are stationary. The body takes this situation as a threat and causes symptoms similar to poisoning. In children, the vestibular apparatus is poorly developed, so motion sickness occurs more often in them - the child feels nauseous, there are complaints that he is “dizzy and wobbly,” and the child may vomit.

Before use, read the instructions.

A short note on the topic of motion sickness in transport, sometimes asked. In general, I don’t often get motion sickness, but my mother suffers from this to the fullest. She doesn’t feel very good in the car, on buses, and even on trains. Maybe age, maybe something else. Moreover, the older I get, the more susceptible I am. I remember I went to Pai and happened to sit at the very back of the car, and the Thai drivers were running around like crazy, so we chatted a lot, I came out all green.

In general, if you are familiar with this situation, then it is best to prevent it. Especially if you go to the mountains. There are tablets for motion sickness, you can buy them at any pharmacy and they are often sold at 7-eleven too. Come and say - car sickness (car sickness). If the pharmacist speaks English, he will immediately understand what is being said. If he doesn’t speak, then a one-man show comes to the rescue; I think everyone understands how to portray. I did it :)

Alternatively, you can show the name in English - Dimin or just a picture from my post. It will be easier, they will definitely understand. Just in case, I remind you, be sure to get medical insurance, especially when traveling to Asia. Especially for you, I constantly update my insurance ratings, which I create based on reviews and personal experience.

In other countries they may have a different name, but the active substance will be the same - Dimenhydrinate. The tablets themselves are often called Dramamine. In principle, you can take it with you straight away from Russia, I take a couple of tablets with me just in case. But on sea excursions they are often given out before departure.

Bracelet against motion sickness in transport

And there is another way, not medicinal. When I saw him for the first time, I thought what the hell was this. But it really works, oddly enough! It has already been tested several times. So, we are talking about acupuncture bracelets with a pimp that presses on a certain point on the hand. You can buy them in Moscow at a pharmacy, they cost about 500 rubles.

Honestly, the price is too high for a cloth, considering that the bracelets also get lost. Therefore, the solution is to order for pennies on Aliexpress. They only cost about a buck. If they don’t work, at least you won’t mind throwing it away or giving it away.

When shopping on Aliexpress you can receive cashback up to 11%. For this you need a couple of my life hacks. I wrote everything in great detail in mine, how and what to do.

I don't know if this thing helps everyone, but it definitely works for some people. That is, not to say that it always works, but at least if you don’t read a book for hours in the car, then you can forget about motion sickness. I speak from personal experience; it is very convenient for long journeys. Although I myself usually just take a pill, fortunately I don’t drive along serpentines every day.

P.S. I read some more reviews, and as I understand it, about 1 out of 10 are unlucky, and these bracelets do not work. Although maybe they are simply worn in the wrong place on the arm.
