My husband and I went on a cruise for our honeymoon. About 1/2 an hour after the ship sailed, I became quite seasick. My husband went to the on-board store to get Dramamine or whatnot. They were all out. He brought back the only thing left: Sea Bands. I said "what is this ridiculous Voodoo, it'll never work, plus they don't even remotely match my outfit." We both laughed at them, but I was willing to try anything at that point, so on they went. About 20 minutes later, I was noticeably better, and about 40 minutes later, I was completely cured. I wore them for the remainder of the trip and told anyone who even remotely looked seasick to try them. The ship ran out of these, so occasionally I would let someone borrow them for a few hours or a 1/2 day....as long as I knew their room number and they promised NOT to steal these magical things from me!!! About six of us are going on yet another cruise this month, and we have ordered eight pairs of SeaBands- one for each of us, a spare, and one to give out to some poor soul who is green on the ship! They work, they are relatively cheap, and they have NO side effects. However, I doubt they'll match your wardrobe...but I doubt being green from seasickness will match your wardrobe either, so you can choose your fashion faux-pas! Me? I'd rather look strange with the wristbands and like a bright-eyed smartie as opposed to the best dressed green-faced, dull-eyed ill woman!!!!!

I suffer from some pretty intense morning sickness. Only, it doesn't just occur in the morning-- it stays with me all day! Some days it is difficult for me to get out of bed even to do the necessary things like grocery shopping or taking out the trash. Sea Bands don't get rid of the nausea, but they make it so much more bearable. I was even able to make a trip to L.A. with my husband, taking the winding canyon roads no less!

These worked great, and they are so easy to use. Just make sure you follow the directions, and they stay in the correct place. The two people who normally get seasick didn't. One of the bands slipped out of place on my other daughter- she got a bad headache. So, we know that the ones that stayed in place for all of us did work!

My company took about two hundred employees and guests on a cruise to Catalina Island. The sea was rough and most of us put on the Sea Bands. The few who didn't were soon turning very green. Some who did get sick were convinced to put the Sea Bands on and soon recovered. A small number of the women got sick even with the Sea Bands. We figured out that these women had very small wrists and the Sea Bands were not tight enough. We found that if they put one Sea Band on top of the other on just one wrist it cured the sea sickness. From the overwhelming success of Sea Bands with a large group of people, I think these can work for anyone as long as they are placed properly and are tight. They have no drugs, no side effects except a slight swelling in the hands. When I use them now, I just use one and switch from one wrist to the other when it starts to bother me. They look like sweat bands, so it's not the best look for formal occasions, but I've been able to enjoy my dinner when others were running for the exits due to sea sickness. I've had a motion sickness problem all my life, but now I can READ in the car, fly in small planes, and go out on the ocean with no fear of motion sickness. These things have changed my life for the better and I'm so thankfull!

I sent some sea bands to my elderly mother, whose inner ear problems which cause dizziness and nausea, have progressively become more troublesome to her as she ages. She wears them constantly now. While she still has some inner ear related problems such as dizziness, she reports that the nausea has diminished noticeably. She is asking me to send her some more!

This is my fourth pregnancy. I normally don't get morning sickness but I got it really bad this time around. Actually it was more like all day sickness because it would last from the time I woke up until I would go to bed! I was desperate to find some kind of cure for my nausea. My doctor wrote me a prescription for some anti-nausea pills but our insurance didn't cover them and they would have cost me $300 a bottle (no thanks)! I read about Sea Bands online and had to try them. I figured I had nothing to lose considering how cheap they were. I felt better 5 minutes after I put them on and I haven't taken them off since. I will continue to wear them everyday until I'm out of the first trimester. What a fantastic product!

I'm pregnant, and this morning sickness stinks! I was willing to try anything to help!! I read all over that sea bands could actually work, but I was pretty skeptical about it. The package insert states that it could take 3-5 minutes to kick in, but for me it was about a whole day. Now I won't take them off. I even sent my husband out to the local CVS to pick up a spare pair to wear in the shower. Crazy? Maybe. Puking less? Definitely.

I bought this product for my kids since this was there first time on a cruise and my wife and I weren't sure if they would get sea sick. Since my daughter also gets car sick and we had to drive from NY to Florida, we decided to try the bands on the way down. My daughter was reading and watching movies the whole trip to Florida. She has never been able to read or watch movies without getting car sick in the past.

On the cruise we had a few days where the boat was rocking a little and I could see my daughter wasn't feeling well. I gave her the bands and 5 minutes later she was smiling and eating diner.

So bottom line, the bands worked well and I would recomend them to eveyone who gets car sick or sea sick.

I got this wrist band(comes as a pair) for my wife who was feeling very nauseous during the day with pregnancy. She said that she felt slightly better putting them on all day. We couldn't really make sure if it was the bands but when she took them off for a day she felt much worse. It seems like the bands are working to a degree however they do not completely remove the symptoms.

My husband suffers from meniers desease. He use to have dizzy spells and get real sick when ever we had high humidity or snow coming. The bands keep him from ending up sick all the time.
