PsiBands (pronounced “sigh bands”) are stylish drug-free acupressure wrist bands that relieve nausea due to travel (motion sickness), as well as pregnancy, anesthesia, or chemotherapy.

They come in five fun designs (two of them in Valentine’s RED). They are also the only bands that are adjustable at both the acupressure point and around the wrist to fit the user and allow for swelling that sometimes occurs during pregnancy and medical procedures. The FDA-cleared bands are also waterproof (no more soggy wristbands), reusable, and affordable.

About 90% of people suffer from motion sickness at some point in their lives, with women being more susceptible. From 1/3 to 1/2 of airline passengers will experience some degree of motion sickness when encountering heavy turbulence, and almost 100% of boat passengers become motion sick in rough seas. Psi Bands are worn on both wrists at the Nei-kuan acupressure point. Acupressure is an ancient healing art that uses pressure to stimulate the body’s natural self-curative abilities. Whether for an active traveler, an expectant mom or someone undergoing medical procedures, Psi Bands help people who suffer from the very common, yet debilitating condition of nausea to be able to feel better — in style!

The Story: Psi Bands were invented by two moms after discovering the positive effects of using wrist acupressure to alleviate their nausea after experiencing many months of morning sickness during each of their pregnancies. Since the existing products were dull and unsatisfying, they set out to create something both functional and fashionable for others who suffer from nausea.

The Price: Psi Bands come two to a set and sell for around $14.99 per set. They can be purchased at Amazon and some of your local drug stores.
