We’re affected by nausea for so many different reasons, from motion or morning sickness to virtual reality gaming. Though most people will turn to drugs like Dramamine to ease their sickness, a new wearable device may better provide relief: the ReliefBand.
Created by ReliefBand Technologies, the ReliefBand was designed to specifically combat nausea and vomiting. The technology uses programmable pulses “with highly specific waveform, frequency, and intensity to stimulate the median nerve on the underside of the wrist,” according to the company website. And just recently the band was cleared by the Food And Drug Administration as a “drug-free treatment of nausea associated with motion and morning sickness,” according to a press release given to Medical Daily.
