[RC] motion sickness in the dark - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Ron Shaffer ron.shaffer or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== I am a SCUBA instructor and have had to deal with motion sickness alot (both my own and student's). I have found something that has worked for me (100% of the time) and my students nearly 100% of the time. They are called "Seabands" when you buy them in a dive shop but they are also sold other places under different names. They are small elastic bands with a rounded button attached to each band. When placed properly on both wrists the buttons apply pressure to pressure points that for what ever reason prevents motion sickness. I was first told about these bands by one of my students who was a nurse. She said they were used by chemo patients to prevent the vomiting associated with radiation treatment. While I was very skeptical at first I am now a big believer in them and actually keep a pair in my first aid kit. Might be worth a try... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
