EmeTerm Fashion Anti-Nausea Wristband Relieve Morning Motion Travel Sickness Rechargeable Drug Free Bands Without Side Effects - Extra 2pack Conductive Gel (Black - Extra 2pack Conductive Gel)

The media could not be loaded. This product has been a lifesaver! Ok, bare with me, this will be long:So I've dealt with chronic health issues for over a decade, and one that has always been a constant is nausea. Sometimes with anxiety attacks, sometimes with motion sickness, sometimes from eating, and sometimes just for no good reason. I've learned to get used to it, more or less, and have taken multiple different prescription meds over the years to help lesson the symptoms that tests have been generally unable to find the cause of. I had stumbled across these types of electric pulse bands a few years before, but had always been unable to afford them, so I just crossed them off my list and pretty much forgot about them, opting instead to try seabands and other solutions that never really seemed to work. Well, recently I have had a bit more income coming in, and decided to do some research on these guys to see if they would be worth the splurge to try one more thing. After reading some articals and comparing different products, I chose the EmeTerm Band to give a try over the ReliefBands. Here's what made my decision:Chargeable: Both the EmeTerm and ReliefBand 2.0 are rechargeable, while the Classic ReliefBand ran on small batteries. Reviews said that the EmeTerm could hold a charge for a few days of continuous use, while the ReliefBand Classic's batteries could last a year, and the 2.0 version reportedly had a rather poor charge life; as I can feel rather sick for extended periods, this removed the 2.0 from my choice list. A cooler look compared to their older product was not worth a poor battery life.Appearance: The EmeTerm is slightly more bulky than the ReliefBand 2.0 (which has the look of a FitBit) but is still rather sleek and modern looking compared to the Classic ReliefBand, which looks like a somewhat ugly watch. How it looked however was really just a side note, but the EmeTerm wasn't too bad in that department.Function: The EmeTerm has very easy controls; one button and five lights to indicate pulse level. Holding the button for a few seconds will turn it on, while doing the same will turn it off, with the lights running upward to indicate the former, and running down to indicate the latter. Pushing the button once will then subsequently turn the pulse level up one, and double clicking the button will bring the level down one, with the lights indicating what level you are on, up to level five. The simplicity of this really put it up to the top of my list.Price: At $99.00, the EmeTerm was the cheapest option, the Classic ReliefBand being about $119.00, and the 2.0 nearly $200.00 (at the time I was researching).So, after all this I decided to try out the EmeTerm. If I didn't like it, I figured I would return it, try the ReliefBand, and go from there. The other reviews for this product also greatly helped my decision. Here is my own review:YEESSSSSSSSSS!!!!! When I first received it, I opened the box to find that it was already nearly fully charged! So I was excited to try it out right away. I was a bit nervous, as I had never tried this kind of thing, and when I turned it on to its lowest setting, I was a bit shocked (haha) at how strongly I felt the electric pulses. I was almost afraid I would find it too uncomfortable to wear, but decided that I would just keep wearing it a little at a time to see if I would get used to it, and luckily I did! While the sensation does still get a bit uncomfortable at times (especially on the higher levels) I have found that it tends to mostly fade to the background, and it is absolutely worth it either way! If I'm feeling nauseous, I start it out on level one and slowly move up the levels depending on how severe it is. I've noticed it can start to relieve my nausea within 10 minutes, and in more severe moments, at least keep it from getting worse, and will still slowly bring me much needed relief. I also put in on if I suspect I might need it, as a preventive measure, such as before I get in a car, and I have definitely noticed a difference! While I still will take anti nausea medication if I feel I need it, I am no longer reaching for my pills as a first response, instead I immediately put on my EmeTerm Band for relief! And both together really help me more than anything I have tried in the past! It's become my lifeline, I always have it next to me, and put in on every time I leave the house just in case, even if I don't end up needing it. Having it nearly replace my pills is absolutely wonderful, as it gives me none of the side affects that they do. I sincerely wish that I could have gotten this sooner! Also, I've found that I can have this thing on for hours at a time, at different levels, for DAYS, and still have it keep up a charge. I haven't run out yet, and it lets you know how much charge is left with the lights right after you turn it on, which is handy. And it charges back up quick! It never takes more than an hour to get back up to full charge, if that! A great feature if you need this thing frequently.Now, some concerns that I read in other reviews:That the band doesn't always stay on correctly. There are no real clasps that hold the band in place, instead there is a metal bit that is pushed into a hole on the other side of the silicon band, and a rubber one further down to keep the end in place. I got the one with the newer band, and while it does sometimes still come loose, I can generally move around quite a lot without any issue of it falling off. If you really want to make sure it stays on, say if you're on a boat, an extra tie might be needed to make sure it stays in place, but I find that slight issues with the band are not worth passing this product by. Also, if the holes don't line up to give you the perfect fit, a piece of tissue or cloth between my wrist and the band works just fine.It seems to not work as well the longer you use it: I have noticed that the shocks don't seem as strong anymore, but was able to alleviate the worry that it wasn't working by having a few other people try it on. Their reactions let me know that it's still pumping out the power, and that I've just lost a bit of sensitivity to it. Even if I can't feel the pulses as strongly, I'm still getting the results, so I'm not worried. Also, really make sure that you use alcohol wipes on the inside of your wrist and on the electric sensors before each use, IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE! I forgot to do it quite a few times, figured it didn't matter, and then when I used the swabs again, BAM! Right back to full shocky glory!Some additional things you should know: You can feel the pulses go up parts of your hand and your fingers, which is normal. It lets you know it's hitting the correct nerve, and can generally be ignored once you get used to it. Higher pulse levels may also cause spasms in your hand, mostly in your thumb, which aren't painful but can get a bit annoying if you need to use that hand. Still worth it. I've included a video of what this looks like on me.TLDR: This thing is amazing! It works great, and has really improved my life, so if you have problems with nausea, GET IT! Don't hesitate! It is absolutely worth every penny, and I don't think I'll ever take it off! Definitely one of the best purchases I have ever made!

I’ve gotten motion sickness my whole life, but I love theme park rides. I’m fine on roller coasters because of the straight ahead motion, but most motion simulator and spinning rides will make my stomach churn. I don’t like taking Bonine because it makes me very drowsy, and when I saw this band, I really hoped it would work. I gotta say without a doubt it does. How the band works is that the small shock it gives you interrupts the signal your brain tells your stomach when the inner ear senses imbalance that causes motion sickness. I first tried it by having my wife get me car sick on purpose. When I started getting queezy, I put on the band, and my stomach immediately felt better. The main reason I bought it was to use it at Disney World (acronyms are parks and rides), and it made my whole trip more enjoyable. At Epcot I rode GoG and MS back to back with zero and I mean zero issue. My brain sensed that I should have been sick, but my stomach said “nope, never got the message.” At AK, I rode EE, and the backwards part always made me regret riding. Got off the ride and the stomach was like “all good here,” when my brain knew I should be sick. Same for FoP. I always felt clammy getting off of it because it’s a motion simulator, but no problems at all. The real test was ST at HS. Being trapped in a motion simulator box always made me sweaty and nauseous coming off. Nothing. Again, brain said something was wrong, but my stomach never got the message. I’d wear the band for about 10 minutes before I got on to get used to it and only needed it for a couple of minutes afterwards. It blew my mind that something like this works. I don’t know about using it for a week or a cruise or how my body will react to using it over a long period of time. All I know is that it worked as I intended it to in theme park rides of short duration. It saved me from being drowsy all day from taking anti-nausea medicine. So happy with this purchase.
