Travel SicknessStore Top | Travel Sickness  | Travel Sickness can spoil any journey, and generally the best cure is simply to stop and get off! Sea Sickness can often be the worst of all, and they say the only sure fire cure is to sit in the shade under a tree - but that isn't always easy when on a boat...
Fortunately though there are many other remedies available, and we've tried and tested most of them during a year afloat with three young children. Most of them work equally well with Motion Sickness of any kind, whether travelling by air, land or sea, and some of them can also help with the nausea experienced during chemotherapy. |
|  | We've got the gear......so buy it here!
There are many drugs available that can be quite effective with Travel Sickness, but they're not always ideal for children or for use over an extended period of time. Consequently, we've assembled a list of alternatives, starting with some preventative measures such as Wrist Bands and Ginger, and finishing with Sick Bags and Clean Up Wipes, just in case it does all get a bit too exciting, so click on the links below, when you know where you want to go....

Wrist Bands can often prove to be very effective at combating Travel Sickness and Nausea. There are two main variants - those that rely on acupressure, like Sea Bands, and those that use electical stimulation, such as the Relief Band or iTrans. | | Having something sweet to suck can often help quite a bit when suffering from Travel Sickness. It gives the digestive system something to do when you can't face anything else, and the sugar can provide a much needed energy boost. Queasy Pops and Queasy Drops are particulary good in this respect as they're also specially formulated to help combat queasiness.
| | Ginger is widely used as a degistive aid for mild stomach upset and is commonly recommended by health care professionals to help prevent or treat nausea and vomiting associated with Motion Sickness, Morning Sickness and Chemotherapy. | | Aromatherapy is a form of complimentary medicine based on the use of concentrated essential oils from the flowers, leaves, bark, branches, rind or roots of plants with healing properties. Homeopathy is a system of medicine that uses active ingredients in minute doses to stimulate the body's own natural healing processes. | | Nevasic is a unique audio programme on a CD that stops nausea and vomiting by stabilising the balance receptors in the inner ear - you're never sick with Nevasic!.
A slight exaggeration no doubt, but if it still sounds too good to be true, read on below....
| | If all else fails, make sure you keep a few Sick Bags handy!
Sick Bags will safely contain anything that does threaten to reappear, and the potential for embarassment is much reduced by having a few Sick Bags close at hand. | |
