I've been on two trips where seasick prone people very successfully used
these. On one trip the bands were lost and within one hour of leaving the
dock the person was feeling very ill. This all may be the power of
suggestion but they do work for everyone I've seen try them. The only
caveat is on multi-day trips the acupressure point gets raw
