Sea-Band Review & Competition

As you may have read from my previous post I have just arrived home from a mini cruise to Amsterdam, so when I saw that Sea-Band were asking for reviewers a couple of months ago I asked to be considered to try them out. When we last went to Amsterdam I had to take sea sickness pills to make me feel better. The sea wasn't very rough but it made me feel very ill.

Both Callum and I aren't the best of travellers - we never have been, I'm lucky that I don't throw up but I do feel very sick on long journeys by car and hate buses with a passion! (I normally take pills before a long journey or when I start feeling sick). Callum on the other hand does throw up - not often I may add but we have had occasions were we've needed to stop and clean the car! Sea-Band have come to our rescue and I wish I had known about them years ago.

When I first got on the cruise ship on Saturday afternoon the sea was pretty calm and I thought I would be fine and didn't put the Sea-Band on. About 3 hours into the journey I started to feel a bit icky not so much that I was going to be sick but enough to not make me want to eat anything just in case. So I decided this was the time to put them on. Within 5 - 10 minutes I was feeling 100 times better, 10 minutes after this I decided to have something to eat. I kept the bands on until it was time to go to bed and put them straight back on in the morning until we docked in Holland. When we returned to the boat on Sunday night I put the Sea-Band on before we boarded and didn't feel ill once all night. 

Sea-Band are:

• A Natural relief - no drugs
• No side effects
• Effective
• Reusable
• Washable

Sea-Bands may be used to relieve motion sickness, morning sickness and cancer nausea and vomiting. To ensure your Sea-Bands work properly, these instructions show you how to position your wristbands correctly.

• Place your middle three fingers on the inside of your wrist with the edge of the third finger on the wrist crease. The Nei-Kuan point is just under the edge of your index finger between the two central tendons.
• Position the button facing downward over the Nei-Kuan point. Repeat the process for the other wrist.
• One band must be worn on each wrist to be effective. Sea-Bands can be put onto your wrist before you start travelling, or after you have started your journey.
• Sea-Band is suitable for adults and children.

You can purchase Sea-Band here. Adult and Child wrist bands are priced at £8.15 a set. Adult bands are grey in colour but you can buy child bands in 3 different colours. 

I cannot believe how great Sea-Band are. I was very sceptical that they would work and have always had to take pills in the past when I have felt ill on long journeys but now I know that I don't have too. I would highly recommend them to anyone who suffers from travel sickness or who is pregnant and suffering morning sickness. I have rated them with a well deserved 5/5 rating.
