    Reliefband

    For morning sickness

    • Length of Use: Less than 3 months
    Overall Experience:

    Morning sickness for me was debilitating. I ordered the Reliefband Sport, it does take the edge off and allows me to function, I’d say about a 75% reduction in nausea intensity. HOWEVER there is a mostly, constant tingling into the thumb area of my hand, it feels like a pins and needles feeling and is not a comfortable feeling at all. Additionally, I will get occasional “zingers” which feel like an electric shock from my median nerve.

    I do not have a palmaris longus muscle/tendon on either wrist (which only occurs in less than 10% of the population). The lack of this muscle may allow the stimulation to be greater to the median nerve.

    When I tried the band on hubby (who does have that muscle) he said that the most he felt was like a 9-volt battery sensation directly under the band and that was on the highest setting.

    Pros and Cons:

    • Nausea relief
    • Constant pins and needles feeling
    • Wearing it constant and was irritating to my wrist
    • Occasional electric shock feeling

    Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
