Do Travel Sickness Bands Work?

By Gabriele 1 min read

Research shows mixed results. Some people feel much better when wearing these bands. Others notice no difference at all.

The NHS confirms that acupressure bands do not work for everyone.

In my experience testing various travel products, I found that about half of people get some relief from these bands. They work best for mild to moderate motion sickness.

These bands offer multiple advantages over medication:

  • No drowsiness or side effects
  • Safe for children and pregnant women
  • Reusable and cost-effective
  • Drug-free option

While bands help many travelers, they aren't the only solution. When planning your next trip, a luxury travel concierge can suggest additional strategies for comfortable travel.

Many travelers also use digital solutions during their journeys. Understanding how travel eSIMs work can help you stay connected without high roaming fees while managing travel apps that might help with navigation and comfort.
