Nausea Relief Wristbands (1 pair of reusable accupressure wristbands)
Nausea Relief wristbands as a natural way to ease some of the negative effects it can have. Research has shown that patients who wore acupressure wristbands reported less chemotherapy-related nausea on the day of treatment compared with those who didn't wear them. The plastic stud attached to the inside of the wrist band exerts pressure and stimulates the P6 (or Nei-Guan) acupressure point. It is widely believed that pressure on this point relieves nausea and vomiting.
