Psi Bands for morning sickness relief
While Princess Kate’s condition is rare, the fact is that most research indicates that up to 80 percent of pregnant women have to contend with nausea while pregnant. Psi Bands to the rescue!
These bracelets are FDA-cleared for the relief of morning sickness, as well as the most stylish way to quell the queasies.
How do they work?
Psi Bands ($15) are stylish acupressure wrist bands that relieve nausea most commonly caused by pregnancy, travel (motion sickness), chemotherapy and anesthesia. Psi Bands are the only bands to be fully adjustable – both around the wrist and at the acupressure point. They are also drug-free, waterproof (no more soggy wrist bands!), affordable, reusable and they are specifically designed with fashion in mind.They come in five fun and colorful designs.
Psi Bands are mom-to-be tested
Psi Bands (pronounced “sigh” bands) were conceived by a mom who grew frustrated by the lack of fashionable acupressure bands to relieve her severe morning sickness. The existing products on the market were drab, not waterproof and stretched out over time. So, she went on to launch Psi Bands — a product devoted to helping mothers (and others) seeking a more fashionable and functional way to alleviate their nausea.
Psi Bands are adjustable at two areas, around the wrist and at the acupressure point. The wrist adjustment allows for different sized wrists and the possible swelling or weight gain that may occur during pregnancy. The acupressure point dial allows the wearer to adjust the pressure for personalized comfort. Psi Bands are worn on both wrists at the Nei-kuan acupressure point. Acupressure is an ancient healing art that uses pressure to stimulate the body’s natural self-curative abilities. Numerous scientific studies support the use of wrist acupressure for the relief of nausea.
