Relief from morning sickness 
by .. Laura J. Brady ()
I bought these because I was willing to try ANYTHING to get some relief from my all-day morning sickness. I was a little skeptical. But like I said, I needed relief. Ended up wearing these all day/everyday for about a month - just removing them while sleeping/showering because they are a little uncomfortable after a while. When I started feeling better, I figured it could be the bands or it was just psychosomatic - either way, I found some relief!
As I am nearing my 2nd trimester, I figured I didn't need them as much anymore. I haven't worn them in two days. Let me tell you, I feel horrible!! These bands are going back on my wrists ASAP! These bands work for me! It isn't all in my head.
A lifesaving product that cured me of a lifetime of nausea by .. Ali In Wonderland (San Francisco)
I tried the Psi Bands today at work while wearing my new reading glasses, which had been making me really nauseated due to my extreme sensitivy to motion sickness. My nausea is gone! This is nothing short of a miracle and Psi Bands have saved my eyes, not to mention all of the money I was spending on Dramamine. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! The fact that they are so fashionable is just icing on the cake!
Handy product! by .. Kemala Purcell (Brentwood, CA United States)
The Psi Bands are great! My husband and I used them last year when we went out on a boat during our vacation and no motion sickness! It's handy to have with you for those who get motion or car sickness too! We take them with us on all our vacations! We just toss them in our bag and we are prepared!
A "sigh" of relief! by .. Heather B. Douglass (Golden, CO)
First let me take this time to thank PSI bands. This has been a bit in the making, but it's a good thing now.
PSI (pronounced sigh) bands are a life saver for so many of us out there. I have had a hard time putting this into words. I start, I stop, start, stop. I have a daughter who combats motion sickness. A long car ride isn't conducive to her system. I don't want to drug her or keep her at home or avoid travel. When I ran across Psibands I was elated. If they work on chemotherapy patients, the chances of helping folks that struggle with motion sickness and similar affliction should be pretty good.
I have been combating nausea for unknown reasons here and there and have been experimenting with prescriptions from the doctor that still fail to solve the problem. It's not a lot of fun, just comes in waves, but then I popped on my waterproof Psiband (that was an added bonus, I can wear it in the shower) and tried it out.
The medicine I was given made me tired or it was a patch that irritated my skin. Not these bands. They are comfortable, lightweight and eye-catching. In addition to all of that my daughter can wear it and I'm not in fear of putting something into her body (OTC or prescribed) for a car ride. I love the bands simplicity, ease of use; I can carry them anywhere, no prescription needed so if I'm out and about I can grab one and slap it on. Even better? I don't need to worry about drug interactions and can be as discrete (or not... they are rather stylish) as I like.
I feel like I can't say enough about the benefits of these bands. I now own one in every style to match what I have going on, fashion forward and savvy they are!
Yes, they did help the motion sickness, too. Her little wrists were just fine (and not much smaller than mine) and she loved the changes it brought in the car, and for the first time in quite a while, she wasn't as anxious and uncomfortable (to be fair we are talking about a lot of trips around town and nothing too far, but she felt better regardless). I had no mess to clean up and that was a relief for me!
My nausea is subsided when I wear a Psiband, but it's not a cure all. Consult a medical professional when you have symptoms that persist. For me, the days are more tolerable and I now wish I had owned it when I was pregnant with my second daughter. I was nauseous the entire time and I think that it would have made my life a million times easier!

I can read in the car... Yes, I can! by .. Renee (Austin, TX)
I purchased these bands for a long road trip in a passenger van on the way to go skiing. I get car sick often, and feel uneasy pretty much any time I'm not sitting in the front seat. Wearing these bands, the 12 hour car ride was completely fine - even curvey mountain roads didn't get to me. It could have been the size of the van that gave me relief, rather than the bands, but I wasn't going to risk taking them off to test. I was even able to read in the car! Yes, read! That was absolutely unheardof for me in the past. I can't even look down at my cell phone long enough to text someone without getting sick. In summary, sign me up - I'm a believer!
