This is essentially the same principle as using Sea Bands or the Reliefband (mentioned below). Acupuncture for motion sickness – Some say that getting acupuncture can help.As soon as we exit, start making turns, stopping & starting, etc., reading is strictly off-limits. Personally, I have found that I can read for a short period of time in the car, but only if we are on a long stretch of mostly straight roads (like the highway). Avoid reading (especially for car sickness) – If you ever get motion sick, you probably already know this one, but I decided to mention it just in case you never made the connection.I’m a big fan of a Bloody Mary or two before take off.

Eat a little, but don’t over do it – You shouldn’t head out on an empty stomach, but being too full can add to the problem, especially if you load up on greasy foods.Watch a movie, listen to music, meditate, play sudoku…do anything that will keep your mind occupied. Distract yourself – This can be especially helpful on a plane.Focus on something up ahead that isn't moving, such as a tree or electrical pole. This is especially useful when going around curve after curve. Sit in the front seat of the car – From the front seat of the car you can see and focus on things that are not moving.The back of the plane wiggles the most, so avoid those seats whenever possible. Get a seat over the wing when flying – The plane ride is a little more stable over the wing and you won't feel turbulence as much.These are some tips, tricks, and natural things to try to avoid car sickness, sea sickness, and air sickness. Also, because some of these remedies may have unwanted side effects, I recommend you try them out BEFORE your vacation. Do your own research and talk to your doctor. I have no idea how any of these may interact with anything you are currently doing or taking. I’m just a girl who loves to travel and hates motion sickness.

(Read the update at the bottom to see what worked best for me on our last trip).ĭisclaimer: I am not a health care professional. Nothing seems to work for everyone and some have unpleasant side affects so, you’ll just have to try some and see what works best for you. Some, I’ve tried myself, many are all natural motion sickness remedies, some are over-the-counter medications for motion sickness, and some are just random things fellow travelers have said worked for them. I've done all of the digging for you! I searched far and wide, got recommendations from frequent travelers, and read a ton of reviews to put together a comprehensive list of things to do to prevent motion sickness (and I added the Amazon links for your convenience).

No doubt you’ve tried some of these, but I bet there are several here you’ve never heard of. It turns out there are MANY things we can try. So, I went on a mission to find the best remedies for all types motion sickness for kids & adults alike. So, what are we to do? Sadly, I suffer from motion sickness and my son has started to as well. If you’ve ever been air sick, car sick or sea sick, you know how it can ruin a good time. I feel your pain! I feel awful when on planes, on boats, and sometimes on car rides. And then, as the plane begins to take off, your motion sickness sets in leaving you sweating, nauseous and feeling terrible! Not a great way to start your trip. You are so excited to get to your destination and enjoy this much-needed vacation. You’ve been planning this trip for months.
