Motion sickness, resulting from sensory mismatches in the brain, can be alleviated with natural health methods that reduce nausea and stabilize the nervous system. Ginger, a proven antiemetic, calms the stomach and reduces dizziness. Acupressure on the P6 wrist point helps suppress nausea signals. Staying hydrated with small sips of water prevents symptom worsening. Focusing on a fixed point like the horizon aligns visual and inner ear signals. Fresh air mitigates stuffiness, easing discomfort. These science-backed remedies provide practical, drug-free ways to manage motion sickness during travel or other activities.
- Take ginger capsules or sip ginger tea before travel.
- Apply acupressure to the P6 point for 1-2 minutes.
- Sip water or electrolyte drinks to stay hydrated.
- Look at the horizon or a stable object to reduce dizziness.
- Stay in open air to avoid stuffiness and nausea.
