Psi Bands
Nausea Relief Acupressure Wristband
6.9/10 overallAround £8 for a pair
An adjustable acupressure wristband using the same P6 pressure-point principle as Sea-Band, in a wider range of colours and patterns.
Psi Bands work on the identical P6 acupressure principle as Sea-Band Mama's wristbands already in this category — a small plastic stud applies pressure to a point on the inner wrist that some people find eases nausea, a technique also used for travel sickness. The main practical difference is styling: Psi Bands come in a wider range of patterns and colours, and use a fabric strap rather than Sea-Band's more clinical elastic band, which some find more comfortable for all-day wear.
Since both products use the same underlying mechanism, effectiveness should be broadly comparable — NHS guidance notes acupressure bands are a reasonable drug-free option to try, without claiming strong evidence either way. The choice between this and Sea-Band mostly comes down to comfort and appearance preference rather than a meaningful difference in how they work.
