Nausea can be successfully treated with acupuncture and herbs. I think we can help you with preventing nausea when you are flying, but I would suggest a consultation to find out more information.

There are medications you can take, and bracelets that hit the anti nausea point on the wrist. I believe there are also patches you can get to help prevent nausea while on a boat or plane.

Yes! Nausea can be prevented during flight. Most patients do well with a prescription Zofran or a nausea patch placed behind the ear called a scopolamine patch.

There are potentially several things that might work:

1. Over the counter anti-nausea pills like Dramamine can help if the nausea isn't too severe. Dramamine can cause drowsiness, so keep that in mind.

2. Prescription anti-nausea like meclizine or scopolamine can also be effective. Some of these medications also have a tendency to cause drowsiness.

3. Acupuncture has a pretty good track record managing nausea. You'd want to try to get a treatment immediately before flying which is sometimes impractical.

4. Most pharmacies in the US sell a product called "Sea Bands". These go on the wrists and look like the old 70s-80s sweat bands. They have a small plastic protrusion on the inside that places pressure on a wrist point often used in acupuncture for the treatment of nausea. For some folks this is enough to get them through their trip.
