Sailing should be a pleasant and relaxing experience, not a source of stress due to seasickness. If you suffer from motion sickness, you know how much it can spoil a day on the water. Fortunately, there are simple and non-invasive solutions to combat this problem, such as the anti-nausea wristbands available from Nautica Basile.

These wristbands are based on the principle of acupressure, stimulating the P6 (Neiguan) point, a specific location on the wrist. The constant pressure exerted by the band on this point helps to significantly reduce nausea and vomiting associated with the rolling motion typical of sailing.

One of the main advantages of anti-nausea wristbands is the absence of unwanted side effects, unlike traditional medications. They do not cause drowsiness, dry mouth, or other discomforts that could impair your ability to enjoy sailing. This makes them an ideal choice for those who need to remain alert and active while sailing, such as the skipper, crew members, or simply those who want to fully enjoy their day at sea.

Nautica Basile's anti-nausea wristbands are made from high-quality materials, resistant to saltwater and comfortable to wear for extended periods. They are available in different sizes to perfectly fit the wrists of adults and children, ensuring effective stimulation of the P6 point.

The Officina Basile's Advice

• Correct Positioning: Ensure the wristband is positioned correctly on your wrist, with the button exerting a firm but comfortable pressure on the P6 point.


• Preventative Use: To maximize effectiveness, wear the anti-nausea wristbands before setting sail, ideally 30-60 minutes beforehand, to prevent the onset of symptoms.


• Suitable for Everyone: Anti-nausea wristbands are suitable for both adults and children, but be sure to choose the correct size for an optimal fit.


• Easy to Clean: Our wristbands are washable and reusable, ensuring optimal hygiene and long-lasting use.

While anti-nausea wristbands are a valuable aid in combating seasickness and travel sickness, it is important to remember that their effectiveness can vary from person to person. If symptoms persist despite using the wristbands, consult a doctor to evaluate other therapeutic options. In addition, proper ventilation of the cabin, avoiding staring at moving objects, and maintaining a light diet can help reduce the symptoms of motion sickness.
