Just a heads up really. There are many reports from GAF and other places that Sea-bands have reduced and even removed the feeling of nausia while using PSVR:


QuoteSea-Band - acupressure in action


Sea-Bands harness the natural effect of acupressure and continue to provide effective relief today, by applying continuous pressure on the P6 (or Nei-Kuan) point on each wrist using a plastic stud.

A recent study in Italy found that morning sickness was reduced in 70% of women who used Sea-Bands and one study conducted by an American midwife showed that women wearing Sea-Bands also reported less anxiety, depression and hostility.

Sea-bands are mostly just placebo.

I'd recommend standard motion sickness pills if it's taking awhile to adjust to VR.

I'd let a real Dr. like Pezus debate the science, but that study comes across like an ad for the product which is a huge red flag.

Regardless I'm just saying dramamine or similar should have stronger effects on decreasing motion sickness.

You would really advise taking drugs rather than using something that has worked regardless of whether it's placebo or not? I swear, this worlds going crazy.

I'm recomending a specific drug that isn't going to cause harm. Not like I'm telling anyone to start meth haha.

If there's a more natural alternative then you use that. Come on now!

Only thing that gave me some discomfort was scavengers odyssey in PSVR worlds.  It just did not feel good at all. Not too mention the graphics are piss poor given Batman Arkham VR and London Heist looks pretty good.

Lol get this word out of here

Can't read the whole article but "convenience sample" is never a good sign. I don't think this has been tested enough so I'd never recommend it personally but at least it's noninvasive so it won't do you harm (except for making a dent in your wallet)

The doctor has spoken!

I should say that I haven't checked if there are more/better studies of it. Maybe GribbleGrunger has some
