About 4 years ago while at a boat show in Annapolis, Maryland I happened across a booth where some people were selling an “all natural motion sickness treatment” called MotionEaze. Naturally I almost passed it by because I figured it was a bunch of crap. But when I saw a few of the boat captains buying it up I stopped and talked to one of them about it.
It’s been a while so I can’t quote them directly, but whatever they told me convinced me to give it a try. So I plopped down $15 for a bottle and went on my merry way. A few weeks later on an airplane trip I passed it to a friend that suffers from motion sickness and I’ll be damned if it didn’t take care of the problem immediately!
We are talking about a tiny little bottle of herbal oils that is about the size of my thumb. So it fits quite easily in a backpack, purse or whatever. All you do it rub a single drop of this stuff behind your earlobe on the soft part of your neck where your ear joins it. And that is it!
I don’t know how or why it works, but all you know when you use it is that you can smell a pleasant herbal scent. It works so well that I’ve ordered about 3 more bottles over the years and it just occurred to me that this is one of those tips that I should actually pass along on the old blog.
Hope it helps others as much as it has helped us.

Oh, I live with motion sickness almost daily! I suppose that would turn it into vertigo, maybe. I don’t really know, but, I’ve suffered from motion sickness all my life. I’ll be sure to try this out! We’ve gone on some car rides out here in the hills that liked to kill me! Ugh!
Do give it a try Lisa. I’m not sure if it will work for everyone, but if you are suffering that badly then it’s worth $15 to find out if it works for you!

Try the following tips in tips
for preventing your motion sickness.You will never thought of ginger works for ur motion sickness
Very true. I’m pretty sure they ship internationally so I’d give it a try.
I’m like you also. I never really had problems with motion sickness until the last couple of years. I don’t get it very often, but with the amount of air travel I do sometimes I’ll use this stuff before a flight if I know there is going to be bad weather.
Like you said, motion sickness can really spoil an otherwise great day.

Surely a backpack item for people suffering from motion sickness. But will keep in mind if anybody needs help regarding this any time. :)
Maybe you should search thoroughly the psychological factor. I mean, a pill must go through the digestive process that normally takes about half an hour.
It seems to me that the pill influences the psychology of those that suffer.
I was never vunerabel to motion sickness until about a year ago. It is a horrible thing.
I just hope MotionEaze is available in the UK!
John P – Yes, $15 is definitely worth it to find out if it will help! Putting that on my ‘buy list’ for sure!
John G – I’ll let ya’ll know when I get some and hubby takes me on another one of those endless drives up the mountains on a dirt and rock road that make me wish for quick death! My motion sickness is so stubborn, that there is no way possible that any psychosomatic-wishing (”Oh, I just know this is gonna work!”, she gleefully thought to herself hopefully.) will have any affect whatsoever on the experiment! LOL
As a young girl growing up in North Dallas, I had to take dramamine to ride in the car to DFW airport to pick up my grandmother! That drive can take anywhere from 20-40 minutes! Tops!
I got better as I got older, but, then I went and procreated (what the heck was I thinking?!) ;) and got worse than ever!!
After just getting home from my honeymoon cruise and ending up in the hospital for three days due to vertigo, I’m going to buy some of this and give it a try. I can tell you that suffering from motion sickness is one of the most miserable feelings a person can experience. I’ve suffered from motion sickness all my life and it’s hell. I’d be willing to spend ten times this amount if it really works. I’m going to Six Flags tomorrow with my step son and I’m going to try to find this locally rather than use dramamine or something similar.
