Conductivity Gel for Original Relief Band?

[BriannaRuth]

I have an original Relief Band (which has always worked great for me) but no longer have any of the conductivity gel that came with it. Does anyone know if there is a "generic" gel that can be used with these? Thanks!

Huh?

Are you on the right board?

Found some on Amazon. Good luck!

Yes, I am on the right board. It's for motion sickness.

Thanks for the Amazon link -- I was just wondering if it was something generic so I wouldn't have to pay that much plus shipping for a tiny tube. I leave in a few days so would have to pay express shipping since it's not on Prime.

You could also ask this on the Transportation Board since it's for motion sickness.

I use sonogram gel for mine. I got it at a medical supply store where my mom rented a wheelchair from.

You can use KY Jelly, the original /plain kind. I used a Relief Band for morning sickness. Very inexpensive and easy to find.

Thanks so much for the recommendations!

Relief bands are the absolute best solution for motion sickness. I would never cruise without mine. I am surprised more people don't know about them, but they are very hard to find (and expensive) these days, so I am kind of glad the general public is not aware of them. I am hoping they come out with the new models soon in case I ever need to replace mine.
When we went on our first Disney cruise during hurricane season when I was 5 months pregnant, the only evening I got sick was when I forgot to turn on the relief band. Needless to say, I never made that mistake again.

Where can I find these relief bands and are they similar to the motion sick bands that put pressure on your arm above the wrist?

They have them on Amazon. Similiar, but a lot pricier. Relief bands use batteries, sort of a shock acupressure thing. Sea bands just have the acupressure system.
