Wearing My Queasy Beads During the Holidays

It's been a hectic holiday week!  I'm finding I've been wearing a pair of Queasy Beads every day just to help calm my stomach from all the excitement!  (Not to mention they've been a lifesaver when I've had too many Christmas cookies or holiday snacks).  Looking forward to designing a new pair to wear on New Year's Eve! :)

How do Queasy Beads work?

Many people are wondering....How do Queasy Beads work?   So, I thought I would share...

Queasy Beads bracelets are designed to work by using acupressure.  

http://www.livestrong.com defines acupressure as a "technique in traditional Chinese medicine that focuses on relieving pain, tension and providing relief of other symptoms through strategic pressure placed on different points on the body.  Acupressure uses theories and practices similar to those used in acupuncture, but acupressure does not involve needles."

When you wear Queasy Beads, the large bead on both bracelets applies light pressure to the P-6 acupressure point on our inner wrists.  This is the point that, when stimulated, sends signals to your brain to ease your nausea symptoms.

Photos I wanted to add here won't upload right now :(  but I do explain it in more detail on my website at http://www.queasybeads.com - just click on "What are Queasy Beads?"

There are other acupressure wristbands out there, but the beauty of Queasy Beads bracelets is that they not only help with nausea/queasy symptoms, they are fashionable accessories, too!
