The Science Behind The Nomo Nausea Band

The NoMo bands unify three holistic medical modalities: complementary & alternative medicine, distraction technology, and soothing cool peppermint scent into one easy to use waterproof & latex-free elastic wristband.

The NoMo band is a safe, effective, fast acting, and non-drowsy way to help patients of many ailments: morning sickness, motion sickness, sea sickness, post-operative nausea & vomiting (PONV), chemotherapy, headaches, migraines, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), gastrointestinal irritation, exercise induced and stress induced nausea, and more.

After winning surgical product of the year in 2015, NoMo has paired up with the best medical research facilities and has provided us with trusted data about NoMo Bands. From obstetrics hospitals, national pediatric centers, endoscopy centers, to neurology migraine researchers, our bands are sweeping the medical community and changing the way medicine is practiced for the better.

Exhibit 1: Post Operative Nausea & Vomiting (PONV) & Migraines

Conclusion: The NoMo Nausea band when properly placed reduced nausea by 50% and vomiting by 88.8% following endoscopic procedures. Soothing cool peppermint scent infused into a properly placed wristband at the P6 point causes a 50% greater reduction in nausea and vomiting when compared to complementary & alternative medicine alone.

Specifically, postoperative nausea reduction had a reduction of 59.2% vs. 27%, and the reduction in vomiting was three times greater than acupressure alone (90.9% vs. 36.3%).

A notable reduction in headache and migraine scores were also seen (with soothing cool peppermint scent infused scented bracelet, NoMo Migraine).

Exhibit 2: Motion Sickness

Conclusion: In females with a history of motion sickness, P6 complementary & alternative medicine increased tolerance to experimental nauseogenic stimuli, and reduced the total number of symptoms reported. Study results were statistically significant and have shown tremendous success in participants who suffer from motion sickness and dizziness in motorized vehicles (such as cars and boats).

Exhibit 2: Motion Sickness

Exhibit 3: Gastrointestinal

Conclusion: A total of 76% of the patients receiving soothing cool peppermint scent reported changes in the severity of gastrointestinal symptoms compared with 19% receiving placebo. Peppermint relaxes GI muscle by reducing cellular calcium influx in the intestines. Menthol also stimulates bile flow, and reduces the tone in the esophageal sphincter.

Exhibit 4: Morning Sickness

Conclusion: Complementary & alternative medicine bands are a treatment worth trying for the control of morning sickness. About one half of the patients thought the bands were useful, and concluded that complementary & alternative medicine offer relief to many women considering the reasonable possibility of efficacy, low cost, and no drowsiness.
