One-Minute Sound Therapy Shows Promise for Motion Sickness Relief
2025-04-19
Researchers at Nagoya University have discovered that a unique sound stimulation technology, called 'sound spice®', can significantly alleviate motion sickness symptoms in just one minute. The 100Hz sound stimulates the inner ear, activating the vestibular system and improving balance while reducing nausea and dizziness. Tests using driving simulators and other motion-inducing methods, combined with postural control, ECG readings, and questionnaires, showed the therapy to be both safe and effective. This simple, non-invasive treatment holds promise for relieving motion sickness in various travel situations.
