      Apply Sea Bands at the appropriate time. Sea bands usually take approximately five minutes to begin taking effect. If you begin to feel nausea coming along apply the sea bands immediately. Although, it's best to prevent morning sickness before it occurs. If you become nauseous relatively around the same time every day, consider applying them accordingly.

      Measure out the correct position for your Sea Bands. It's important that the sea bands are placed in the appropriate position around your wrist to ensure your pressure points are hit. Using your free hand place your three middle fingers against your inner wrist. Your ring finger should just be touching the line that separates your hand and arm. Directly below your pointer finger is where your Nei Kuan pressure point is located. This is where you will need to place the plastic stud to begin applying pressure.
