The one point that carries the whole routine
It is called Neiguan, written PC-6 or P6 in most English sources. It sits on the inner wrist, and it is the point most travelers have already seen on those wristbands — except here you press it with your own thumb, in a rhythm, instead of wearing a band.
The three cards: car, plane, new time zone
The full plan is built as three cards you can run from memory. Each one takes the same wrist point and pairs it with what that situation actually does to you.
For the windy stretch of the drive
PC-6 on each wrist, eyes on the horizon rather than the phone, and a slow breath count while you press. Front seat if you can take it, and driver rotation planned before the road gets twisty. Ginger candy in the cupholder is the traditional companion — a food, not a medicine.
For takeoff, landing, and the hours between
PC-6 on takeoff and landing, ankle pumps and a calf release every hour on long flights, and the swallow-yawn timing for ear pressure. For the red-eye attempt: the wrist point that also settles the mind, an eye mask, and the sole-of-foot point.
For day one in a new time zone
The one rule that does the most work: anchor your first meal and first walk to local time, not your sleep. Then the morning wake-up points, the short midday reset, and the bedtime wind-down from the sleep routine. No melatonin section — we keep it food and hands.
What this can and cannot do
| Approach | What it is |
|---|---|
| Acupressure (PC-6) | A traditional self-care habit some people find settling on queasy stretches. Studies on motion sickness and P6 are mixed — it is a comfort routine, not a treatment. |
| Wristbands | The same point, worn instead of pressed. If bands have not helped you, the routine is not a stronger version of the same claim. |
| Motion sickness medication | Clinically proven for many people and dosed by a pharmacist. Not something this plan replaces or advises on. |
If motion sickness actually makes you vomit, if it lasts more than 24 hours, or if travel makes you dizzy in ways cars never used to — that is a doctor question, not a pressure point question.
This page is the index. The cards are what cost money.
The wrist point and the three cards are free to read and always will be. What costs money is the printed plan: each card fully written out, the packing checklist, and the honest page about when to stop pressing and call a doctor.
