There are few things worse about travelling, whether in a car, boat, or ‘plane, is motion sickness. This is the one thing that can turn a good time into “get me out of here!” faster than you can say, Indiana Jones.
Motion sickness happens when the movement your eyes see is different from the movement your inner ear senses. Your brain receives signals from the parts of your body that senses movement. When they send conflicting signals, your brain gets confused and doesn’t know whether you’re moving or stationary. This difficulty in your brain to make sense of the information is what causes us to feel ill.
If you’re prone to this unfortunate ailment, the sooner you take action, the easier it is to ease the symptoms before they reach intolerable levels. So without further ado, some quick tips to remedy that nasty nausea:
Any type of transportation can cause motion sickness, but generally, your body and brain become used to being in motion the more you travel. In the meantime, if you’re a sufferer, there are over-the-counter medicines to help you get through the journey. But car sickness is not life-threatening and it might be better to train your body to overcome it naturally.
Your car, however, should never be sick, especially not when going on long road trips. Find your nearest Supa Quick and pop in for a free vehicle safety check. This way, you’ll be well-prepared for that long-awaited holiday.
