Use Case

Seasickness Relief

Same vestibular mechanism that helps with car sickness — may help on boats too.

Same vestibular mechanism — may help based on research

The Science

Seasickness is caused by the same vestibular mismatch as car sickness — your inner ear detects the boat's rocking motion while your eyes may see a stable cabin interior.

Stillwave's 100 Hz sound activates the otoconia in your inner ear, the same mechanism validated in the Nagoya University study. While the study tested land-based motion (vehicles and swings), the underlying vestibular mechanism is the same for sea-based motion.

Note: Stillwave has not been specifically tested on boats. We recommend it as a complementary approach alongside other seasickness precautions.

Tips for Best Results

  • 1.Play Stillwave before boarding — prevention is more effective than treatment
  • 2.Stay on deck and look at the horizon when possible
  • 3.Choose a cabin near the center of the ship where rocking is minimal
  • 4.For multi-day cruises, consult your doctor about additional options like scopolamine patches

Frequently Asked Questions

Has Stillwave been tested for seasickness?

Not specifically. The Nagoya University study tested 100 Hz sound for motion sickness from vehicle and swing motion. However, seasickness uses the same vestibular system, so the mechanism may help. We recommend trying it on a short boat trip first.

Is Stillwave enough for a cruise?

For mild seasickness, it may help. For severe seasickness or multi-day cruises, consider combining Stillwave with other proven methods like scopolamine patches (prescription) or being on deck.

Should I use Stillwave before or during the boat ride?

Before boarding is best. The study showed pre-exposure is more effective than using it after symptoms start.
