Use Case

Car Travel & Motion Comfort

A 60-second 100 Hz sound session before you hit the road.

100 Hz sound — a calm 60-second listening session for travel

The Science

Car sickness occurs when your inner ear senses movement but your eyes see a stationary interior. This sensory mismatch can trigger nausea, dizziness, and cold sweats.

Stillwave plays a fixed 100 Hz pure tone for 60 seconds through earbuds. The tone reaches the inner ear, where the otoconia — tiny calcium carbonate crystals involved in balance and motion sensing — are located. It is a lifestyle/wellness listening session, not a medical treatment.

Play it before getting in the car. The countdown timer tells you when to listen again — up to every 2 hours.

Tips for Best Results

  • 1.Use noise-cancelling earbuds for best results — they block engine noise that can interfere with the 100 Hz tone
  • 2.Play Stillwave before getting in the car, not after symptoms start
  • 3.Sit in the front seat and look at the horizon when possible
  • 4.For trips over 2 hours, replay Stillwave during a rest stop

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I play Stillwave for car travel?

Play it before you start driving — while still parked. The session lasts 60 seconds, and the app's timer shows when you may want to listen again on longer trips.

Should I play Stillwave before or during the drive?

Before is best. Play it while parked, then start driving.

Does it work for the driver or just passengers?

Drivers rarely get motion sick because they anticipate vehicle movements. Stillwave is designed for passengers who experience car sickness.
