India, April 11 -- A research team from Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine, led by Takumi Kagawa and Masashi Kato, has discovered that a specialized sound-based technology may offer an effective solution for motion sickness.

"Our study demonstrated that short-term stimulation using a unique sound called 'sound spice' alleviates symptoms of motion sickness, such as nausea and dizziness," Kagawa said.

"The effective sound level falls within the range of everyday environmental noise exposure, suggesting that the sound technology is both effective and safe."

Through studies on both mice and humans, the team identified 100 Hz as the optimal frequency for this sound stimulation. To test its effectiveness, volunteers were exposed to ...
