Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation
 

Hello all,

I thought you might be interested in some of the research on Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation. I have been looking at it for a year or so, but am now wondering if it might help with my father's nausea, since I am wondering if it might be related to the vestibular system. The one GVS unit I found was $2,500, but I will see if one of the neuroscience researchers at one of the local universities might be interested in studying the topic.

Here are some interesting research articles on the topic:
