Chemo and seasickness accupressure band

HI everybody,i I  live in France & at  this moment am having my 4th chimio treatment which are at fortnightly intervals,

I am wearing a frozen helmet & gloves (temporarily  removed whilst I type this) & for information I am wearing a seasickness acupressure band on each wrist, they were bought on brittany ferries several years ago, but I  am convinced they have helped me , as I  have not suffered any nausea  or sickness after my 3 previous treatments. I  hope someone else can benefit from this, I would like to know!

This current treatment ends in 3 minutes, so I'll bid you all farewell for the moment. Bon continuation!
