Overcoming Motion Sickness with TMD Telehealth Services
Introduction

Our mission is to help you conquer motion sickness and enjoy a smoother journey. This page offers comprehensive information about motion sickness, its causes, and how our telehealth services can assist you in managing this common condition.
Understanding Motion Sickness
Motion sickness, also known as travel sickness, occurs when there is a disconnect between what your eyes perceive and what your inner ear (vestibular system) senses. It commonly manifests as nausea, dizziness, and vomiting and can be triggered by various forms of motion, such as car rides, boat trips, or flights.
Causes of Motion Sickness
Motion sickness can be caused by several factors, including:
- Sensory Conflict: When your eyes perceive movement differently from what your inner ear senses, it can lead to motion sickness.
- Inadequate Ventilation: Poor ventilation in confined spaces, like cars or planes, can exacerbate symptoms.
- Anxiety and Stress: Emotional factors, such as anxiety or stress related to travel, can contribute to motion sickness.
