All motion sickness, such as you describe and including car sickness and sea sickness is caused by looking at things that are too close to your eyes, such as reading or looking at your hands. In the last two, concentrate and look as far away as possible into the distance and concentrate on something that is on the horizon. On an airplane, if you have a window seat, look down and try to make out the different things on the ground. Don't read but look as far up the plane as you can. You will notice the difference.............

Alternative treatments for motion sickness have become widely accepted as a standard means of care. They include herbal therapy, acupressure, and homeopathy. Ginger (Zingiber officinale) in its various forms is often used to calm the stomach, and it is now known that the oils it contains (gingerols and shogaols) appear to relax the intestinal tract in addition to mildly depressing the central nervous system. Some of the most effective forms of ginger include the powdered, encapsulated form; ginger tea prepared from sliced ginger root; or candied pieces. All forms of ginger should be taken on an empty stomach when treating motion sickness. There are several homeopathic remedies that work specifically for motion sickness. They include Cocculus, Petroleum, Ipecacuanha, and Tabacum.

I am an alternative medicinal therapist and the best thing for this is either Crystallized ginger or ginger capsules, you get these from any health store
