seasickness and the inner ear
saw an article in the newest (print) version of 'scientific
american'...there's active research underway regarding an alternative theory of why people get seasick the conventional explanation has to do with a disparity between what the inner ear senses and what the eye sees. however, there is a growing body of evidence from psychologists showing that the movement of the body is responsible for seasickness, and that by standing with your feet about 1.5 feet apart you can significantly reduce seasickness by increasing the body's stability. |
