General Comments
The Qu-Chi Hayfever Acupressure Band Didn't work - like all the other alternatives I've tried (including over-the-counter homeopathy pills, a consultation with a homeopath, acupuncture + Chinese herbs, a Japanese form of acupuncture called toyo hari, a gadget you stick up your nose, the bark of an African tree . . . ),
In fact I'm extremely dubious as to whether the three ecstatic reviews above this which all give 10 out of 10 were actually written by users. rather than by the company itself..
In my long experience, antihistamines seem to work to some degree, and nothing else has - for me at least. Steroid nose sprays probably also work, but I'm not keen on the idea of these.
'
Spending £10 or so won't break the bank, but I'd like to see the so-called clinical trials evidence' that this thing has any real efficacy.
