Click images to zoom in
As featured in Dr James Le Fanu's column in the Daily Telegraph
Simple, natural, clinically proven relief from hayfever and allergic rhinitis.
The Qu-Chi (Koo-Chee) point on the outer elbow has been used for thousands of years by acupuncturists and in traditional Chinese medicine to treat sinus problems, eye complaints, allergies and skin problems. Now, new clinically-proven Qu-Chi Acupressure Bands offer a simple, discreet, drug-free way to alleviate the runny nose, itchy eyes, sneezing, tiredness, headache and loss of concentration associated with the miseries of hayfever and allergic rhinitis.
The Qu-Chi Acupressure Band can be worn on either arm and is also suitable for children as long as it fits snugly. A big plus is that you can wear the Qu-Chi Acupressure Band in bed to help get a decent night's sleep. Users have also found the Acupressure Band helpful all year round to relieve perennial rhinitis, dust, pet and and other allergies.

What You Say
'I generally find acupuncture amazing and have now tried the Qu-Chi Band to alleviate my hayfever and allergic rhinitis symptoms. I have found this to be of great benefit with the added bonus of helping me to get a brilliant night's sleep.'
Caroline Bryant, Quality Assurance Manager
'As soon as a particular plant is in the hedgerow, I have typical allergy reactions, namely, runny nose, sore eyes, sneezing and a feeling like a tight band around my head. When I put on the Qu-Chi band, my symptoms were alleviated immediately'.
Honor Franks, Retired Schoolmistress
' When I first felt the benefits of wearing the band, it was rather surreal. being around other sufferers and not feeling the dreadful symptoms that I regularly suffered. When it was time to send the band back after the clinical trial, well I didn't want to'.
Jason Palmar, London
'All in all, I would say using the Qu-Chi Band in addition to my antihistamine pills worked well for me. I would highly recommend that other chronic sufferers of hayfever try it.'
Etan Silver, Zurich, Switzerland
' I am really impressed with the Qu-Chi band to relieve my hayfever symptoms. I love that I no longer need to rely on antihistamines and eye drops every summer.When my pharmacist told me about the Qu-Chi band I have to admit that I kind of dismissed it as I am not really into alternative medicine. I would rather take a pill that I know works!! The problem is that the pills were not working, my eyes were still itching, my throat sore, I had headaches all day and started to get nosebleeds (probably due to all the sneezing). So I decided to give the acupressure band a go. My pharmacist showed me how to put it on as it is important to get it on the correct acupuncture point, although there are clear instructions on the packaging with photos. I couldnt believe how fast it worked, and how effective it was! As soon as I put the band on, my eyes stopped itching, about 5 mins later my headache had gone and my nose was clear. It was really strange. So I decided to take the band off and see what would happen. My symptoms came back virtually straight away! I wear mine all day now its a good job they are washable '

'I've had great success with acupressure bands for sea-sickness, so I know these are going to work for my hayfever'
Janet E., London
'I have suffered severe hayfever for many years - causing me to be in bed for days and terrible nose bleeds. I ordered one of your bands and wore it for the first time today. This morning before I put it on I was having sneezing fits and I had a nose bleed - since I put it on - nothing!!! Now I am a bit sniffy but nothing else. I cant tell you what this means - its life changing for me so I thank you for it.'
Miriam Chinnick
'I just wanted to say thank you for the Qu-Chi acupressure armband you sent back with my grandma and grandad. I have had trouble with my sinuses for 5 years now. I have seen Dr's at the hospital, I have had allergy tests, lots of steroid nose sprays and even had to flush my sinuses out 3 times a day but nothing has worked. I wore the armband for 1 day and noticed a big difference. I wear it all the time now.'
T Garnett age 15
'I just wanted to let you know that the arm band really does work, it has made a big difference to him and it was really getting to him. The next step according to the consultant was a 6 month course of antibiotics which we were really opposed to. The band came along at the right time for us as we were running out of options. It really does work.'
Deb Garnett (Mum)
'I have been very pleased with my band, I took it off last week, overnight, then forgot to put it on in the morning, got to the gym and could hardly do anything, I was so tired, then realised why, eventually my eyes started itching, so when I got home I put it back on, and symptoms disappeared, fantastic!!'
Sally Ann, Leeds
'Got one for my mom - love it!!! No more symptoms! This band is total genius :)'
Tamara Moubazbaz, Toronto
'As for your armband - it's remarkable. The week you sent it, the weather went really bad (or is that good for hayfever sufferers?), so I couldn't tell if it worked or not. However, during the heatwave of the last few days, I've actually managed to have windows open for the first time ever, without being too ill.'
Bryan Manley
'Within 15-20 minutes of putting the band on my breathing would improve considerably, rather like the difference between breathing over sandpaper compared with breathing over silk and my bronchial tubes did not feel as tight. The other effects were that it eased the catarrh that i have suffered for years and my eyes not as sore. I'm a very light sleeper, maybe only getting 4-5 hours sleep a night. I would wake up at least twice, sometimes I would wake up choking, with really bad catarrh and a dry mouth, obviously I am breathing through my mouth - and snoring - so I am told! for the past two weeks i decided to wear the band all night, I certainly was not prepared for the results. as usual I have gone to bed at the usual time and have slept soundly until 7 - no walking the house, no toilet visits, no twitchy legs, no choking, no dry mouth! even a thunderstorm didn't wake me. You have no idea how well it has made me feel, even the lines on my face have lessened. thank you.'
Marjorie Burkinshaw, Pontefract
After seeing your request for testers for the child-size Qu-Chi Band I requested one of these for my son who suffers from hayfever and chronic allergic rhinitis, constant stuffed up nose etc. He sleeps fitfully, is a nightmare in the mornings and cannot concentrate for any length of time. It is a critical time for him a the moment as he has gone from being a snotty, bunged up child who has trouble concentrating to a snotty bunged up child who needs to take entrance exams in the autumn so his educational future is very much at stake. We are waiting for some allergy testing to be booked. When the band arrived I dismissed it to be honest but my son spotted it, asked what it was and put it on. Again, being totally honest I said not to bother because it didn't look to be any use but he blasted through his maths homework with a focus I have never seen before, has done the same tonight with another assignment, delights in showing me how easily he can breathe and came into my room this morning with a very uncharacteristic spring in his step saying he had slept well. I am still a little sceptical and slightly in shock at the changes in my son but if it is down to this little band then long may it continue and I think I may order more so that he can never be without it. If the improvement continues we may be looking at a very happy contented boy who will finally reach his potential at school. I can't believe it is true but so far the signs are that this little band is nothing short of a miracle.
Kate Baldry on behalf of Alexander age 10, June 2010
My 5 year old son underwent allergy testing in March, and he was found to be highly allergic to grasses. Last year he really struggled with hayfever, and I have decided to try everything that I can to help him through this summer. We are thrilled with the results of using the band, my son had no trouble wearing it, and it has become an integral part of getting dressed, thankyou!!!
Joy Agno, July 2010
Many thanks for a brilliant product. (Bought for 14 yr old)
D. Rose, July 2010
I admit that I didn't really expect this to work. I always assume that the alternative medicine options only work on people that truly believe in them, like a placebo effect, so I was cynical to say the least. But within half an hour of trying it out, the kids were running up to me to say that their eyes had stopped hurting and their nose wasn't blocked up any more. They're not particularly pretty - if they wear them all through the summer they'll have a strange suntan !! - but that's a small price to pay if they alleviate the symptoms of hayfever. And despite my reservations, I have to admit that that really does seem to be the case.
C. P., France, July 2010
I bought this for my son, Matt. He suffers quite badly with hayfever; especially in his cricket season. 2 months down the line; it is working well; In fact it is working very, very well. Just ordered 2 for his mates to use. I don't believe this will work for everyone, but it is worth a try. Very happy with it.
Mr T J Hewitt, 21 July 2009
To be honest i was pretty skeptical about this product before i tried it. But it really works, and quickly! About 20 people in my office have one now and everyone loves them. I would recommend any hay fever sufferers to try it.
