Cocculus has traditionally been used for symptoms related to sea sickness, travel sickness and jet lag. It can provide symptomatic relief when a person is dizzy and exhausted by worry and lack of sleep, nursing loved ones and getting up to sleepless children. This remedy resonates with symptoms that come on from a combination of physical and emotional stress, especially following loss of sleep or the stress of looking after loved ones. All ailments are worse with moving surroundings such as riding in a car, plane, train or boats. A characteristic symptom for this remedy is a sensation of hollowness or emptiness in the head or other parts with a sense of lightness in the body.
