Participants will be randomized to one of three study arms: Arm 1: control; Arm 2: Expectancy-neutral handout + Expectancy-neutral MP3+ acupressure bands; Arm 3: Expectancy-enhancing handout + Expectancy-enhancing MP3 + acupressure bands. Hypothesis: Acupressure bands provided with the relaxation MP3 will be effective in controlling chemotherapy-induced nausea

Severity of nausea is assessed on a 7-point rating scale, anchored at one end by 1 = "Not at all nauseated" and at the other end by 7 = "Extremely nauseated." The outcome variable for the primary analysis was greates
