I was skeptical but willing
I was skeptical but willing. After 2 sessions I started noticing a shift in how i was feeling. By the end of the 6 weeks the shift was real and I have been consistently using the tools.

early success either multiple benefits
I had a very early success with the program after about one week. In addition to helping my IBS-D I used it to help fall back to sleep at night when I had difficulty. Towards the last to weeks of the program my symptoms returned, but I was also under more stress due return of another health issue. After a couple of bad weeks I have started to regain control again using the program.

Hi there,
Thanks for sharing your experience. It’s encouraging to hear the program helped you early on with IBS-D and sleep. We understand things can vary when stress levels change, and we’re glad you’re starting to feel more in control again.

Helpful, but like many apps, emphasises its business model
It's a helpful app, though it's pricing is at the high end for what it offers (essentially, a year's subscription for a 6-week program that you can then repeat), and the "business model" intrudes a little bit (e.g. constant nudging to hand over your GP's details, and tell them about Nerva).

Hi there,
Thanks for your feedback. We’re glad you find the app helpful. We hear your concerns about pricing and the prompts around GP details. We’re sorry this felt intrusive; those prompts are optional and part of our effort to support safer, more personalised care.
We really appreciate you taking the time to share this, and we’ll pass it on to the team.

Try it !
I expected little after years of different treatments but the app helped significantly. It is not a wonder weapon to solve it all but overall the most significant improvement I have seen. Would definitely recommend.

I’m not one for meditation, but I was ready to try anything. Honestly, using the Nerva app in conjunction with the low FODMAP diet made an incredible difference to my IBS symptoms. I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Not having done any relaxation and breathing techniques for such a long time, I really enjoyed the sessions. One day a few weeks ago, instead of slowly starting to move again on the count to five I went to sleep and didn’t wake up until my husband returned home.

I would like the actual program to be…longer and use a real human to record the sesdions
I would like the actual program to be longer. I would prefer a real voice to an AI voice, as people actually know what it is like to experience pain or other aspects of the human experience. However, I have found the program helpful even though I have not gotten completely free of symptoms. It took a long time to develop these issues and six weeks is not enough to fix them. I do appreciate the access to the previous sessions.

The whole Nerva hypnotherapy 6-week…
The whole Nerva hypnotherapy 6-week block was very relaxing, enjoyable and restful. I enjoyed each daily 15 minute session mid morning and found each daily theme, such as Sunny Day, Floating or The Orchestra, refreshing and calming. The softly spoken voice allowed me to drift and almost imagine that I was floating like a cloud at times. I would recommend this type of health approach if you have digestive tract problems.

My reflections
I have done meditation before and had forgotten how effective it is. I am also a highly suggestive person and thus the hypnotherapy suggestions were very good for me. If I had a flare up, I could take my mind back to one of the sessions - together with some of the breathing techniques - to calm myself.

The Nerva app really works!
Doing the hypnotherapy through the Nerva app was easy to do, easy to follow too.
I believe regular sessions really helped the visceral sensitivity in my gut, relaxed me and improved regularity going to the toilet, stopped bloating and cramping.
I’m able to eat different foods now that previously had caused issues in my gut.

Hi Heidi,
Hearing that you are now able to enjoy foods that previously caused issues, along with improvements in bloating, cramping, and regularity, is really wonderful for us.Consistency with the sessions can make a real difference, and we are so happy the program felt easy to follow and fit into your routine. Here’s to more comfortable days ahead!

The hypnotherapy sessions are the best
The hypnotherapy sessions are the best. I actually fell asleep listening to them. I don't have IBS, which this program is geared to. I have GERD and some of the sessions seem to be relevant, like the deep breathing. I may be interested in hearing more about your upcoming sessions for chronic pain. I have osteoarthritis and your program might be beneficial.

Hi there,
So happy to hear you have been enjoying the hypnotherapy sessions and finding them deeply relaxing. While Nerva is designed for IBS, it is wonderful that some of the techniques have also felt supportive for your GERD symptoms.
We also appreciate your interest in chronic pain content. You may be interested in exploring our other program, Relio, which is designed to support people managing back pain.
Wishing you continued relief ahead!

Very unique and helpful app for IBS. I've tried MANY treatments and this one really stood out as one of the most helpful. I was skeptical about hypnotherapy but now understand how it works and that it's scientifically-backed.
