Nerva is the easiest way to self-manage your IBS symptoms at home, without pills or diet change. Developed by experts, Nerva can help you learn to 'fix' the miscommunication between your gut and brain with a 6-week psychology-based program.Nerva uses a proven psychological approach to IBS: gut-directed hypnotherapy. Examined in a study at Monash University (creators of the low FODMAP diet), this approach was found to work just as well as their elimination diet for managing IBS*.
How does it work?
Most people with IBS have visceral hypersensitivity, which means their gut is overly sensitive to certain foods and mood triggers. Nerva can help you learn how to address this miscommunication through audio-based gut-directed hypnotherapy in just a few weeks.

- An evidence-based hypnotherapy program designed by a world-leading expert to help you live well with IBS and learn to manage your symptoms

I had a mix of Nerva, Biofeedback, GI Psychotherapy and Physical Therapy, so no way to know how effective Nerva alone is for me. That said, Nerva was my first and only therapy for three months without any dramatic benefit. Only after adding other therapies for another 6 months did my IBS dramatically improve. Maybe Nerva had some impact, but it's very expensive for "gut-directed hypnotherapy" compared to other options. Cost might be justifiable as a one-time purchase, but not a subscription.

Paid for the app, on week 3. Some people find the voice pleasing, I do not. I asked if there was a way to change it, & there isn't, but it was awesome to get in touch w/ a real person immediately. There's too much repetition with the scenarios themselves- for the cost of the app, there should be different scenes each treatment day. I understand if they repeated during the maintenance phase. I don't recommend this app in it's current state. It seems like a great idea, I hope they improve upon it.

I purchased the 7 day trial plan. While the instructor's voice was appropriate to content, I was appalled that in the 4 times I listened to the coached hypnotherapy, there were repeats of the exact same coaching-- so in 4 coaching sessions, there were only two identical guided scripts. Not worth the money. I was irritated that so little effort was expended by the course creators. I canceled in the middle of the 4th session. Good idea, lackluster, lazy execution.

I liked the idea of this app, and it came highly recommended, but the app's user experience was so frustrating that I was unable to relax during the meditations due to a lack of trust for the app developers. Letting users try meditations without long surveys of ill-fitting questions, and making basic remedial explainers easier to skip, would have made this app less frustrating. But my disappointment with this app led me back to Buddhist meditation, which has helped my gut a lot (and is free!)

I had a really bad ibs flare, the worst I've had. I was really grasping at straws. I found this app and decided to try it. I was so impressed. It literally improved my situation dosing the first session and also opened my eyes to hypnosis. I would strongly recommend it. The only thing is like to see improved is that for the price, I think you should be able to continue using it indefinitely. It should be a purchase and not a rental.

i have found that this is really improving my ibs symptoms and mental health just in the trial period. i like the meditation aspect. i like coaching and "get in touch " options. The only thing im hesitant about is the one time annual enrollment payment... i do wish it was a monthly subscription! overall... i would recommend this app to someone who shares my condition!

I really enjoy this app as after 4 weeks, I've noticed a change with my anxiety and IBS symptoms. I've tried pretty much everything for my chronic IBS and nothing ever really helped as much as Nerva has. The app is easy to use and the voice is nice and calming. Now for some cons. Sometimes the app when I first start my session stops working which can be frustrating. I also wish the maintenance plan was cheaper as I may not be able to continue with Nerva after my first three months.

I've just started this program but so far it seems really great! I do wish that the hypnosis scripts addressed some of the non-gut symptoms of IBS like brain fog and depression, which are two of my strongest symptoms (along with extreme) bloating, though inknow those don't affexrbeceryone with IBS. But otherwise really well put together and organized, and I'm enjoying it, I look forward to my session each day, and I'm someone who struggles with self-motivation!
