Nerva uses the most effective psychological approach to IBS relief: gut-directed hypnotherapy. Clinically proven in a study at Monash University (creators of the low FODMAP diet), this approach was found to be just as effective as their gold-standard elimination diet for both food and stress-triggered symptoms.

How does it work?

Gut-directed hypnotherapy can teach your brain how to ignore pain signals from your gut. Less signals, less flare-ups. You also learn powerful techniques that can help you manage flare-ups and take back control from IBS.

With Nerva, it can be possible to:
• Eat the foods you love without worry
• Be free from chronic pain and discomfort
• Go to work and socialize with friends without fear and anxiety
• Feel confident in your own skin with an un-bloated belly
• Travel stress-free while not having to map out toilets or be worried about having an IBS flare-up
• Enjoy a happy sex life without fear of embarrassment

NEED SUPPORT
MA-F1

I purchased this program but my phone died and needed send back. I tried to download it onto my old phone but can’t log in. I can’t find any Tec support. It was helping but I can’t get back to it


Worked great for me!
vetowner

I have had digestive issues all my adult life. If I got stressed, the first reaction was felt in my digestive system. This program helped me disconnect my gut from my brain and relax more. It’s a terrific program.


Some improvement
Msmegin

In week five and I’ve had some improvement. I do enjoy the hypnotherapy session but I could do without the Kiwi accent. Truly awful. Which in turn makes me feel bad about finding it irritating.


Not free
Aims79910

The app isn’t free. You take a survey then are asked to pay $87 for a 3 month subscription.


Disappointed I didn’t get to try it
Pattyjean19

The hypnosis would not play. I submitted a help ticket and was told to uninstall and reinstall and to log out and back in. Neither fixed the issue. I tried my iPad and had the same issue. I was told we don’t usually have this problem, sorry - cancel your subscription so you don’t get charged. I appreciate that but that’s not tech support. I was very excited to try this to relieve my symptoms ? so I’m very disappointed.


What a relief!
pgreene

I have struggled with IBS most of my life, I wish I had found this approach years ago! I felt a marked improvement in the first week! This app is worth its weight in gold. I am shocked and amazed at how well this worked so quickly! Feel like a giant burden has been lifted from my life.


Change voice

Plz change the voice and the tone. Couldn’t get past 3 minutes of it.


Wow... amazing results!
KAanestad

I’ve been suffering with IBS for decades. Stress and anxiety have always been a trigger for me and I really was focusing on my symptoms all day, nervous about eating certain foods, and especially symptomatic traveling because of fear of not having a bathroom if needed. I’m finishing week 6 of the program and I don’t even think about my gut anymore! I have symptoms here and there but they really don’t bother me. Nothing short of amazing!!!


Conversion funnel scam
Sirakos82

Monetising people’s pain - a disgrace. The App pretends it’s gonna help you, makes you fill out a lengthy form and then hits you with a pay wall before offering any functionality or help. The creator “doctors” should be ashamed of themselves.


CAUTION!!!!
When the Heart Waits

With this app, there is the very real danger of eliciting or evoking acute and distressing mental health dissonance. As a pharmacist for 8 years, and a current student of East Asian Medicine, I would say I am generally quite in tune with my body. I downloaded this app at the recommendation of my primary care physician in an attempt to holistically manage some symptoms of GI discomfort and bloating. I used the app for about three weeks. I slowly began to feel different, but the changes were negative and included insomnia, dizziness, severe anxiety, and a general feeling of unease and over-activity. I called my physician to check in, thinking I was experiencing an acute case of bipolar syndrome (which I have never before had). At my next visit, she recommended stopping all things new because the symptoms were getting worse and I was feeling frantic. I stopped the app that night, and felt IMMEDIATE relief the next day. I was totally exhausted and slept a lot the following week, and felt stability and sanity slowing returning. I write this review not to offend or affront the app or its creators. I am highly supportive of natural methods for controlling disease processes and am so grateful for innovative ideas like Nerva. I write this review as a CAUTION - hypnosis is not necessarily safe and free from harm; like ANY medication there can be side effects. Treatment is ALWAYS about treating the right person, in the right place, at the right time. I would HIGHLY recommend that anyone seriously considering engaging with this app be incredibly mindful and aware of potential negative changes in mental status. Please work closely with a physician and a mental health provider to ensure any side effects can be monitored and any negative psychological changes can be tracked. If you are sensitive or have a history of mental illness, consider going to see a hypnotherapist in person. It would be worth the extra money to have someone guide your mind at the appropriate speed for your own personal integration. NOTE: I did re-attempt using the app after a few months had lapsed under close supervision by my primary care physician. I had immediate adverse reactions within the first day of using Nerva and unfortunately these effects were more pronounced and took longer to resolve than the first time around. The physician who recommended this app to me did reach out to the creators of Nerva. They assured her that the only contraindication for use was active psychosis. While I have certainly struggled with my share of mental health problems, I was in no way in an active state of psychosis when beginning the use of this app. I started Nerva while in a period of baseline normal functioning and the app unquestionably elicited and evoked the onset of an acute mental health crisis.
