Nerva: IBS & Gut Hypnotherapy

Buyer Beware. You have to cancel both the Apple and subscription in the app after trial period.

The sessions get very repetitive after the first few weeks. I especially hate the “5 things you can see, hear, smell” one that lasts forever and makes you do it like 5 times. I don’t get why I need to pay $200 for a year for an app when the program doesn’t even last that long. Curable is better.

I never write reviews but I feel compelled to because it has radically changed my life. After 5 weeks of use this app and method has virtually eliminated my suffering. I started having gut issues when I was perimenopausal. I tried eliminating foods and beverages but that did not work. I noticed most of my gut issues occurred when I was anxious a symptom that also started occurring during perimenopause. Listening to this app has relaxed me, taught me methods to use to deal when I start feeling anxious or gut pain and also somehow unconsciously improved my symptoms. I was a skeptic but am now a believer!

I have IBS-C. I’ve been doing Nerva for the past 9 months and it has truly changed my quality of life. I am taking a medication in conjunction with the app, but any time I skimp on my Nerva sessions, the medication has a hard doing its job. The brain-gut connection can’t be ignored. When I’m regularly doing my Nerva sessions, I find I have far less abdominal/stomach pain, bloating, gas, and nausea. My mind also feels clearer and my anxiety is significantly lessened. I can’t rate this app highly enough!

I purchased through Apple and wasn’t given an option for the more affordable 3-month subscription and customer support was passive aggressive and not helpful. All these apps that purchase through Apple have a wall to remove all responsibility and accountability. And now I lost $211 in an app that doesn’t take responsibility or ownership for their actions. As a business owner this is absolutely disappointing. And the truth is, they don’t care. It’s all about money and greed.

Stress is the underlying cause of much IBS, so The Happier app has far better meditations, far less expensive. This isn’t hypnotherapy; this is merely meditation, but the voice over artist they hired is truly awful, the meditations are terrible, it’s hard to get worse.

The app itself is well designed and intuitive to use. I’m fairly experienced in mindfulness techniques and there hasn’t been anything I’ve come across before Nerva that I actually look forward to every day. I noticed a reduction in symptoms after about a week, and sometimes just immediately following a session. This program is so much easier to follow than the low fodmap diet that it’s surely worth a try!

Hypnotherapy was recommended to my teen by multiple GI doctors based on their belief she has a Vagus Nerve issue. She does not have IBS. The language in the hypnotherapy is more for IBS. It made my teen so angry that they implied she would never be fully better that she refused to listen past day 1. Some kids can experience full recovery with a Vagus Nerve reset. I’d recommend an adjustment as the doctors say that the number of kids and teens with this disorder are on the rise and hypnotherapy is a good option. Please tell me if you fix it so we can try again? She NEEDS help. Thank you.

This is my first week using Nerva Hypnosis. I started with doubts, having spent my whole life coping with IBS-D and searching for relief. I am an 84 year old retired trauma Informed mental health counselor. I am also a complex trauma survivor. During this first week I am noticing subtle changes in my conscious awareness of tension in my body and in my outlook on life. I am using breath many times during the day to relieve tension. I am also feeling a fragile sense of hope that I could feel better living with this body for the rest of my life❣️ I have been using NERVA hypnosis and breathing techniques for more than a year now. It has been a very challenging year for me at 85 and 1/2 years of age….many losses including my home and most of my belongings in Hurricane Helene. I use a hypnosis session every morning as my body awakens to tension and bowel activity. I seldom have explosive diarrhea anymore and for the first time in my life that I can remember, I experience regular formed bowel movements. I still have IBS symptoms during the day but am able to reassure myself that they are not a dangerous illness. Then I am able to cope with the symptoms with breathing and go on with my day. Eating is still a challenge as many foods in the USA exacerbate my symptoms. I have been using a plant based nutritional supplement from a company in California called Kate Farms which has helped me maintain my weight and soothes my digestive system. I am so grateful to have Nerva hypnosis sessions always available to help me cope with stress and anxiety in my everyday life. I can imagine using them also to ease my way through the dying process when that occurs for me. Thankyou NERVA❣️

The exercises were perfect, then suddenly and for no reason, they changed the audio. The woman is talking much faster now and the inflections are weird. It went from calming and soothing to rushed and anxiety inducing. Either return the audio to how it was or I want a refund on my subscription.
