Nerva reviews

It’s slowly helping with easing anxiety and I'm becoming a calmer me despite the flare ups. The brain/gut receptors are still not triggering properly though. I like the APP in general thus I’ll continue with biofeedback. Attempting to slowly reduce the use of my daily prescribed Motegrity.

This app has literally changed my life. I don’t think I realized how bad my stomach was until I used this app and got relief!!! Only downside is that you definitely have to keep using it consistently, and you can’t fall asleep during it. After I completed the program and was in maintenance phase, I was listening to it right before bed and falling asleep pretty much every time and had a really bad flare up.. but after using the app again without falling asleep for about three weeks I felt way better!

I started Day 1, read the material and listened but stopped listening to the first 15 min meditation about 10s early. When I opened it the next day, it returned me to Day 1. I forwarded the circular timer to the end and it says “congrats, you’ve completed Day 1, come back tomorrow”. I’d prefer the app to allow me an option to start the next day if it is not the same day I started. Else don’t forget to ff the timer to the end! I can’t comment on the app effectiveness.

I believe I am the one who can free myself . I am afraid . I see I have been so severely depressed and ANXIOUS. I am getting more comfortable in the bathroom. It was a torture. room for so long . I am getting comfortable sitting on the toilet and sometimes I am starting to relax. It is not so much doing I think as relaxing and allowing. It doesn’t happen overnight and that’s ok . My pain is significantly better more days.

Good so far re: relaxation, but I don’t know enough about hypnotherapy to know if my subconscious is being affected. After going through 3+ months of significant stress due to the illness and death of my mother, I’m finding it harder to relax into the sessions. I’m twitchy. Still, some sessions are better than others. I’ll definitely keep going

I really don’t care whether I am experiencing the placebo effect - I’ll take it. Day 4 and first timer to hypnotherapy. I have had a 23 year career in mental health and family therapy so I am well across progressive muscle relaxation techniques and can drop in quickly. However, I wasn’t certain. Fads in clinical treatments have come and gone over the last two decades. I started Day 1 in significant IBS-D distress but today I am feeling comfortable with a reduction in symptoms. I am feeling optimistic and will give Nerva my best shot.

The IBS Nerva App, is amazing. I was inspired to use it by seeing how it changed my son’s life. I found the daily six week program easy to commit to, as positive results happened very quickly. I loved the clarity of the daily research based information, that gave insight and understanding to the impact of the vagus nerve and sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, in relationship to connection with mind and gut and anxiety. Plus ways of coping with Anxiety. It would have been helpful to be able to download this information, for future reference. Every hypnotherapy session left me feeling calm and positive. A great start to the day and a tool I could return to as required. I completed the course with a 63% improvement and am now repeating the hypnotherapy sessions offered. I am disappointed the information segment is not available. The personalised professional prompt response from the Nerva team to my queries was exceptional. Congratulations and many thanks to the research team and all involved in developing the Nerva App.

I have suffered with IBS for most of my life. The sessions are part guided meditation, and hypnosis, which I now use as a maintenance program to relieve ongoing discomfort in my intestinal tract. I also use them at night when I need to calm my nerves/stomach and get to sleep. I don’t see myself not using this program. I gave it four stars only because the sessions can often repeat, and I do wish there were more variety. Regardless, thank you to the Australian scientists who created this program. I am very grateful!

Was recommended this app by my ND. I tested out the free trial and was unfortunately only able to try it for two days as I was too busy to stay on top of it. I was skeptical about the “hypnotic” aspect, but I honestly think that it did work - I’ve meditated before but never been put in such a different state that I couldn’t recognize! And the stories told were quite soothing and comforting to think about and hold onto when feeling anxious outside of it. Overall a good experience I just wasn’t able to keep up with it to experience the full healing it says it can deliver. Devina and Tia (customer service) was also extremely helpful! Will try again someday.

Overall the app is nice. There are a few annoying features: -When I click the week progress tracker, I expect it to take me back to the day of the week I did if I want to do that recording or reading again. Instead it just has an annoying pop up about habits or something. - The audio recordings are amazing! But I get angry at the end of each one when they say, “I’m going to count to 5,” and then between each number they say a sentence and it takes forever. Also I listen usually when going to sleep, and that always takes me from being relaxed to upset. The UI is overall clean and nice. I feel like it’s a bit overpriced. What about $50 for 3 months and $100/year? Although I imagine this app probably markets to wealthier clients, especially if they can afford nutritionist doctors (nothing against the rich who work hard)

I don’t know yet if it’s really working but I think I’m more relaxed. It makes me feel calmer. I still have symptoms and attacks of diarrhea but I am able to recover a little better. I have SIBO so it’s possible that I won’t get over the stomach problems.

I love the simple layout of the app and the option for reminders— this programs boasts its effect on IBs symptoms with daily readings (~5 min) and daily guided hyponotherapy (~15 min). EVERYTHING IS GREAT EXCEPT— the one week trial period doesn’t come close to showing everyone what the results could be before spending a whopping $150 on a yearly subscription (which is why I rate it 4 instead of 5 stars).

I’ve only been using the program for just under a full week however my gut and IBS issues appear to be less severe. Also, my gut was irritating me a bit this morning (probably stress related) so I sit down for a hypnotherapy session to see if it would improve. Immediately following the session, I felt incredibly calm and my gut honestly felt better and much more manageable. Looking forward to permanent improvements over the coming weeks and months.

Your onboarding flow needs a bit of work - i don’t have a mind gut clinic and I got looped several times through the flow to choose one. I eventually made up an entry so that I could complete the process. Same with entering info about my GP. I got the same prompt. Time for a bug bashing session!
