The functional GI care program
Clinicians trained to deliver brain-gut behavioural care in person are scarce. Nerva is a structured six-week programme of daily guided practice, with our care team screening at intake and escalating when needed.
One 15-minute guided brain-gut session a day for six weeks, plus short CBT-based lessons.
General diet and lifestyle guidance, including support for reintroducing foods.
Members check in on validated measures: IBS-SSS, abdominal pain and PHQ-4. Reports reach your team through privacy-compliant reporting.
Our care team screens at intake, reaches out to members who go quiet, and escalates warning signs to a provider.
“Within the evidence reviewed, Nerva presented the strongest overall evidence for improving IBS symptoms.”
