Nerva reviews

I’m writing this review 18 months after finishing the Nerva app course. I had experienced IBS symptoms for 20 years before starting using the Nerva app, and had been formally diagnosed as having IBS. While sceptical of the course to start with, I felt that I had not much to lose by trying it. To my surprise, I felt improvements quite quickly, and by the end of the course my symptoms had gone. I have not had a recurrence since, and I believe I am cured of IBS. The combination of hypnotherapy and education is very powerful. Now that I understand at a conscious and *subconscious* level what IBS is, I am well protected against it. Definitely recommended for IBS sufferers, if you’re committed to trying the app and sticking to it daily to get results. Be aware that there is repetition with the hypnotherapy sessions, but that’s a part of how it works.

I tried Nerva back in November 2022, but I had no idea about the gut-brain axis and thought the whole idea was very strange. So I cancelled my plan. Since then I’ve done my own research and investigation and have discovered that I wasted an opportunity to see real change. I reached out to Anne from Nerva to see if they would let me try again for no extra cost, and they said yes! I’m so grateful and excited to try it again and feel the relief I believe is possible!

I never really trusted hypnotherapy before but was recommended this and have been very pleasantly surprised. I hugely recommend using the Nerva app as it targets the gut/brain connection and provides daily educational readings along side the hypnotherapy. For me the biggest help was reducing stress and becoming aware of my personal connection between stress and my tummy. As a busy mum I found the best time to listen to my daily session was first thing in the morning once I’d gone down with the kids and got them settled. I’d then get my morning cuppa feeling good 🙂.

I bought this app reluctantly. It was more than I had ever spent on an app but, after years of struggle and spending thousands of dollars on foods, supplements and doctors, I decided to try it. 

 Before I started, my symptoms were progressing, there was less and less I could eat “safely”, going out to eat with friends often ended with me suffering symptoms for a day or two. My sleep was disrupted frequently. I knew I needed to get my Vagal nerve on line so I could switch my Sympathetic nervous system (STRESS!) off; I had been trying various things for years without success. My life was getting smaller and being uncomfortable was taking up way too much of my time.

So, I bought Nerva.

 After about 2.5 weeks of daily practice, I noticed my symptoms lessening and my sleep improving - both in terms of more deep sleep and more easily going back to sleep if I woke up. That trend has continued.

 Now, well into my 6th week, I am thinking about food much less, I have fewer symptoms, less dramatic symptoms, better ability to cope with “trigger” foods, and am consistently sleeping better.

 I’m more aware of when I am becoming stressed and use the Nerva tools to cope to calm myself down.

 And, FYI, I am completely unrelated to this company — this is just my experience. Nerva has given me back a chunk of my life and I thank them for it.

The Nerva program is a key part of my journey to recover from sever symptoms of IBS-C. The guided hypnotherapy sessions provide a consistent and supportive experience to manage reactions to stress, gain control of my gut in a relaxing and natural way. I highly recommend using the Nerva App.

This app has helped with my Diverticulosis issues and my anxiety. 15 mins a day helps get my day started right. I had a problem with the app this week and Gea and Anne were most helpful. I even learned a few things about my phone. Some people are concerned with the price. However, it’s much cheaper than a trip to the ER!

I had come across Nerva in my own research awhile back but wrote it off, and then my nutritionist suggested I really try it and because I love her, I did. I can honestly say I am glad. It’s hard to describe the feelings and results I get from listening every day, but I can’t deny that I feel them and see them, so much that I am willing to see the program through and I am grateful to have found it. I am also grateful to a lovely woman called Anne who helped me immensely when I was having trouble with billing and was very prompt and kind and understanding, so I appreciate the great customer service on top of everything else.

I had been aware of this app for some time as it’s been advertised to me on social media. I didn’t really buy the whole hypnosis thing, and I thought the price of the subscription was extortionate… which I still stand by to an extent. But, I’m two weeks in and my symptoms have eased so much - even after a few naughty days of too much alcohol/ junk food. I’ve even been able to book a spontaneous holiday. I don’t want to get too excited too soon, but I’ve felt the best I’ve felt in ages and the only change in my lifestyle is this app.

I confess that I had my doubts about hypnotherapy, being helpful, and happily, those doubts or completely eradicated! I completed the six week Nerva program, and I am still using it daily. I began to notice improvement after the first few days. I still have symptoms sometimes, but my anxiety about the symptoms has definitely decreased, my appetite is much better, and I just feel calmer in general. I will continue to use Nerva and highly recommend it to anyone dealing with anxiety about gut issues! Customer service is outstanding! They truly care about their clients! Anne in Customer Service was kind, supportive, and helpful when I wrote to thank Nerva; employees clearly have passion for and pride in their service!

Sjogrens Syndrome has many symptoms, one of which is damage to the mucus membranes of the body. This causes significant issues with the gut and bowel. Whilst I don’t have a formal diagnosis of IBS (I experience all the symptoms of IBS) I found the Nerva program extremely helpful. I love the hypnotherapy sessions they are fantastic. The daily readings are really informative and provide fantastic tools that you can actually use. The breathing exercises are a fantastic tool you can use anywhere. I made no changes to my routine (I do follow a FODMAP diet) during the 6 weeks other than using the Nerva App and I can definitely feel changes for the better. I will continue on with the maintenance program and see how things continue to improve. I would love to be able to eat some of my favourite foods again one day so I’m keen to continue with NERVA. Thanks Nerva 👍

I absolutely love this app and have had definite improvements over the past six weeks. I wish I could re-subscribe but it is pretty pricey. It would be nice to be able to keep two or three sessions once the subscription ends or offer a less expensive limited subscription for longer term use. Yes, I understand that’s the cost for hypnotherapy sessions but… it *is* an app. We’re not meeting in person or having extended therapy sessions. In any case, I’m unable to like any other hypnotherapy apps because no one else has the same soothing voice.

My dietitian recommended this program as part of my journey to control my gut health. I have completed my first week. I was sceptical about how this would work. However, I find myself looking forward to each morning’s session. I have even gone to the archive to do a second session in my day. I appreciate the readings that explain how the hypnotherapy can connect my feelings about my gut to reducing the stress and anxiety in my brain and vice versa. Thank you for reassuring me when I think I may be doing this incorrectly. It was as though you were reading my mind and reduced my anxiety. I am grateful.

Unfortunately this didn’t work for me because I have bigger issues that require antibiotics or antimicrobials, but their customer service is amazing. They refunded me because I was within the 30 day period. It was worth giving it a shot! Phenomenal service 🙂

I was sceptical at first but after just a few sessions I was feeling more relaxed about my IBS and my gut pains were reducing. This gave me incentive to continue and the rewards have been amazing. Not only for my gut health but also for my ability to cope with daily stresses.

Early days yet but so far it has been easy to fit this into the day, and I find the experience pleasant so it is something I look forward to. Too early for results, so right now I am just focussing on establishing a hypno routine. Bring on the next 5 weeks!

I was diagnosed with IBS and read about this app. So I decided to give it a try. It has been amazing! The articles are very informative and helpful. I love each hypnotherapy sessions and have learned how to control my anxiety and emotions. Thus making my IBS controllable. I highly recommend this if you suffer from IBS

This is a great program to help you take control of your health. Pros Low commitment but big impact. Educate yourself on the mind gut connection Feel a sense of calm with the daily visualizations I’m not sure I’ll jump off the fodmap diet after or ever but I’m hopeful to have less restrictions and less flare ups.

I was having terrible digestive problems for months. Doing the things my homeo pathic doctor suggested we’re really not giving any results. Within a few days of using Nerva my condition improved dramatically. I bought two sessions of the Nerva and now I’m doing great!

I had developed IBS symptoms from a bout of Covid in April 2022. Had been to a dr had various tests all clear. Dr prescribed Buscopan which initially helped. In October Nerva came on my Instagram and it was the best thing I decided to do. I religiously did the sessions every day at similar times. Read all the articles and within a few weeks my symptoms Of stomach cramps bloating obsession to be near a toilet all eased. Was able to have a week in the Sun continuing to do the sessions. Not obsessed about food had the odd alcoholic drink and no affect. I had a zoom call with a Dietician referred by my GP. He was very interested to hear about NERVA and felt you had been able to help more than anything. Had a slight flare up in December reverted by to daily sessions and am delighted to say my symptoms and esp the anxiety I had suffered during the last few years of Covid calmed down and now am feeling very calm and reassured. Have listened to one of the new programmes in the kitchen and will listen to the other new ones. Am pleased to be renewing by membership for another 3 months. Many thanks to Gea for reaching out to me she has been very helpful. Many many thanks. Regards. Ailsa.

This program is so worth trying. It took four and a half weeks and then was like a miracle. My bowels are working normally for the first time in my life! Even better I am back to eating most of the foods I have considered trigger foods. Things I thought I would never eat again. Even though it’s close to $30 per month after taxes, I figure I am saving at least that much by not having to buy specialty food anymore (gluten free, white sugar free, etc etc etc). I am saving time by not analyzing every ingredient in products I buy. The trial will tell you if you can tolerate doing it, but for me it didn’t work until more time went by. Best of luck in your personal journey.
