I feel less stressed already :)
Very very helpful
Excellent programme and customer service - give it a try
So grateful that this program exists !!
I really value good customer support, and in that regard - Nerva have been outstanding. Super helpful!
My app keeps crashing. Need help thanks
Although I’m mad at how expensive this app. It works and it did help me. Worth a shot if you can afford it.
This app has really helped me improve health. It is a game changer for sure and worth every penny!
There is no cure for this condition but this has been one of the most effective approaches I have tried.
Love this app! Already experiencing benefits.

Just starting on week 3 of listening and am already starting to feel better. Have had 4 days in a row without any real pain or issues except for the odd day here and there where I’ve had a bit of a flair up. Bowel motions are back to normal even with the flair ups tho a little more frequent. Hopefully by week six I’ll be feeling even better and have longer stints between flairs. I seriously would recommend this app to anyone who is suffering from ibs. It’s easy to listen to the sessions and only takes 15 minutes a day off your time. I do it as soon as i walk in the door from work as my down time before joining the family and find I’m much calmer and happier. I started to feel the results by week 2 so here’s to getting better and better. Update: Well I’ve finished the 6 weeks and am on the maintenance program now and have to say I’m sitting at 95-100% better. Sure i still get the odd day where i have a very mild flair but on the whole I’m pretty well cured if you can call IBS ever cured. I still listen every day when i get home as it’s now part of my wind down routine and i look forward to it for the relaxation aspect as well as the breathing exercises. One thing that could make this awesome app even better would be to include some hypnotherapy tracks in the maintenance section geared towards anxiety and stress as this can also be a big driver for IBS. I’ve downloaded mindset to listen to but 100% much prefer the female voice in Nerva and find she fully relaxes me and i enter a hypnotic state really quickly. Please please please add this into the maintenance section to make this the single best app available.
Clear and well explained
Loved this daily routine. Helped me so much.
I have only had 4 days of this but already significantly helped with gut relaxing & anxiety
A little expensive since, which is why I have had to cancel. But; it worked while I could afford it.
Helps me with my IBS and stress a great deal.

I was highly skeptical of hypnotherapy but after doing some research and discussing this program with my doctor, decided to give it a go. The results were nothing short of astounding. After only a few sessions, Nerva kick-started my sluggish digestion into gear and “got things moving”, resulting in an immediate weight loss of about 5 lbs. I had more energy during the day (most likely because my body was eliminating waste more effectively than it had in years) and I felt more comfortable in both my clothes and my skin. During the 6 weeks of daily Nerva sessions, I also slept better. I typically completed my daily sessions in the early evening. While I would often fall asleep during the latter half due to being in a deeply relaxed state, I would awaken refreshed, be able to tackle my nightly to-do list, and also found myself better able to fall asleep again later and stay asleep for the entire night. Having tried the low FODMAP diet in the past, I can honestly say that Nerva is much more effective, time efficient, and stress relieving. I found the low FODMAP diet to be stress inducing due to the need to read labels, consider portions, and eliminate many foods that I previously enjoyed. This diet caused me a lot of social anxiety as well since most social events are centered around food. I now know that my IBS is clearly linked to my brain-gut connection and not necessarily high FODMAP foods. My gut is a lot happier now that I am able to eat a highly varied diet and Nerva has helped me re-program the signals my gut receives when under stress. Bottom line: I highly recommend this program. My sincere thanks to Dr. Simone Peters and her team for putting together this incredible resource! Thank you, thank you, thank you!! The change you are effecting in people’s lives is far-reaching and it is REAL!
I feel better in just 3 days! More relax and in control of IBS
It is easy to access and put into my routine. Not sure if it’s had an impact yet, as it’s only the fourth day.
Im a new person
The hypnosis sessions are helpful and the readings interesting.
It’s the most relaxing part of my day and had truly helped with my IBS symptoms and anxiety!
Nerva is great!! Very relaxing, helpful visualization. Gives me hope for having a healthy body. I like the readings
Thank you for this opportunity. Already I can feel seven years of gastric challenges positively changing.
