Nerva reviews

I tried everything for my IBS and nothing behind a very restrictive diet made any difference. Nerva has helped immensely with IBS systems and also with reducing anxiety. After the initial program I’m now on the maintenance program and it’s a part of my every week. Love it!

I am on day five in using Nerva. I was introduced to Nerva through Diet vs Disease. I used a meditative tool called MUSE for about three years so I was familiar with guided meditation and it’s benefits. But I am already very aware how in using Nerva, I am able to reach a more deep and relaxed state of mind more quickly. The voice of the one who is supplying the verbally guided stages in the hypnotherapy sessions is extremely soothing and trustworthy for me. Thank you, Nerva, for your innovation and enlightenment. Thank you for making this phenomenal tool so accessible to people who genuinely desire to enhance and enrich their physical and mental qualities in living life. I thank the God I believe in for all of this. I have now completed three weeks in using Nerva. I have stayed steady in daily using this program. I find myself feeling not only more confident, more relaxed, and worrying less about my digestive issues, but I am less stressed and more calm these days. I am not new to diaphragmatic breathing, but to implement it now in using Nerva feels so right. I have faith in what I am learning and internally processing regarding my health and overall well being. I am grateful for having Diet vs Disease and Nerva as my companions.

I hesitated before buying this app, but it was recommended in the book Regular and I really wanted relief from my issues. I realized it was about the same cost as a doctors visit and was some thing I could do at home. I really like it, and have noticed my guts are so much calmer and happier. I had never done hypnotherapy before and really enjoy taking that time for myself at the end of the day. I’ve been doing it for about a week and I’m looking forward to more.

Have been using Nerva for the last 4 days and loving it. Have done hypno with Dr Peters so knows this works, so wanted to get app to be able to use it all the time. This also gives me 15 mins of calm, relaxation to refocus myself and make my IBS better and better supported. Highly recommend this app for hypno to help with your IBS

I wanted to wait the full six weeks before giving a review so I could witness everything. It has completely changed my life. I suffered from episodes where I'd get gas from anxiety and wake up in the middle of the night and start to sweat, feel sick, panic and even pass out. I tried everything from switching up diet, doctor visits, custom personalized supplements, etc. You name it for IBS, and I've been down that path. All of them offered temporary relief but after Nerva I realized it was all because it was making me more calm and almost acting as a placebo. The breathing exercises, guided meditations, and readings were so insightful. The readings really helped me understand what was going on under the hood. Once I got caught up with how the machine ran, I was able to apply the right tools when any issues came up. It totally reframed my mind on the feedback loop cycle I found myself in and allowed me to take back control of my life. Very excited to have found Nerva as it is the ONLY thing that's work and stuck. 100/100! The only complaint I have, and it's from my wife, is despite my background light being on the lowest setting it was too bright at night. A dark mode would be great for the folks who are doing this at night in bed!

This programme has helped me immensely, and I would resubscribe. BUT. The price for membership has rocketed, and there is no provision for a discount that I can see, for pensioners like me or health card holders, which is a great pity. IBS is a very harsh condition to live with every day and a cure should not be out of reach for anyone.

The Nerva app has a really nice interface and most importantly it’s all backed up with scientific evidence. It slowly passes on the information and knowledge you need to understand both IBS and hypnotherapy techniques in a really accessible way. I listened to the hypnotherapy audio sessions at night before bed and they must have been good because I always got to sleep about half way through! I wasn’t really paying much attention to my symptoms at all as I’ve learnt to live with it but with retrospect it seems my IBS symptoms have definitely calmed down! I also wanted to mention that the customer care team are very helpful (got back to me even on a bank holiday) and you can even do a trial and request a refund if it’s not for you. For the price of a coffee a week I’d say it’s definitely worth a shot to see if it works for you.

My favorite app of all time, it has changed my life! I went from having flair ups every day/every other day to now barely having any at all! I was in such a depression because of my IBS, and the entire program felt so specifically tailored for me and what I was going through I couldn’t believe it. I just ended my program a few weeks ago and have been doing meditations as an upkeep protocol but not needed every day anymore. The initial program is absolutely worth every penny and I’m so sad that I can’t afford this app anymore and have ended my subscription. I would love to keep using it since my body is used to the ritual and responds so well. But It’s too expensive for how often I use it now which is only once a week or so. I hope they drop the rate for those who have completed the program, to keep those of us who are simply on upkeep protocol and maybe don’t need access to the vast library of meditations but just a simple few. Not only has this app worked better for me than anything doctors have been able to do, but it’s saved me money which is a huge plus. But this is still too expensive for me. Will be watching to see if they drop the maintenance price as I would resubscribe in an instant!

I relax when I take slow, deep belly breaths (diaphramic breathing). I would like to see that incorporated into the hypnotherapy. It is jarring to hear “relax the muscles of the skull” because the skull doesn’t have muscles. I change it to “scalp” when I’m listening. I can’t relax my ears or nose, but I definitely need to relax my jaw and tongue. I would like to see that incorporated. Those additions would make a difference for me! These suggestions were written in the first few weeks as feedback to the authors. The program is helping me feel better. I am more relaxed in general and don’t obsess about IBS. My voice is stronger and I’m even gaining weight!

5 days in and feeling more in control. Long may this improvement continue. Week 9, still using every day. Symptoms have improved significantly. Better still is the fact that I’m not feeling as anxious or upset when something makes my bowel ‘go off on one’. These attacks also seem to be less explosive!! I intend to continue using Nerva regularly.

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 completed the program and I have almost no symptoms still 6 months later. It really did change my relationship to the symptoms/pain. The sensitivity to the sensations is way down, to the point I don't even feel like I have IBS anymore. Every once in a while I choose a random meditation from the app to listen to and I relax instantly. I am so grateful to have found Nerva. It's unbelievable how long lasting the results have been.

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.
