Hiatus hernia Iqoro.

[Healthworrier]

I have read about a device called Iqoro which is claimed to improve hiatus hernia. It's very expensive. Has anyone here used this device. Would be grateful for any input. Many thanks.

Hello, I bought an Iqoro in Jan. 2020, I have a 2cm Hiatus hernia but my main symptom is night time acid reflux. After using it for a few days I started to get sharp pains in that area. I contacted Iqoro to see if that was normal and they said it is where the internal muscles are being exercised. I did not really persevere with it as I was worried it might be doing more harm than good. However, everyone is different and you may find it works well for you. I would recommend gradually building up the exercises from once a day for a week, then twice a day until the recommended three times a day. Good luck.

Hi thanks for your interesting post. I have just bought an Iqoro. Did your pains persist? Or did you stop using it? Has it helped relive the symptoms? Thanks.

Hello, I stopped using it and rely on Omeprazole, Famotidine and Gaviscon Advance before bed. I would rather have a natural alternative, so may give it another try, but more gradually this time. Hope you have success with your Iqoro. I think it takes a few months of perseverence to start seeing results.

Hi, Thanks for your speedy reply. The Iqoro will arrive in a few days. I notice all of the clinical trials appear to have been conducted by the owner of the company! I will keep you posted.
