I used it. I would say it improved some of my symptoms, but not a complete cure. It helped with my anxiety. I am tempted to restart the programme at thw moment.

There is a short reading section each day during the initial part of the course. That explains the condition and how the mind gut connection works. It only takes a couple of minutes to read. Then it's the hypnotherapy section, with some breathing exercises brought in at the end. You do get the free trial to see whether it suits you.

Didn’t work for me. Plenty of other meditation apps that are free and I get on better with them.

Hi! It worked really well for me. I'm still following a reduced FODMAP diet for my IBS, but using Nerva got rid of all the symptoms I was having due to stress. It took about four months or so of daily sessions to work, but that was over a year ago and I haven't had to use it for several months. I'd definitely give it a go. Good luck! 😊

I have tried hynotherapy three times, first with a GP friend of my GP at the time (about 30 years ago). Secondly I tried CDs by Michael Mahoney (about 10 years ago) and lastly quite recently Nerva. None of them worked for me.
