What's the science?
Nerva uses evidence-based hypnotherapy techniques, delivered via an app, to help you learn automatic skills that can help 'fix' the miscommunication between your gut and brain.
The program was designed by Dr Simone Peters, who ran a clinical trial with Monash University that found her approach worked just as well as the Low FODMAP diet in helping you live well with IBS (1).

Why try hypnotherapy for IBS?
Hypnotherapy teaches you how to address this miscommunication between the gut and brain.

Hypnosis involves entering a state of absorbed attention where you become hyper-focused on specific stimuli (such as a feeling or a memory) led by suggestions from a hypnotherapist.
During hypnosis, suggestions bypass the critical mind allowing you to subconsciously 'fix' the miscommunication between your gut and brain (how your brain and gut send and receive nerve impulses). These suggestions teach you automatic skills that can help you self-manage IBS symptoms.

Why do over 3000 healthcare professionals recommend Nerva to their patients to help manage IBS?
Molly Warner
“As a healthcare professional, I find it helpful to be able to ‘prescribe’ focused time and attention for the ‘rest and digest’ nervous system, which ultimately helps clients to find balance in their busy lifestyles. Gut-directed hypnotherapy simply just makes sense – especially having the app to use at any time of day”
Dietitian and Intuitive Eating Counsellor, Satisfy Nutrition
Dr. Shamistra Barathan
"While I’ve been aware of gut-directed hypnotherapy for many years, I was happy to stumble across the Nerva app as it’s so hard for patients to receive in-person therapy like this because it’s expensive, waiting lists are long, and often patients need help much quicker.”
Integrative Health GP, Mint Holistic Healthcare Clinic
Amy Minogue
“Working as a dietitian in the gut space, I am frequently referring clients to the Nerva program. It is great to have a trusted and easily accessible option for clients to address the gut-brain axis as part of a well rounded treatment approach to IBS, and it allows me to then focus mainly on nutrition strategies during consult time. Clients often mention genuinely enjoying the program, and find the educational content helpful for a broader understanding of the link between the gut and brain and how this may be impacting their IBS symptoms.”
