Hi Product Hunt! I’m Nora, the founder of Nervana.
I have a Harvard MBA and MS in Biotech. I spent years working in biopharma, but ironically, I recovered from chronic pain, digestive issues, and insomnia through a clinical research study that involved no drugs at all.
The study taught me that stress, a prior injury, or trauma can keep the nervous system in a state of high alert, continuing to send danger signals even when the body is no longer in danger. No one had ever explained this to me before. I was skeptical, but within a few weeks, I completely recovered.
I built Nervana because this research was life-changing, yet still incredibly difficult to find and access.
Nervana is designed to change that. It gives users a personalized daily plan, step-by-step education, and a voice AI coach informed by the work of more than 400 mind-body experts. The program draws from treatments studied in emerging clinical trials.
So far, 87% of people find Nervana helpful by Session 10 on the app, and 52% of people who start a free trial become paying members.
Nervana is for people whose symptoms persist despite treatment, shift or change over time, improve inconsistently, or worsen with stress.
Please share Nervana with someone you know who feel like they've tried everything under the sun for their symptoms. We offer scholarships for those who cannot afford the program!
🌟 Thank you for supporting our launch!
One thing that would really help is a way to log symptom severity quickly right after a coaching session, like a quick slider or a short voice note that ties to that day's entry. It would make it easier to look back and see whether a technique actually helped over time.
@gllsavalwrx That's a great idea! We currently have the ability to log symptom severity every 7 days, because we don't want people to "obsess" over symptom metrics, but I like the rating right after exploring a new technique for extra personalization!
@nora_rodden - As someone who as suffered with ME/CFS for over a decade it is great to see product development focusing on these invisible struggles. Best of luck with the launch!
@codeandsea thank you so much!
the voice AI coaching feels like such a thoughtful choice for people dealing with brain fog or fatigue on bad days. love that it’s rooted in actual lived experience rather than another generic wellness app.
@ebubekirhh1n Thank you so much! Yes, we even had users with brain fog mention they preferred audio instead of written text, so we released that recently. Thank you for your support!
