“Nervana can provide patients with remarkable insights into pain or illness not caused by injury or disease. Highly recommended.”

Jenna Sheftel, PsyD

“Nervana serves as a useful adjunct for individuals navigating chronic pain and primary somatic distress. Its tools align well with the Pain Reprocessing Therapy framework, providing structured between-session support to help down-regulate learned neural threat responses.”
The brain-body connection
Pain and other symptoms are produced by the brain and nervous system to protect you. Sometimes that protection stays on high alert after an injury, illness, or period of chronic stress.
Nervana teaches you how to recognize and respond to those learned danger signals differently.
