Leave a Review Juva Stress and Migraine
Daily meditation app
In addition to the helpful CBT lessons related to managing migraines, this app has a lot of really nice guided meditations. If you’re wanting to start a meditation habit and have migraines, this is a great app for you. It takes consistent, daily practice to see improvement, and definitely takes time (I’m not there yet myself), I am more in tune with my body’s response to stress, and am better equipped at managing that response through breathing techniques. Recommend for those facing general stress in addition to migraine sufferers.Show lessNotmy name
Impressed, good foundation needs a bit of polish.
I have been using various other forms of biofeedback and I am really excited to see it become *much* *more* accessible.
The pulse detection is surprisingly good, I ran it in combination with a separate HRM and they only differed by 2-4 BPM. The breath rate seems less reliable, even if I am following a steady breath pacer it jumps all other the place. I would love to see support added for bluetooth pulse HRMs like polar or even the HM ear clip (if that's possible).
Lastly there are some small bugs and flow changes that would be nice. Sometimes the puzzle games are pretty flakey. I would like to see it using calendar days rather than monotonically increasing days since sometimes I miss days, or would like to log the question for a previous day.Show lessvfilby
amazing technology
I came upon this app in the middle of the night with a migraine that wouldn’t go away, desperately looking for some help, and learned about biofeedback. While my migraine didn’t go away entirely that night, I learned these techniques may help prevent them in the future if I make it a practice… and I practiced my breathing which actually did lessen the pain for me. I am so happy I downloaded this app!Show lessMacLainie
So far, so good
I’m pretty new to the app, but so far the interface is pretty intuitive and easy to use. It seems to work well and it’s pretty cool that this treatment is achievable with a smart phone. There’s also a lot of supplementary information to look through for educational purposes. It is a big app and takes up quite a lot of storage on my phone, and does eat through my battery life quickly (I have an older phone so this may not be as much of an issue on newer devices). I also thought the intro videos were useful and informative.Show lessAstagemanager
Great tool to have at home
I’ve always wanted to try biofeedback to help improve my chronic migraine condition. This app makes it easy and accessible. I’m still working on getting the optimal set up for the most accurate HR readings, but in each of the sessions I’ve done, I’ve been able to focus on moving the green bar towards the relaxation side. I’ve only been using it for a week but look forward to seeing what effect it has on my migraines and stress levels generally in the weeks and months to come.
The customer support they offer is impressive. The company really wants to make sure you get the most out of the app. I’m impressed.Show lessAnother Not My Name789
Love DIY at home app
This technology is pretty amazing. I love that I can actually experience biofeedback without going to a facility. I can use it anytime. I’m learning a lot about my body reactions, more than with meditation, which is similar, but biofeedback seems a lot more powerful when battling migraine. I just can’t use the finger method because the new iphones have multiple cameras on the back. But it’s been on using the camera on my face.Show lessdrbones5
Professional biofeedback for migraine
I am a physical therapist and I have used a very complex biofeedback program in clinic with patients. This program is just as complex but much simpler to navigate and more user friendly. And, it does not require coming into a clinic! I have migraines and have recently begun using JUVA for biofeedback relaxation training. The scientific evidence is very good in supporting the use of biofeedback relaxation training as a complementary, non medicine intervention for migraine. Years ago I used biofeedback for TMJ syndrome and it changed my life. The JUVA app is a gift to migraine sufferers so by all means take advantage of having this technology in the palm of your hands.Show lessJRSPT
Amazing tool!
I have known bio- and neurofeedback for years and I am excited to finally be able to use these methods by myself and at home. Although Juva is primarily designed for migraines, I recommend it for anyone who wants to learn how to get into a calm and meditative state quickly. Any patient with a chronic illness can benefit from Juva.
I just discovered Juva and I'm so excited that I've already recommended it to all my friends. Wonderful app!Show lessMiflezed
Just Started
I just started this and I am so very hopeful. I've had a couple migraine specialists suggest biofeedback to me, but I never bit the bullet. Now, I can't afford NOT to try everything. Looking forward to the benefits!Krismoon
Huge Help
Although I am new to the app it has already noticeably reduced migraine days. As I have disabling chronic illness - this home remedy is a game changer!Lethargic Latte
