Very helpful for relaxation
I have had chronic migraine for several years. I’ve been using Juva for three months and it has greatly improved my ability to relax. It has not impacted my migraine attacks (not much does), but the ability to relax on command is very helpful when I have attacks.
Needs tweaking
The concepts are sound and camera tech is good. Some of the picture exercises have confusing directions and caused me to feel frustrated which was counterproductive. I sent two emails to get help but got no response. Abondoned the effort as a result.
Glitchy and inaccurate
I had high hopes for this app and was looking forward to giving it a go. But I have found many of the exercises to freeze or glitch, and the breathing and heart rate measurements are not accurate. They often read much higher than they actually are. I have contacted the support several times over a few weeks but have had no response at all. Disappointed.

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.

Great Tool for Migraines
Been using JUVA for 3 weeks and can take down a4 migraine to a 2 without meds. For more serious migraines -5+ - use meds plus JUVA and have been able to get results. The app has a couple of bugs including the Full Module not tracking which components have been completed. But don’t let that distract you - fundamentally it’s super helpful to managing migraines. Was recommended by my migraine Dr at Mayo and they were spot on.
