A free app based on the 14-week North Carolina gut-directed hypnotherapy protocol, designed to help people with IBS reduce symptoms and retrain the gut–brain connection.

IBSbuddy is inspired by gut-directed behavioral therapy and decades of research on how stress, the nervous system, and IBS are connected. This is a self-guided learning program based on well-researched gut–brain practices. No diets. No pills. Just structured daily audio you can do at home.
