I have been meaning to leave a review for quite some time and thought is it worth it as I purchased the plastic implement from Iqoro must be a couple of years ago and got negative feedback from the company, I purchased it for £150 and have suffered from heartburn for approx 35 years, I followed the training every day for a total of nine months, the reason I did it for that length of time they did say it could take longer than the six months for some people, I did email them six months in saying that there is no improvement at all but thought will give it longer in the hope it would work, it didn't work at all tried to get my money back but they wouldn't give me it back, their guarantee means nothing DONT BUY THIS PRODUCT.

I just wanted to share that I have been using the Iqoro device for 4 months. At first I didn't think it was doing anything but I persisted - 3 times a day. I have been on PPI's for about 10 years because of a Haital Hernia and close to having an operation as I know long term use of using PPI's is not good. 4 days ago I decided to wean off the PPI's and see what happens. I have tried this before and the reflux comes back with a vengeance. Well, I was shocked and so grateful that I have absolutely no reflux symptoms and didn't even have to wean off them. It was instant. Even sleeping flat was no problem. I am absolutely thrilled and beyond grateful. I just wanted to share my results and say thank you to the company and all the research backing it. It works! I am hoping others will have similar results and I will tell everyone to invest in Iqoro.

After careful consideration, I received the product as a gift from a friend. However, after just a few days my mild one-sided tinnitus had irreversibly worsened and has since become louder and bilateral. Iquoro support gave me pep talks and accused me of being at fault due to possible improper use, which certainly wasn't the case. Other symptoms, such as reflux, heartburn, dry cough, and bloating, have remained completely unchanged even after six months. Worse still, as I experienced the worsening of my tinnitus, I became cautious and increased to 5-second exercises only after months. That same day, the frequency of the tinnitus changed even more unpleasantly. After contacting customer support again four and a half months after starting the excercises I was again fobbed off with pep talks.
When I tried to initiate a return and refund to the customer about six months later, my message was ignored. I only received the reply "Your request (94058) has been resolved. Thank you for reaching out to IQoro customer support."
I wonder what value their guaranted refund in case of an unsuccessful treatment holds?

Sorry that there seemed to be a misunderstanding. I checked all incoming, spams and cancelled mails. The reply never reached me. I am looking forward to the refund to my friend.

Iqoro requires on placebo and social 'proof' on facebook. It made my symptoms way worse.

Reply from IQoro
1 year ago, I was diagnosed with a large 9cm HH and my symptoms were excessive burping, lump in the throat, and discomfort in the chest (no Acid Reflux or Heartburn). I started using the Iqoro as soon as I was diagnosed (Sept 2024) and I am now, 1 year later completely symptom free.
My symptoms definitely got worse before they got better (as Iqoro suggest they may) as I then experienced the acid reflux. At the beginning of May I enquired about a private endoscopy as I was thinking that the Iqoro wasn't working and was contemplating surgery as my hernia was so large. I went ahead with the endoscopy a few weeks later even though my symptoms had improved massively in those few weeks whilst waiting for the appointment. The findings were that there 'was no hernia' and the consultant thought there was a mistake on my first endoscopy but from my point of view both endoscopies reflected my symptoms at the time, both times. I understand that the hernia can slide up and down BUT was told that a 9cm hernia does not usually completely disappear, but after a CT scan and Endoscopy it certainly appeared to have and I was feeling so much better.
I have waited 4 months to write this review as I wanted to be sure that I really am better and am completely symptom free. I have been eating tomatoes and 85% dark chocolate (on a daily basis) for the last couple of months and have recently re introduced coffee (after not having any for a year) with no symptoms. I was fortunate that I never had to use PPI's (they didn't help the burping), but did use an over the counter ant acid liquid when suffering with the acid reflux. I am happy to report that I have not needed any form of medications since the end of May this year.
It took 9 months for me to see 80% improvement in my symptoms and a year to be symptom free. I appreciate everyone has different circumstances but wanted to share my positive experience as I had quite a large HH. I would definitely recommend Iqoro and say it is worth every penny.

Just purchased a iqoro the second one the first one lasted 2 years brilliant just give it a try nothing to lose well £145 but it could help .

I received the device and was less than impressed. A huge, ridiculous price for what it is. I didn’t open it and have tried to get permission to return it. You have to send them pics of the unopened device, seals intact. I sent them pics two days ago and no response from them. Even if the device was brilliant, I can’t forgive myself for paying what I did for a glorified mouth guard. Maybe they’ll get back to me?

I purchased the Iqoro in June 2025 after suffering for nearly 2 years with indegestion at least every fortnight at first and then up to starting with the device I was suffering bouts 3-4 times weekly which nothing would take that pain away. I’d been to my GP August last year who put me on omemprazole for 2 months which whilst taking I never suffered but I don’t like taking any medication and certainly not long term so I looked for an alternative. I came across Iqoro in May of this year. I took the symptom test online and it suggested I could have a hiatus hernia. I read up about it and further researched the Iqoro. I never went back to my GP who wanted me to have the dreaded camera down my throat! So I bit the bullet and treated myself to the Iqoro. At first I continued to take over the counter esomemprazole as well as exercising 3 times daily only because I was going on holiday. But since 30/6 I’ve not taken any meds and I not suffered any pain. I know it’s early days but surely things can only get better! I sleep much better and eat virtually what I want. This has changed my life and I will continue with it always!

I had no faith in this device, didn't even pay much attention to training technique because I was sure it couldn't work then after 5 weeks then I noticed I didn't have as much indigestion. Still not convinced I thought it must be a placebo effect. I continued to improve. Indigestion was stopping me exercising, eating my favourite foods and having such a negative impact on my life. I tell anyone who will listen about this device. After 5 years I use it everyday, 3 times a day. Forget maintenance it's quicker reaching for the bit of plastic than finding tablets. I have even bought a second one. This device could save the NHS a fortune and no one appears to know about it. Indigestion is such a common problem and most people use expensive medicines but never cure it.

I had a gastroscopy in July 2024. The result showed that I had a hiatus hernia and moderate gastritis in the oesophagus. I was prescribed PPI medication and told that I would need to take the tablets for ever. My symptoms disappeared within days and I could eat virtually anything with zero side effects.
In September 2024 I read an article on the IQoro device and purchased one on Amazon. I started to use it on 18 September 2024 and used it in conjunction with the PPI medication until the New Year 2025, when I gradually withdrew from taking the PPI medication.
I conscientiously did the 30 second exercise three times a day. As time went on my acid reflux, heartburn etc started to return but I persevered with the exercises until mid April (seven months of using the IQoro device).
I then returned to see my GP who recommended that I return to using PPI’s. Regrettably I started using the medication again on 23 April 2025 and once again I am symptom free.
Interestingly IQoro refused to give me a refund because I ordered it on
Amazon even though the Amazon website says “Dispatched by Amazon” but “SOLD BY IQORO”!.
Strangely the supporting text on Amazon describing the benefits of the IQoro fails to mention the guarantee! Although I eventually got a refund from Amazon.
They certainly make you jump through hurdles before one is able to grudgingly obtain a refund.
I’m intrigued on what statistical basis are they able to claim a 97% success rate. When was the analysis undertaken? What was the size of the sample? Was the analysis subject to peer review? Was this research published in a recognised journal?
The 2015 study’s results of 43 adults showed 98% experienced improvements in dysphagia but only 58% became entirely symptom free. The 2018 and 2021 studies showed that statistically significant improvements were observed but not that 97% being symptoms free.
In March 2019 NICE reviewed “IQoro for hiatus hernia” and indicated that IQoro could serve as an alternative to PPI therapy. Nonetheless, NICE points out limitations due to the studies’ design and the need for comparative research.
Surely IQoro should be launching a new research study to determine its efficacy now that it appears to have widespread use. I acknowledge that my commentaries on the three studies and the NICE statement are based upon replies to questions I put to ChatGPT. Not by me reading all of the literature myself. But I have no reason to doubt its validity. Or that the total number of adults included in the studies is of the order of 150. Not very many.

I had been suffering from acid reflux for sometime. All the doctor could offer me to help was Omeprazole which I tried but it didn't help. So I did some research and found out about Iqoro and decided to give it a try.
I purchased the Iqoro device in February
2024. I started to use it as advised to exercise the muscles. I did not see an improvement for quite a while but decided to stick with it. After 8 months of using Iqoro my acid reflux had gone!! I am now able to sleep better, eat meals without suffering and feeling a whole lot better. I cannot recommend this product enough. It has changed my life. If you are suffering from acid reflux give this product a go. It really works. Stick with the exercises because it will work. It just takes a little longer for some people to get the results they need. This is so much better than taking prescription medication. The science behind this does not lie.

I've been using the iqoro since early January. I starting working nightshift
october and my symptoms were much worse than previous (around 7 years ) for a few months. The Iqoro has helped immensely and I'm terrible for remembering to use at the reccommed rates. I no longer take meds or gaviscon. I would recommend 100% . I couldn't do without it now.

Reply from IQoro
Made my symptoms 100% worse. It might offer some help to some people but their success stories often include lots of other things that could be helping more than sucking a lump of plastic. Very clever marketing and lots of social proof on Facebook but it’s a gimmick in my honest opinion.

Reply from IQoro
I've used the IQoro for 3 years now to treat reflux caused by a hiatus hernia, previously I was on Omeprazole, but it wasn't controlling the reflux. If you follow the instructions and use it 3 times a day for 30 seconds a time, it keeps the reflux away brilliantly. I have not had to have any acid tablets of any description since!! Each one lasts a year to 18 months, so great value for money! Highly recommended!

Reply from IQoro
Using IQORO certainly changed my life over a few short months : using it 3 times a day it tightened up all my throat muscles, hence I lost excess fat around my neck and throat, which reduced enormously my snoring and occasional sleep apnea. After I started with it a year ago, I continue using it once a day - can’t remember the last time I had any reflux problems either! Brilliant piece of kit for general well being !! Thank you.

I was apprehensive to purchase an Iqoro device at first simply because of the price. I had read lots of reviews before finally buying one and it is the exact reason I’m writing one, I hope it helps someone suffering from spit up reflux like I was!
Due to a busy schedule I began training with it only every few days but after doing this for 2-3 weeks I did see a significant improvement, to the point where my first thought when I got home was, I need to train with the device. Since then I have had slight acid reflux episodes (not anywhere near like before) I would say but when it does come up I use the device and it tends to go away again.
I highly recommend this device, no regrets with buying one 2 months down line!

Reply from IQoro
Nope. One year later. Made my hiatal hernia (HH) and acid reflux worse. I talked to three doctors: one was positive about it and told me to try it, but the other two explained that if it actually worked, they would have read, heard, or seen it after 30 years as gastroenterologists.
Superb marketing, maybe even a genuinely good initial intention, and perhaps even a lifesaver for SOME people and certain conditions—but for me, and based on 30% of the reviews here, it has either had no effect or even worsened symptoms.
They have a fantastic marketing team and a customer service team who are quick to respond and will even call you if you leave a bad review (if you’re in Sweden). Honestly, it feels a bit invasive. These people might be well-meaning, but their complete disregard for negative reviews and reported problems, combined with the lack of more OBJECTIVE and publicly available tests, unfortunately, leads me to this conclusion: it’s now become a gimmick.
I don’t feel comfortable calling it a scam because I honestly don’t believe it is. The company is public, their financials are in order, they don’t have many reports with Allmänna Reklamationsnämnden (ARN), and they are accessible and contactable via email and phone. So no, it’s not a scam—it’s just a very well-marketed product that may help some (perhaps even through placebo), but I believe the majority are NOT helped. On top of that, the medical community has barely heard of it.

I’ve been using this product for just under a month. I noticed a difference within a couple of days, I then started to get my GERD back but didn’t give up. My acid heartburn has changed for the better if not almost gone I think the only reason at times I feel it is because it’s probably fixing my hh. I’m really pleased with it and would recommend this product with ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.
