Tinnitus affects 1/8 people, we can help reduce your symptoms.
You could have Tinnitus, which involves hearing a sound when there is no external sound present. This can be heard in one or both ears which can become distressing and start to interfere with your quality of life.
Our initial assessment can help identify what could be causing your tinnitus so we can work on diminishing the symptoms and put your mind at rest.
Our Tinnitus Specialist performs a thorough assessment of your hearing.
A range of diagnostic tests are performed to understand your individual Tinnitus profile (shown below).
Your specialist will then recommend an appropriate treatment pathway and answer any of your questions and concerns.
We will then begin treating your symptoms.
Through these diagnostic tests, we can help direct our treatments towards your specific needs.
After your diagnostic tests, we will tailor the following therapies to your individual needs. This will help treat the symptoms of Tinnitus you suffer from effectively.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
This is to alter your perception of tinnitus.
Instead of focusing on the negative aspects, we will help you focus on the positive outcomes of coping with your ailment.
Hearing aids
These could help to control your Tinnitus.
Often the underlying cause of Tinnitus is due to a hearing loss. We use hearing aids to correct the hearing loss and find that by increasing the ambient sounds, we have a dulling or total masking of the Tinnitus.
Sound Therapy
Sound is used to partially/completely cover the Tinnitus with the use of both wearable and/or non-wearable devices.
Biofeedback
This is a relaxation technique that tries to change your body’s reaction to stress.
This encourages you to control involuntary bodily functions (such as pulse and muscle tension).
Tinnitus cannot be cured, but thankfully it can be treated so that the symptoms are lessened.
There are some remedies that might help you cope with Tinnitus and improve your quality of your life:
Meditation, Limiting caffeine and alcohol intake, Exercise, Healthy eating habits, Yoga, Earplugs, Massage therapy.
It is very uncommon for symptoms to get worse. However, some factors can worsen Tinnitus such as
anxiety and prolonged exposure to loud noises.
Ménière’s Disease is a condition of the inner ear. It causes a type of dizziness that makes you feel like you are spinning.
It can also cause you to experience Tinnitus, hearing loss, nausea and pressure inside your ear. Please inform your hearing care
expert if you experience any of these symptoms along with your Tinnitus and we can help reduce
the severity and frequency of the dizziness.
