There are many treatment options for tinnitus that range from supplements to cognitive therapy. Today we will focus on sound therapy. This therapy can be as simple as a CD that plays different environmental sounds to a music generator that matches the hearing and tinnitus level of the patient.
Sound therapy acts like a masker, producing a sound that masks over the tinnitus, giving your brain a different sound (hopefully more pleasing) to focus on. It can be used with headphones, hearing aid like devices or a stereo. While not for everyone, sound therapy can be a viable option in treating tinnitus. I hope you enjoy this article that outlines how and why sound therapy works.
