Tinnitus Treatment
While there is currently no cure for tinnitus, our audiologists can provide treatment. Patients can still get relief from tinnitus by treating the symptoms of the condition. The most common treatment for tinnitus is utilizing sound therapy with either hearing aids or tinnitus maskers that help the brain ignore the specific tinnitus frequency.
Hearing aids are especially helpful for tinnitus relief if the patient suffers from both tinnitus as well as some type of hearing loss. Our audiologists have several options that, depending on your particular condition, that assist in the treatment of tinnitus:
- ReSound Verso TS offers advanced tinnitus therapy tools such as a white noise generator, frequency shaper, volume control of noise, environmental steering, amplitude modulation and streaming sound signals.
- Phonak Audéo Q’s are able to generate sounds which reduce the annoyance of tinnitus.
- Widex Zen Therapy is a unique approach that combines sound stimulation, counseling, stress reduction as well as amplification depending on your level of tinnitus.
- Starkey Hearing Technologies offers the Xino Tinnitus which creates a customizable and comforting sound stimulus that you and your audiologist can fine-tune to soothe the unique, irritating sounds you hear, giving you all day tinnitus relief.
Just because there is not a cure for tinnitus does not mean that a patient should not receive treatment for tinnitus. Untreated tinnitus can have a significant impact on an individual’s quality of life; fatigue, depression, anxiety, irritability, sleep problems, lack of concentration and stress are prevalent in suffers from tinnitus. Getting some sort of tinnitus relief might not directly affect the tinnitus; however, it will certainly help restore your quality of life.
