Tinnitus Assessment & Management

Tinnitus is commonly described as a ringing in the ear, but can also be described as whirring, hissing or clicking.

The most common type of tinnitus is subjective tinnitus which can be caused by a middle ear infection, ear wax impaction, inflamed blood vessels, certain medications, and lifestyle factors such as diet, stress and anxiety

Currently there is no known cure for tinnitus, but there are ways to manage the condition.

Sound Therapy is a tinnitus management strategy that uses external sounds to mask and distract from the tinnitus, as well as habituation and neuromodulation.
