Top Recommendations For Tinnitus Treatments

By Graeme Teague


Tinnitus is a disturbing condition where you hear phantom sounds in your ears, which may be a ringing or humming or more like the flow of a stream. This is a condition that nobody enjoys dealing with so searching for treatments is a totally normal thing to do. Unfortunately tinnitus is not a condition that is easy to cure or treat. There are, though, some very good treatments for the condition and we'll explore a few of them here.

Tinnitus is usually more annoying than dangerous, but this isn't the case if your symptoms are caused by high blood pressure or hypertension. While it doesn't always cause tinnitus, high blood pressure is becoming a widespread issue for many people, especially those whose dietary and exercise habits need improvement. At least if you know this is the cause of your tinnitus, you now have an additional reason to work on lowering your blood pressure. If your blood pressure is dangerously high, you may be given a drug to lower it; as a side benefit, your tinnitus symptoms might lessen as well. While medication may be necessary to lower your blood pressure, if you want to keep it down without being dependent on a prescription, watch your diet and exercise at least a few times per week. Another thing to focus on is keeping stress to a minimum.

If you experience frequent tinnitus symptoms, one remedy that might bring you some relief is using white noise as a diversion.

White noise machines can be used to help you sleep at night, or placed next to you at work or at home. When you're out and about, you can wear headphones and listen to soothing sounds that you've downloaded. The goal here is to divert you away from these annoying internal sounds and towards more pleasant ones. You can't use white noise all day long, but it can be helpful when your tinnitus is especially troublesome. Tinnitus is one of those conditions that often has to be dealt with in a variety of ways, and white noise can be one approach.

If you're open to the possibility of hypnosis, this may be a technique for treating your tinnitus symptoms. Not everyone responds well to hypnosis, but if you do this is a technique that's worth trying. If a doctor can tell you why you have tinnitus, you should focus on addressing the underlying problem; hypnosis, however, is a viable method when the cause can't be determined. The hypnotist, whether human or a voice on an MP3 program, may be able to talk your brain into stop producing the sounds you hear as tinnitus. If you search, you can probably find an audio hypnosis program with spoken or perhaps subliminal suggestions that are aimed specifically at treating tinnitus. Hypnosis is not effective for everyone, but you may want to give it a try if you're having trouble finding an effective treatment.

When it comes to treating tinnitus, unless your doctor can identify a definite cause it may be necessary to experiment with several treatments. No one wants to have to listen to constant ringing or buzzing in their ears, and in many cases even doctors aren't much help. But if you're determined, you can eventually find a way to successfully relieve your tinnitus symptoms.
