What Is Tinnitus?

Tinnitus is the perception of sound in the ears or head when no external noise is present. The brain receives signals from the auditory nerve that a sound exists, even when there isn’t one. This can cause distraction, fatigue, stress, and anxiety.

Common Causes of Tinnitus

Hearing Loss

Prolonged Exposure to Loud Noises

Earwax Buildup

Stress and Anxiety

Medications

Sinus and Allergy Issues

Diet

Head or Neck Injuries

TMJ (jaw joint) Disorders

Medical Conditions Affecting Circulation or Inflammation
(e.g., high blood pressure, hypothyroidism)

Types of Tinnitus

Objective Tinnitus

An extremely rare form where the tinnitus can actually be heard by others. Often linked to muscle movements or blood flow issues.

Subjective Tinnitus

The far more common type, experienced only by the individual. Usually related to inner ear or auditory nerve damage and often manageable but not curable.

How Is Tinnitus Treated?

There is currently no universal cure for tinnitus. Treatment focuses on managing symptoms and improving quality of life. Our approach includes a combination of medical evaluation, hearing technology, and counseling.

A comprehensive hearing evaluation identifies hearing loss, wax blockage, or other ear disorders that may contribute to tinnitus.

Modern hearing aids can reduce tinnitus symptoms by amplifying external sounds and including special features designed to mask or cancel tinnitus noises. These devices are customized to your specific hearing needs and tinnitus profile.

When hearing aids or masking aren’t enough, TRT can help retrain your brain to ignore tinnitus sounds by using soothing background noise like ocean waves or chimes, promoting relaxation over months or years.

Though no medications are FDA-approved specifically for tinnitus, some drugs may help reduce anxiety, stress, or depression caused by tinnitus. A physician consultation can help determine if medication might be appropriate.

Lifestyle choices such as regular exercise, yoga, meditation, massage, and counseling can improve circulation, increase endorphins, reduce stress, and lessen tinnitus impact.
