Tinnitus

Whilst there is no medical cure for tinnitus, there are many things that can help with management of symptoms and in some cases resolve it completely.  It normally improves over time due to a process called habituation when the brain grows accustomed to the sounds you are experiencing so that they are much less noticeable.  There are a range of treatments available which can facilitate the habituation process and these in turn make it easier to cope with the condition.

To help you manage your tinnitus symptoms, we recommend booking an Advanced Hearing Assessment.  This takes 90 minutes and costs £70.

At the Assessment, our audiologist will carry out diagnostic tests and closely examine your ear canal and ear drum to determine your general ear health.  Additional pitch and high frequency tone tests will help determine your particular sound sensitivities.

From the test results, our audiologist will then offer advice and guidance to help you manage your tinnitus symptoms. In some cases, we can offer hearing aids which have specialised features for tinnitus management including sound therapy.
