Get the Relief You Need: Introducing iTinnitus Solutions. Have you been to a doctor or an audiologist who told you: “Live with it”? For many, that answer alone, without help or understanding, is not enough. And it really leaves that person with a sense of having to face the ringing in their ears all alone. iTinnitus Solutions is an innovative dynamic sound therapy package for patients with tinnitus. It is intended to educate patients on tinnitus and accompany directions already set out by your audiologist or physician. It includes a means to characterize your tinnitus by frequency in Hertz (cycles per second) and by relative volume. This may be recorded on a daily basis in the tinnitus diary. With accumulated data, both frequency and volume may be graphed over time. If you keep track of noise exposures or dietary intake, you might see a trend in sudden changes in tinnitus that relate to changes in your day to day activities and modify them accordingly. The mainstay of management of tinnitus, other than lifestyle changes like caffeine and salt reduction, noise protection and prevention, is masking. Masking therapy is some form of sound (generally a broad spectrum set of tones) played at a volume around the same volume as your own tinnitus, effectively masking it. In iTinnitus Solutions, the masking noise can be chosen along with volume and set on a timer. Residual Inhibition is a tone generator that plays a tone that closely matches your own tinnitus frequency on a timer. In some forms of tinnitus, listening to the tone matching your tinnitus for 10-20 minutes will leave you with a sense of quiet (inhibition of your tinnitus) for a short duration. In some, this is ideal to help them get to sleep, or before going to meetings. Habituation is a long term retraining of tinnitus. It involves realizing that tinnitus is not a dangerous disorder in most people, and that it can be integrated into their lives. It involves a graduated process of decreasing masking techniques over a six week period. The software will automatically “wean” you from masking over the retraining period. This technique is one of the most successful ways to manage tinnitus but requires your commitment to complete the training. With proper application, your tinnitus handicap inventory grade can drop by one or two levels! Stop being controlled by tinnitus, and take charge. Let us help you take the first step. Screenshots
