Tinnitus – Ringing in the Ears
Tinnitus is a condition characterized by the perception of sound in the ears or head without an external source. It can manifest as buzzing, hissing, whistling, or other sounds. It affects millions of people worldwide and can significantly impact quality of life.
Neurofeedback offers a new approach to treating tinnitus. Research shows that people with tinnitus often have specific patterns of brain activity, especially in the auditory areas of the brain.
How neurofeedback can help:
- Regulation of abnormal brain activity associated with tinnitus
- Reduction in perceived sound intensity
- Improved ability to ignore tinnitus
- Reduction of stress and anxiety related to tinnitus
While neurofeedback cannot completely eliminate tinnitus in all cases, many patients report significant reduction in symptoms and improved quality of life after treatment.
