USING SOUND IN TINNITUS MANAGEMENT

Sound ‘therapy’ is a commonly used method of managing tinnitus. Sounds used in tinnitus management can be amplified sound from hearing aids, environmental sounds, music, or noise from noise generators. Using sound in this way can help minimize the contrast between the tinnitus and the surrounding sound environment to provide relief from the annoying sound. Sound therapy also aids in relaxation. As stress is one of the highest exacerbating factors involved with tinnitus, stress reduction is a vital element in effective tinnitus management.

Inspired by the relaxing effects of certain types of music, Widex developed the Zen fractal tones. Based on what is known as fractal technology, Zen plays random, chime-like tones that can be used for relaxation and for making tinnitus less noticeable.
