Tinnitus Awareness Week: Raising Awareness & Offering Support
Tinnitus Awareness Week is a perfect chance for us to shine a light on a condition that affects millions of people - often in varying ways. While we're not tinnitus specialists, we regularly speak with customers who live with tinnitus, and we know how often it goes hand in hand with hearing loss.
Tinnitus presents itself in many forms. It can sound like ringing, buzzing or humming and can range from being barely noticeable, to being very intrusive. Because experiences differ so widely, awareness, understanding and practical support are essential for anyone living with tinnitus.
Tinnitus, Hearing Loss & Everyday Life
Tinnitus is often linked to hearing loss, and many people experience the two together. When hearing changes occur, the brain may create its own 'phantom' sounds. These are often more noticeable in quieter moments, such as when trying to relax, focus or fall asleep.
Although there's currently no cure for tinnitus, many people find strategies that can help their symptoms more manageable. One of the most popular and effective approaches is sound therapy.
How Sound Therapy Helps with Tinnitus
Sound therapy uses carefully curated, calming sounds that gently 'mask' tinnitus, helping the brain to shift focus so it's easier to sleep, relax or concentrate.
Most tinnitus sound relaxers work in a similar way, but each of them offer unique features. Because tinnitus affect everyone differently, there isn't one sound that works for all. Some people prefer music, while others find nature sounds or specific frequencies of white noise to work best.
