New and promising tinnitus and hyperacusis therapies/treatments:
National Institute of Health: "Rebooting the brain helps stop the ring of tinnitus..." -Dealing with some new finds involving electrode stimulation of the vagus nerve in the neck. Not like other therapies -- not masking or hiding the tinnitus... actually returning the brain to the neurological state that it was in before the onset of tinnitus. The Wall Street Journal: "Turing Off the Ringing Sound" -Dealing mostly with rTMS, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and cognitive behaioral therapy. Acoustic CR Neuromodulation from Anm-Medical.com -aimed at "unlearning" the tinnitus sound. Using a complex mathematic algorithm as a basis, the device works towards disrupting the pathologically hyperactive synchronicity of the nerve cells in the auditory cortex - through non-invasive, targeted acoustic signals.
