New Acoustic CR® Neuromodulation brochure available
It’s been a busy month here at The Tinnitus Clinic, with a lot of enquiries coming in about our new treatment for tinnitus, Acoustic CR® Neuromodulation. To answer some of the questions people have asked, we’ve produced a new brochure which explains the science behind this form of tinnitus therapy, its success rates and the treatment process.
Stress and tinnitus
We live in stressful times. In October 2010, the BBC reported on a University of Manchester study which found that work stress levels had risen by 4% in the previous two years. The article states that stress ‘could trigger depression, anxiety, workplace injuries and suicide, and lead to a greater risk of heart disease.’
Study shows Acoustic CR® Neuromodulation gets results
The results of a new study into using Acoustic CR® Neuromodulation for the treatment of tinnitus was presented at the Fifth International TRI (Tinnitus Research Initiative) Tinnitus Conference 2011, in the USA.
New tinnitus treatment in the UK
Up to 10% of adults in the UK experience mild tinnitus or worse. It is characterised by a perception of ringing, buzzing, whistling, roaring or hissing in the ears. As well being caused by regular exposure to loud noise, triggers for tinnitus can also include ear or head injuries, infections, medication side effects and emotional stress.
