I reduce my tinnitus by running more. After few days of running my tinnitus decreased. I also start eating more fruit and veggies. Less meat. I do meditation every other day. and my tinnitus is gone. Keeping your mind busy in different activities helps too. Hope this can work for some of you.
@@niku7236 I start working on my tinnitus for 6 months. I start by making different ear exercises that I saw in you tube. Then I start jogging and exercising. Drinking fruit and veggies juices. I stop drinking coffee.

Esto de tinnitus es un infierno yo llevo 4meses sufriendo con Esto a punto de enloquecer me an echo resonancia magnetic y no encuentran causas me encomendado a dios Esto no es nada normal es un 😈 demonio en tu celebró conectando dos cables de corriente opuesto te genera anciedad 😢miedo😮depresión frustración a mi se me produjo con una dosis alta sin saber que tomé de una raíz de ginseng en te .cuando me acosté a dormir me subió la presión me dio pesadilla y cuando desperté tenía ese sonido en el cerebro creyendo que era en mi oídos y no tiene nada que ver con pérdida de audición como especulan es horrible
I hear the ringing no matter what. No amount of noise (or lack thereof) changes it in any way. It also varies wildly in "volume" and tone, and seems to be tied more to my stress levels than anything else. Sometimes it's a tinny high-pitched squeal, sometimes it sounds like one of those hearing-test tones, and sometimes it's barely noticeable and other times it almost drowns out everything briefly. And ever hearing test I've ever had demonstrates that I have no hearing loss at all.
Same. I have problems with anxiety, and I notice that when my anxiety level rises, so does the tinnitus - which causes my anxiety level to rise even higher - which causes more tinnitus ... which causes ... **sigh**
Same. I describe it to others as having a constant emergency broadcast test tones 24/7, but it definitely ebbs and flows with intensity, along with the occasional whooshing sound that I never realize is happening until the second it stops. So weird. Sucks too.
your symptoms are similar to mine except my hearing is just about gone. I think I mite have Meniere's disease. I bought the Neosensory buzz band system and it does nothing for me. $1,000.00 up in smoke.
This video gave me new hope. I've been dealing with severe tinnitus for 4 years now and it's been gradually getting worse. 😢 I've tried EVERYTHING and nothing seems to help. This video literally lifted my spirit because honestly, lately I've been feeling like checking out. I can't handle it anymore. But as a single father of 5, my duties here aren't done yet so I have to find the strength. Thank you! 🙏
@@earlnovero8208 How is getting tinnitus your fault? Mine was caused by someone coming into a rental while I was gone and swapping my eardrops out with straight up rubbing alcohol or something. Ear drops don't go bad in like 2-3 days. Not that drastically. I went through every ENT in the area and they neglected to help me correctly. I finally had to go to another hospital for help. I went just about every month to see an ENT and this has went on, with due diligence, for over 2yrs now. I tried to get help asap. You can't heal if a dr is neglectful in doing their job. Unless you constantly played music loud in your ear, with earpods, but that is possible, too.
Right, I have tinnitus and its a high pitch ear eeeeeee noise constantly, drives me up the wall some days and try not to think about it. Instead of them actually trying to find a way to fix this problem, they try to make all these devices and gadgets and claim they work for profit. Sure its nice that they are trying but if it doesn't work and they know it and have people lie on video and pay them to push the product in order to make a quick buck off the issue, like you said, its a scum bag move.
@@Zanforce I downloaded 2 noises from youtube. And run them together because so it wont worse tinnitus and it is really help. 1. White Noise Black Screen Sleep Study Focus 10 Hours 2. Ten Hours of Violet Noise - Ambient Sound - High Frequency
I got my tinnitus to almost no sound here’s how! 1. Cut out caffeine to sleep waaay better 2. Workout fees times a week 3. Reduce processed foods 4. Believe it will go away or subside 5. Don’t listen for it and know there are other medical situations that are worse 6. Ear plugs helped greatly also Just my two cents on how my situation has gotten better!
I struggled with tinnitus for years, the ringing in my ears never stopped. I tried all sorts of treatments and therapies, but nothing worked. Then I found a simple solution that didn’t require anything fancy. It worked almost immediately! The ringing got quieter, my stress lifted, and I finally felt some peace. I can't post it here but it's on my channel
I've had tinnitus for many years. People tell me to do things like meditation and relaxation techniques for me stress, but that's when it gets, or seems like the loudest. The only temporary fix I've had is going to the beach every week and hearing the ocean waves which is louder than my tinnitus but doesn't always cancel is out completely.
24 yrs on active duty and my tinnitus was so bad by the time I retired that I would get sudden dizzy spells or these flash migraines that would almost make me feel unbalanced but not quite vertigo. In 2022 the VA ran a number of tests on me and eventually issued me the Signia hearing aids. I wore them every single day, even when I was alone at home, and at first I felt as if everything was ‘way too’ loud and that itself annoyed me, but over time I guess my brain adopted and fast forward to today, I can’t go without them. On days I forget to put them on I do notice that my tinnitus isn’t as bad as it was before. So just a simple hearing aide is worth talking to your doctor about if you have severe or even just mild tinnitus that simply annoys you. Thankfully ya’lls tax dollars paid for my hearing aides so a BIG thanks to all tax payers :).
You're lucky. The VA denied my benefits and said I wasn't losing my hearing but I am and have been. Here we are now a year later and I think I've finally figured out why I passed the hearing test. Turns out I have this thing where I hear things like my alarm clock even after I've shut if off. It's annoying because I keep getting up to shut it off because my ears still "hear" it. I think the same thing hppened to me in that audio booth.
60% disabled with hearing loss and tinnitus, I will look into this. I tried a hearing aid but noise was so loud I would almost flitch at a car door shutting and loud places made me very uncomfortable.
The beauty of this device is that it’s ACTUALLY a foot in the door. It might not cure everyone right now, but it’s something the medical field can use to improve upon that can lead to better treatments and/or cures.
I have had tinnitus since I was in college. It started when I attended rock concerts and then into the military where I had no ear protection when firing small arms and being around jet engine noise. I am now 73 years old, but it has been something that I have delt with over these years. For me, the sound is similar to a forest full of crickets. The only thing that has worked for me has been white noise. I tune a radio to and off channel FM and run it in the bedroom as I go to sleep.
I also have the cricket thing with a high level solid tone at about 10khz as well.Mine was night clubs and military service mostly.I just learned to deal with it.Had it 30+ years.Keep well.
Yep, mine is like a forest with a billion crickets going off...or a very still day with rain drops hitting a still lake... Mine came on after scuba diving for a few years... I just deal with it. It is worse when I'm really tired... Listening to it as I type. Hey ho, don't remember being without it now 🙁
Rat Lips: I have the exact history with firearms and jet engines. I am also 73; we must have been in the same squadron! White noise is a go to sleep assist for me and I have used some type of sound device for years to assist sleep. Good luck with your recovery
Clinical trials by the manufacturer should be taken with a grain of salt. Also at no point does he say he is not being compensated by the company for this pretty obvious endorsement.
If the manufacturer does not pay to prove their product works, who is going to pay? Clinical trials are very expensive. Because of patent rights the only ones who are going to profit on the device are its developers.
@@polarbearhero9803he didn't say someone else should pay for them just that they should be taken with a grain of salt and they should be. Doctors have stopped recommending dozens upon dozens of drugs because after the data has trickled in (and long after the original manufacturer made its profits) and they found no positive impact coming from the medication.
I'm 45 and have Tinnitus since my mid 20s. If I could go completely deaf and it's guaranteed to stop the ringing, I'd do it right now. I've tried everything, eating right, exercising, no caffeine, even hearing aids even tho my hearing is great, sometimes listening to 7500Hz stops the ringing for a few seconds but it comes back louder than before but nothing helps, sleep sucks, trying to get to sleep, staying asleep, I'll start hearing the ringing in my dreams and it wakes me up. I talked to a few doctors and they basically told me "Suck it up and try to ignore it." kinda hard to ignore ringing in the head 24/7/365. Hopefully medical science can find a cure one day so people don't have to suffer with Tinnitus.
I worked on a flight line for 20 years. I was **religious** in my hearing protection (often doubled up) because I didn't want to spend the rest of my life with Tinnitus. Still got it. I'm hoping this device can help.
Snake oil. Watch for Dr. Susan Shores device. Developed over 13 years.Passed all of the required studies, waiting for paper to be published and FDA approval.
Tinnitus....SO many factors that affect when it happens and the severity! I've noticed work exposure to fan noise, HVAC or droning background noises can trigger mine. But the absolute worst and quickest way for me to have a bad episode is STRESS. I believe meditation, purposeful breathing exercises, stress relieving stretching and regular exercise is the best way to minimize tinnitus. Can't get rid of it but certainly has helped me tremendously.
Oh man the HVAC drone sends me into a spiral and I nearly pass out. May God bless you with a cure to resolve the root cause. Fasting has helped me in the past. It may be associated with inflammation in the endocrine system.

I used it exactly as specified and it made no difference to my Tinnitus. I would have thought Neuromod would have been more interested in contacting me and helping as much as possible to make the treatment successful. This wasn't the case either. It cost a lot of money for nothing.
@@recipehacker9752 it has been available in Europe for over a year….and be warned it was not impressive in results as this video stated. Only data on its effectiveness was released by neuromod….they used the tinnitus handicap index score as their criteria for improvement so any improved score was logged as a success….however that even means if an individual improved by one or two points it was logged as a successful improvement. Of course by analogy taking a pill for a headache that moved it from a 9 to a 8.5 not very good for a cost of 3500 dollars. Please do deep dive on the actual in depth analysis that are available before spending your money. Some individuals it really did help not saying that….but many experienced no improvement or only the slightest of margin improvement for a lot of money. Bottom line it’s a gamble….no guarantee of improvement with no money back if it does not work.
@@Andrew-pp2ql I appreciated your detailed response. I guess the product is too good to be true. If it were cheaper, I’d be worth a try. Stay well rested, hydrated, and otherwise healthy is all we have so far in the way of conservative treatment for this constant noise named Tinnitus.
@@recipehacker9752 perhaps at years end the American organizations offering Lenire may offer their own assessment after compiling data on its effectiveness (if Lenire would allow them to do so). Treble health is one of them and be nice if a better criterion could be established for whom this device would have a better chance to benefit vs those who would not. Unless such a thing happens it’s a buy first then see if it works shot in the dark. If your tinnitus is somatic (movement of neck or jaw muscles alter the tinnitus sound) I would certainly hold off until next year when the far more promising auricle device is released….aka Susan shores device. Take care
I’ve had mine since I can remember which is 3 years old. I even asked my mom what that sound was. I thought it was the sound of my thoughts and that everyone had it. It has NEVER bothered me until I found out not everyone had it. People could actually have complete silence!
I’ve gotten mine from the third Covid shot which is recent enough that I can still imagine what hearing silence feels like even if I cannot actually hear it anymore. It’s honestly kinda infuriating. :/
I have tinnitus for about 20 years now, recently I discovered that taking cold showers daily helps a lot - I'd say it at least halves the symptoms. It's might be hard to start doing this, but it might help You out too
I wouldn’t be surprised if it helps certain types of tinnitus. Cold showers release all sorts of neuroprotective chemicals and other chemicals responsible for affecting multiple parts of the brain and your nerves including circulation. I may give this a shot. I was already looking at trying them out just for the benefits.
This week there are 15 US clinicians who are meeting in Dublin Ireland for training by Lenier to prepare to start fitting this unique instrument in the USA. This five day training plus an online academy has been provided to these very high level professionals who have vast experience already. I am very pleased Dr. Cliff has brought awareness to this ground breaking new program. Thanks to Ross ONeill and Hubert Lim for their outstanding science based efforts.
So today was the last day of the five day event and now these 15 conditions are headed off homeward to the United States and we are going to be able to start dispensing these units around April 23. It’s interesting because we have already been informed that there are thousands of people who have registered for Internet to receive priority in our clinics across the country and we’re spending quite a bit of time this week. Creating a plan to handle so many thousands of people who want to try this amazing new bimodal tinnitus treatment. Definitely going to be a rush of people for this new method that has been again 12 years and they make him and has definite differences from previous treatments.
Let's hope it lives up to the excitement and hype and truly helps without any symptoms or added discomfort. Optimistic but cautious. Metabolic drivers of Tinnitus are NOT easy to fix. I imagine 15 is a good start but not a lot for as many folks as there are in the USA!
I remember first hearing it while lying in bed when I was six years old. It went away briefly, but then came back and has been with me ever since. It's loud - bells of St. Mary's loud, and it really interferes with my ability to process speech. It's like having an obnoxious kid constantly beating pots and pans next to your head (try doing that while engaging in polite conversation, delivering a speech, trying to sleep...). I've tried all the snake oil and acupressure methods. I've spoken to specialists. They run lots of expensive tests but have no idea how to fix it. I'd try to fix it myself with ice picks, but I'm assured it won't make it go away. At 62, I'm pretty sure this is going to be with me till I die. Something to look forward to.
80-90% of individuals naturally habituate to tinnitus without the use of any device costing thousands of dollars. That usually happens within 12-18 months naturally. So when Lenire says that the vast majority of people experience benefit of using this device 12 months later, how many of them would have habituated regardless of the device? How does Lenire measure "improvement"? How much of it is placebo? The Lenire device has been available in Ireland, Germany and other European countries for years now. Funny I haven't heard that Tinnitus has been eradicated in these countries. Many audiologists are excited about this because it is a new mode of income...I guess it is buyer beware.
The skepticism is appreciated. However, the cynicism called the authenticity of your skepticism into question. I think we should alway question if something is legit or not, but always assuming a profit motive over a noble motive is rather cynical. Audiologists have had access to limited tinnitus treatment options for our patients, and many of us just want a solution that helps them. Time will tell if this treatment moves the needle, but to many people are killing themselves for us not to try.

Thanks for sharing this video doctor Aud, I've been suffering with tinnitus for 15 years unfortunately in my left ear. It's affected so many things and even slowed me down a little bit with my time management, because of how distracting it is. I just want this bad dream to come to an end, and be able to get my life back on track with peace of mind 🙏✝️
I'm only two weeks into having tinnitus in my left ear. The first week or so was suicidal inducing, so loud and constant anxiety. I have since noticed some lowering in the volume and it is even forgettable at times. Luckily this occurred as a result of an assault and brain injury by a adolescent psych patient where I work. So it's being covered under workers compensation, my doctor upon learning I have ADHD prescribed me Ritalin, and despite my initial fear of using it I found that it does indeed help with the perception of the loudness. I've also been prescribed gabapentin and thus far it's been able to help lower both the perception and loudness. I'm hopeful that this device is capable of being able to eliminate this issue. Though I fear that I'm going to just have to try my best to habituate, if I may ask, have you been able to habituate after having it so long.?
@@colinkillian9265 I've had it for over 25 years. You kind of forget about it unless you intentionally pay attention. Quiet rooms are murder so I always fall asleep watching mindless UA-cam videos.
@@brianbagnall3029 Man, yeah, I have this since, idk, I never really remember not having this so I'm used to it, it is not even problem in quiet rooms, I can sleep or learn with that, still I kinda don't like it
my tinnitus really beats by stress- free lifestyle..when i'm starting to over think and get stress, it hits the brain to start ringing til it be like a taking off plane or cruise ship sounds to lost my hearing. Then, i discover relaxation, diversion of mind to other good things and adopt irritable sounds into calm mind. I think, when the brain got stressed it starts ringing of ears because they are connected. Thanks Doc.
@@thejimmy6533 Have a proper diet then , to nourish ur brain cells ..especially if ur tinnitus is in ur Brain.. Neuroplasticity Have a good diet with Anti inflammatory things + the food rich in vitamins and proteins .. prevent from consuming things containing sodium Have a sound therapy for 15-20 minutes everyday eat non veg more than veg do exercises with high intensity and definitely ur tinnitus will get reduced ..

I was an Audio Engineer. I used to have extraordinary hearing with a range up to 22Khz and extreme sesitivity, I could hear better than dogs. I could hear sounds nobody else could and it amazed my frends many times. This was until I was in my mid thirties when my tinnnitus started. My older sibling warned me that I might get it since she already had it. It started intermittantly in both ears. It drove me crazy and with time became more cnas more constant.. Now in My fifties It is constant. I have good hearing but not the extraordinary hearing I had. I was not aware that that the medical community was aware of the true cause. ThisLenire system is worth investigating as you have nothing but time to lose. What concerns me this seems like a paid as since he uses the phrase "Lenire by Neuromod" many times,
My tinnitus gets triggered when I work on kick drums for a long period of time. I used to spend hours layering and processing kick drums (as well as other sounds).
Oh my god, I would really really love this... My tinnitus has become absolutely unbelievable recently. I'm only 22 years old and I stay awake at night crying and staring at the ceiling because this high pitched ringing drives me insane. I can't sleep or hear myself think. Some nights I just want to bang my head against the wall. I really, really hope this will soon become available for everyone. It sounds like a dream to be able to perceive silence again.
@@AmorilV I found that when my tinnitus gets super bad at night and I can't sleep, if I play upbeat music throughout the night in my headphones I usually wake up to it not being as bad. I can't play it very loud or else it'll hurt more but it's a temporary solution for now. I've also tried a few exercises I've found online like tapping the back of your head and tugging on your ears, but it's very temporary.
Hi people. I feel for you. My tinnitus came during the pandemic and I was in extreme stress when I got it. At first it was low and I was wondering what it was. But since anxiety is a disease my brain fixated on that ringing and the rest is history. I struggled for many months fighting the noise. My recommendation is to do whatever helps. I didn’t take meds but I probably should have. Talk to your doc. If the tinnitus is causing anxiety the anxiety has to be addressed. That’s issue number one. It’s not the tinnitus it’s the reaction to the noise. Imaging being next to a loud fan. After a couple of minutes your brain would tune it out because it doesn’t perceive it as a threat. However if your brain thought that fan noise was a problem which is what anxiety does then it would start worrying about that fan. There’s two different things I’ve tried. One if masking. Finding anything that will help you sleep. For me if I didn’t sleep well it cause more anxiety. Sleep was where my battles were and continue to be. You can try going to insight timer and doing different mediations, or using their white noises or their tinnitus retaining tones with the beeping noises. Those helped me much early on. Or buy a loud fan, water foundation, run a podcast to listen to or listen to music all night. Bottom line is that once you find anything that works you’ll feel so much better and will regain some of your control. The second option once you’re sleeping and living with it with masking is trying to lean into it. Listening to it and allowing your brain to see it’s not so dangerous so far. I worked with Dr. Gans and she helped me reminding me tinnitus is a paper tiger. It can’t harm us. It’s our interpretation of the noise that we have to deal with. So if you go to sleep with nothing in silence eventually you may be able to not need masking. I’ve done that before but I’m trying now to work my way back. Also try to do things you enjoy. Going out and talking with other people for me helped since my brain would be engaged.
@@Thelastmeccadid you get any of the cov*d shots by chance? They are causing an adverse event of severe tinnutis in ppl and for those who had mild tinnutis before the shots, it's made it way worse. Inflammation in the spinal cord and brain is what caused it. Stanford and mayo clinic have been studying all this. One of the cov*d manufacturers makers had it happwn to himself and has been very vocal about it. Please use a non censored search engine to research like bing. And please look into the tms treatments that are curing ppl!!
I'm a 26 year old mix engineer and get occasional tinnitus where my hearing in either ear goes out and I get a ringing in my ear for 10-30 seconds. Happens a couple times a week. Definitely scary, but it's comforting knowing there are treatments like this coming out should it ever get worse! Best of luck to you
@@andrew14145 thanks I bit of advice I can give you is. Plug your ears, at least after the sound check. Have confidence in your sound check and you really shouldn't need the full range of your ears after that. Cheers and good luck.
I relate with you completely. I do audio mixing in ministry and find myself questioning my mixes now and have secondary source to double chick my final mixes to ensure I'm not missing anything...or adding anything that shouldn't be there. Scary.
@@danaelston9848 hi Dana, thats sound engineering to a T. We all question our mixes, I know I do and that was b4 the tinnitus 🤔😂 But be confident. You're obviously doing something right. Otherwise you wouldn't be a sound engineer!
People worry about the noise floor in recordings and such.I am very into good stereo home audio and have chronic tinnitus,so those worrying about the so called "noise floor" should try living with this.I still enjoy music despite this.Cheers to you too.
Just wanted to say thank you Dr. Cliff for sharing this information. There are so many people out here that are suffering from this debilitating mental torture. I have had this high pitched eeeeeeeeeee for over a year now and you are exactly right it is not in the ears. It is in the brain. I have learned to habituate to this to the best of my ability . Masking sounds and distractions to keep me busy has been the best remedy so far. Winding down and getting a good night's rest and sleep has been the most challenging thing so far. Anyways, so glad to hear of there being a possible cure. This is exciting! Thanks again for sharing. All the best to you and yours.
I’ve had debilitating tinnitus now for 5 years. (Tinnitus overall for many years prior). I’m really hoping this device can bring it down to a tolerable level so I and so many others who suffer have a shot at really enjoying life again. This is amazing news , especially coming on the heels of FX-322 going bust. Thank you for all you do, Doc. Stay strong everyone and take care.
@@Moon_dinosaurs Mine came on after a NBA Playoff game that was extremely loud. It has been over 20 years of head ringing. I has gotten worse because I love to play the guitar. I have not given it up, although I use ear plugs. When I go see live music use plugs. I would say it is at the shitty mode in my case. Some days it is terrible. Good luck
@@rz5206sorry for delay. I already tinnitus for 3 years prior but it was completely manageable… one pitch … low volume … hardly noticed. I’d say I was completely habituated after having that 1 year. Then 5 years ago unfortunately went to a hospital for a bout of endocarditis … and even though I made them aware of my tinnitus … they inadvertently gave me Gentamicin. One of the most notorious drugs for causing hearing loss and tinnitus. My tinnitus went from unnoticeable to catastrophic… multiple pitches , oscillating pitches , loud volumes , constant vertigo , hyperacusis…. and it’s been there ever since. No reprieve.
I had my ear wax sucked out at a place highly rated on Yelp yesterday by a physician assist (P.A.) was looking into these binocular looking things to see what the camera was seeing. I had so much wax in my left ear and a wax meatball in my right. The P.A. had the tools with the little camera on the end. The My left ear was so blocked it was like I had an earplug and the tinnitus was pretty loud. My right was mild white noise. Now I hear so good out of my ears. I don’t hear tinnitus in my left ear now. I hear very little in my right ear now. The better you hear and notice outside sounds, the less the tinnitus is heard. It seems like I had a temporary wax caused big increase in tinnitus. Way better now. As a side entertaining story, I once had a moth fly into my ear and get stuck. I went to the E.R. to take it out. The Dr. Took out a wax meatball with a moth for desert, lol. No joke he was going to leave me with a couple moth legs still in my ear. I was like I don’t want bug legs in there. So he took them out too.
I hadn’t realized it was in the brain. My solution to deal with it has been to go away in my head. When going to sleep I get involved in an interesting daydream so I’m not focusing on the “noise” in my ears which feels deafening if I focus on it. I was just sitting here unaware of the ringing but soon as I finished your video I can hear it pushing in again.
I've had Tinnitus since I was a little kid and growing up to work in the fire service has only served to make it worse while simultaneously increasing my hearing loss. Any treatment for Tinnitus would be amazing.
Try taking 1000mg a day of magnesium gluconate. Magnesium has shown to dramatically reduce tinnitus in some patients, including myself. It may take a few days before you notice a difference, but try it for about 2 weeks to see if it works for you. Magnesium gluconate gives the best result of all the types of magnesium.
@@RacerX888yes you need to be very careful with which type of magnesium you’re taking and really should be discussed with your doctor prior to treatment. Some magnesium supplements can cause diarrhea as some are used for constipation.
My personal experience is this: At first i pretended that my tinnitus was my ability ti hear special universal sounds that nobody else could hear. After that I trained myself to ignore it and not being bothered by it. That's how I live, ignoring it and never getting upset with it. Things that make it worse are: taking a daytime nap, red wine, stress. This new device sounds promising. I will surely try it.
Same here. You have to tell yourself this or you will go insane, but it overpowers my mind at times. Especially when I'm sleep deprived and stressed out. Hoping this really can help. I'd be happy with just half the level of ringing I experience. It started at age 16 and I'll be forty in August
@@NellyEIEI mine began after a nasty JAB in the AF in 1990. If I had it before then, IDK but only recall it after that shot and it's gotten progressively worse as my hearing has diminished. Seems they are directly improportional as far as I can tell. Right now, as I type this it's maddeningly loud in my head. I can distinguish 3 different types of noise within the umbrella of Tinnitus and that doesn't include the common random occurence of popping and cracking that has an electrical sound, like a static charge does when you zap yourself in the winter.
Only thing that works for me is taking shower head and run warm/hot water at back of my head, thats spot where problem suppose to lie,part of brain responsible for phantom noise. Do it in the morning for up to 1 min and I'm fine for rest of a day. If it comes back repeat it. I have it just few months and discovered it just now. Mix it with neck streaching every day proper posture through the day and proper cussion for sleeping and posture while sitting at desk, no bending neck while using mobile and i dropped earphones as i suspected it started after everyday use of it/and night .Some shoulders light weight lifting as well. Hope it will help to someone
I've been following this company for a few years now and I was able to get on the waiting list for when the doctor's here in the USA are trained with this treatment. I can't wait.
@@martyr4844 I was on their mailing list for updates and automatically got an email to be put on the list Try going on the website and signing up for the newsletter. There may be a spot to get on the waiting list on that.
I suffer from tinnitus very similar to yourself high pitch ringing but in both ears. So I'm really looking forward to hearing just how effective it is, when you trial this method.
Dr. Cliff- I'll be following your story! Thank you for the investigative and research work into this condition, and possible treatments like this. Please keep us updated on your experimental journey with this device!
The question is what's the culprit of this annoying hissing /ringing?? Cell phones!?, poisoningThrough food sources that have chemical additives !? Alcoholic drinks!? Exposure to Microwave ovens? Many possibilities! but we are being exposed to something causing this problem.. .
I am 43 years old, and have always had this as far as I can remember.. and it does sound exactly like a forest of cicadas. Sometimes it gets extremely loud, sometimes it will ring very strongly in only one ear for a moment then gradually fade back to both ears. I do not know what it must be like for others who do not hear this as well…it is what I am use to. If there isn’t a fan or something running as I am trying to fall asleep, I just focus on the ringing in my ears and soon fall fast to sleep..
omg that is exactly what I hear too, a forest of cicadas..most of the time I thought of it as soothing until it started to be a little louder and now I can notice that only I can hear it :(
I worked in car audio for 10 years. I wore hearing protection all day. The only time I took it off was when I actually needed to listen to the system, and even then I kept the volume down as much as I could. My hearing was quite good until I got COVID. Now I have quite a bit of tinnitus...
Interesting. I hadn’t corollated it with with Covid, but It’s been noticeable since around the time I got Covid. And I’ve only got 5% of my sense of smell nearly 1.5 years later from Covid.. … 😢
@@ibsn87mine started with Covid too. During the sickness it was a loud buzzing that came in throbbing waves and after I got well it just left the ringing.
In the Uk i recently saw my ENT about my T, (and also a few months ago), had a chat with a 'specialist' and asked if there's anyone close/anything promising in terms of a cure/treatment and on both occasions they flat out said no nothing is close... then you search YT and find things like this device, and also the Susan Shore device which both sound promising. Why don't they mention this stuff? This is their world, they should be up to date with whats happening in the audiology community.
Skeptical. I’ve had since my first chemo treatment. 17 years later, severity up and down. Until one morning, heard 2 seconds of imagined tea kettle whistle, stopped tinnitus in left ear ALL DAY. Woke up next morning, it was back. I believe there is a physical component.
I’m going on 15 years of tinnitus. Had a similar experience one night sitting on my couch about two years ago but mine was more of a popping noise and then silence. Woke up the next day and my ears were ringing again and have been since. Weird
@@joshuawileczek6215was it scary when it went silent? I think I would actually be nervous at first if my tinnitus went away for at least a while although I pray one one day it does.
I wasn’t nervous, I was actually thrilled because I thought it went away which would have been life changing, but it returned very shortly after. Pretty surreal experience after so many years of constant ringing tho
Given that the measurement had to be based on self-report, do you think part of the positive result is placebo effect? Or were they able to create a double-blind study with a control group that didn't actually get the therapy?
I have a variety of tinnitus sound, I can break it down in 3 main sounds; the highest one is that high pitch iiiiii from an old television turning on, the middle is the worst, with the sound of a waterfall, and the dark tone is like a huge diesel enginge far away from you at idle rpm.
It just became available in my area and I was so excited. Sadly it is $4,000 out of pocket and not covered by insurance which puts it well out of my ability to get it 😢. I'm sure this will be the case for many people.
I'm 76 and tinninitis started when I was 16. It comes and goes and I've noticed that when I'm talking to people I don't hear it but as soon as it gets quiet it starts. I've basically resigned myself and at times I can ignore it.
Thank you Dr. Cliff for sharing this. I work in construction and I've had severe tinnitus for the last two years. This is really good news. I'm from Kenya and I'm hoping they can make Lenire available in my country too.
In some cases tinnitus occurs because of tension in the neck, throat, jaw, upper back and chest. It’s worth trying to stretch the muscles and see if there is a change in frequency if so you know what the cause is.
I can make my tinnitus much louder by tensing my neck, but the frequency does not change that much. do you know if that's any indication that it's bc of tension?
@@tefkah Well I cant tell for sure and I don’t want to make promises however in some cases it could be muscle tension. Muscle tension can create all sorts of problems like double chin, lazy eyes, joint issues, x/o legs, scoliosis, uneven hip, hammer toes, hollow back, text neck, vision problems and so on. The main concept here is that one muscle group is to far stretched and the other to shortened. If you can make it louder it’s worth investigating further and see if a consistent stretching routine of these areas make a difference, because it could be an indication of the myotatic reflex, which could create tension in that specific area. Its also worth noting that stretching improves blood circulation, which is needed for regeneration purposes.
I grew up on an Arabian Horse farm with critters of many sizes. With that comes guns, it's a common thing protecting the farm and as a farm girl - it was fun to learn about guns and shoot them! :) Sadly when firing off a hand gun my right ear went into silence mode for about two days. After that it was fine and back to normal. Sadly I'm a little older now and I hear a rustling sound in the right ear. It's like a snare drum with light sand being lightly poured onto the surface of the drum skin. This comes and goes and sometimes I found certain sounds can calm it down. I have found what helps calm this down is to insert an ear plug into my right ear for a couple days, sleeping with it as well. And after that it's fine. I've learned to keep volumes down as well, due to my LOVING to listen to music with earbuds and headphones. I'm scared I have damage to my ear as my hearing is good. I hear from both ears fine - but the right ear does worry me after that loud pop sound from the gun. I don't want to lose my hearing, but fear it's too late and as I get older I'll simply lose it all in the right ear :( /sadPanda
For anyone that's curious, this device that helps with tinnitus costs anywhere between $3500-$5000. They do not accept any medical insurance plans. I know because I've asked. I guess for people that have this kind of money lying around, then yes this is wonderful news. For those of us who can't afford this device, it is very frustrating to say the least. Hopefully in the near future, something will come out that can be affordable to anyone.
Very encouraging! Mine started a couple years ago after oral surgery. I am scheduled for hearing test and visit with ENT and will ask about this. Sign me up! Thanks to your videos I understand why it’s worse on quiet Saturdays at home-I work in an environment with white noise M-F, but that’s where I sometimes have a hard time hearing people. Tinnitus is quite a puzzle.
Mine got extremely bad after an implant operation on my jaw. I did have tinnitus before that I think from earwax & anxiety. But after the operation it was really bad & so was my anxiety. I had 3 years of hell, with the anxiety symptoms & roaring tinnitus, it brought me to tears many times. I’m kind of handling it better now, hearing aids help.. but I crave silence 😢
Mine started after surgery too! Woke up with high pitched sushing in my ears. Got worse after Covid. And now worse after a stupidly loud concert. But yes. It all started with surgery. I’ve been told it was possible the anesthesia
My tinnitus came on about twenty years ago when I was put on a beta blocker for tachycardia. I had an operation to improve it but the tablets left me with a ringing, hissing noise that has gradually got louder over the years. I now have some hearing loss too. I hope this new technology will help along with any others that are being developed but I fear they will be very expensive and stop many people from being able to benefit. I do find exercise helps as others have mentioned, and de stressing, and eating a low sugar diet. If I don’t do these things it gets worse. But going to the gym has helped, and I’ve learnt to live with it and accept it which I think you have to do, don’t fight it just try to stay calm. I’m in the UK so it probably won’t come here for ages yet as we seem to be behind the US on new medical procedures.
@@HERbotanicaboutique when I read the side effects of the tablets I was on it said consult your doctor if you get ringing in the ears. I mentioned this to my doctor and she looked at me blankly and didn’t seem to know about it. Most doctors don’t seem to be that interested in the side effect that drugs can cause you. I’m pretty sure that’s what caused mine, as it only started after I’d been on the tablets for several years. I find paracetamol and any pain killers make it worse, and if I’m not well with a bad cold or virus it gets worse. I’ve read pulsatile tinnitus can be caused by lack of iron, but you probably already know this. Also B12 can help as it’s beneficial to the nervous system. I have tried B12, but didn’t notice an improvement, but I might try it again. Hope you find something that helps.
I developed classical 8000Hz tinnitus about two years ago. Hoping my local otologist office will offer the Lenire tinnitus treatment from Neuromod and that it will significantly reduce tinnitus symptoms without the use of hearing aids. I'm 64 and have normal high end hearing loss (I hear well to about 12KHz), so I'm more interested in relieving the constant 8000Hz ringing than using hearing aids at this point in my life. If this helps it would be a godsend until maybe one day this condition can be better understood.
@@Lrasm13sadly my local otologist isn't participating in any trials of this methodology. The nearest one is too far from me. I still hope that if it does work and has a good benefit that more will adopt it.
I've had Tinnitus since shortly getting out of the Navy as a Radioman. I spent eight years with headphones on and under multiple speakers blaring one sound or another and sleeping under an air vent outlet. There were also many other loud noises while deployed and my ears never got any rest. And now I have hearing loss as well and the VA gave me hearing aids. I can hear better, but this whooshing, buzzing noise is in both ears and most of the time the sounds I hear are different in both ears and sometimes wakes me up and I think a truck has hit the building. I really hope the Lenire, when it comes out, will have a positive effect. Thank you.
If you have had any of the cov*d shots, please be aware they can cause tinnutis or if you already had it before the shots, they can make it much more severe. It's an adverse event. They are studying it currently at Stanford and mayo clinic. They are also finding that tms treatments are helping people reduce their symptoms greatly!
I've had tinnitus for over 40 years but now it's so loud it's keeping me awake. It's almost unbearable at times! I hope I can find and be able to afford this type of treatment! 😭🙏
Heard about linocane injections helping. Also apple cider vinegar diluted in water 20 :1 poured in ear left in a minute lie on side can reduce sound dramatically.tapping finger behind ear helps
Meditation and listening to Ajahn Brahm or Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche helped me so much. I think meditation helps getting in that “let it be” mentality and being able to focus more on what I’m doing at the moment. Also noticing my breath throughout the day gives me another thing to relax and something to have some awareness or the current moment.
@@horaciogomez4368 it did not really work after 4 months, I took about 6 weeks off and I thought what the heck I paid a lot of money for the device so I thought why not try it again, I will see how it goes🙏
It seemed to help for a few days on and off for the 3 months I tried it, but no I am back to still having tinnitus, I have been trying it again, but it is not helping
Just found your site. My tinnitus of decades has recently been getting much worse...to the point now of mild panic at what lies ahead for me. Frankly, I quit looking for resolution of the problem. Thanks for some hope!
Have you been vacc*nated w/ any of the cov*d shots by chance? They found a link between the shots & causing tinnutis. For people who already had it before the shots, the shots have made their tinnutis way worse. Doctors are studying the link/cause at Stanford, Harford, mayo clinic etc..they are pretty sure the C shots induce inflammation in the spinal cord, brain, and ears, causing the adverse event in some people. My mom is suffering severely and she never had tonnutis before the shots. Her specialists have told us it was caused by them, and for her to not get any more boosters. The more boosters you get, the worse the tinnutis can get. There's a man who was In his 60s who had the adverse event happen, causing horrible tinmutis, & he couldn't handle the mental trauma from it being so bad, and he unalived himself. I'm spreading the word bc my mom has expressed If hers doesn't get better that she can't handle this much longer. We learned that TMS treatments are helping people greatly reduce their symptoms and even cure It That's the next step for my mom. You can research all this yourself. I suggest you do If you have gotten any of the shots. If you havnt, I'm sorry, I know tinnutis can also be caused by hearing loss and it can be genetic. But yeah, don't search on Google, make sure you use bing search engine or a search engine that is not highly Censored.
I’m not an Audiologist, but as a Hearing Instrument Specialist I am intrigued about the prospective effectiveness of this new technology. I have a mild hearing loss that is not considered treatable with hearing aids nor it it enough loss to cause communication issues yet I have moderate tinnitus constantly. Admittedly I have tried all the “snake oil” treatments out of desperation to no avail even though I knew better beforehand.
I wonder if the VA will make this type of therapy available to veterans with hearing loss/tinnitus. Thanks for the heads up Dr. Cliff. BTW, I have had terrible tinnitus since returning from Vietnam in 1969. I guess with all the problems I could have from Agent Orange maybe I'm just lucky to still be around to have it...
@@daveguilbault614 Good luck. The VA told me decades ago my hearing loss/Tinnitus was not service related and neither were the two bouts I've had with cancer related to Agent Orange exposure. Perhaps the VA's attitude towards Vietnam vets has changed.
When you going to the VA hospital you’re going to have to insist they provide you with one of these devices because you have rights to proper treatment for your tinnitus other than the one that perhaps they want to offer you. These items are on contract with the VA and you have every right to have access to them but you are gonna have to try to insist they provide it to you.
Very interesting. I am 100% deaf in my left ear. 50% deaf in my right ear. Also I’m tone deaf as well. I cannot hear high pitch sounds at all. I’ve had tinnitus for as long as I can remember. Constant buzzing sound. I’ve just become immune to it in my daily activities. It’s only when I stop or find myself in a quiet place that it is noticeable. All of that being said. I would defiantly like to not have it at all. Unfortunately I’d probably fall into the category of the folks who can’t be helped. I appreciate the video and I hope this is legit so people can get the help they need. Thank you!
What about the method of tapping on the back of your head? I've got occasional tinnitus, that works. (There's a UA-cam video somewhere.) A method I figured out based on Ramachandran's phantom limb mirror therapy. I developed something like this first for twitchy eyes. Basically you feed information from the non-twitching or non-tinnitus side to the problem side. You do this with your fore fingers (most sensitive) from the problem side by lightly rubbing the quiet side of your head. Works like this. Ringing in your right ear. Using the fingers of your right hand you gently rub just in front of your left ear. My tinnitus almost immediately goes away. (For a twitchy eye rub gently just to the outside of eye.) The mechanism I think is similar to Ramachandran's phantom limb: the brain readily overrides what is (usually) a very low signal causing the problem. If both ears are ringing doing the sides alternately seems to also work. I used to get a twitchy eye from dirt, crusties, fatigue. I would usually treat this by washing my face and eyes or taking a nap. When I tried either of my two methods the twitching went away and didn't come back -- so my eyes were still dirty or tired. This led me to speculate that the signals for ringing and twitchy are very weak. Whatever reason caused your eye to twitch, the reason it keeps twitching is because it was twitching. It's a feedback loop. Try this, if you think you might injure yourself or cause a problem you're doing it wrong. The reason no medical corporation is interested in any of this is they can't charge you for it. And I'm not a doctor, not qualified in any way.
Not holding my breath. I get different tones (a very high pitched tone at the moment) in both years, about the last year. Quickly increasing hearing loss is genetic in my dad's family starting when we're about 40. Throw in that I grew up around guns and no one thought about hearing protection 30 years ago, loud music/bass as a teenager, inner ear issues as an adult, I'm not surprised by the outcome. ENT told me to simply get use to it, it comes with hearing loss and there's nothing to be done about it. This self reported clinical trial seems iffy to me, another thing to overcharge for that may or may not work for some people and the cost will probably be high. I've found the best defense against tinnitus is to stay busy. If my mind is really occupied, I don't really notice it. If I slow down or things get quiet, it's deafening.
Doctor Cliff: Have you tried this device? If you suffer from tinnitus I would think you would have tried this device and then offered a follow up video on your progress.
What a great video! I've had tinnitus since childhood. It always begins with a total lack of sound in one or both ears. Lately, it is more often, and when it stops, I still have a significantly reduced or total lack of sound. I would love to give this treatment a go. I have this hearing loss, but loud environments cause incredible ear and head pain, so hearing aids may not be the answer. I already tried them twice with Virtego as a result. Anyway, I'm looking forward to my appointment with you next month. You give me hope.
This tinnitus is horrible especially for those of us who have good hearing, therefore for me its not related to hearing loss (checked recently with no hearing loss at 65)It is really annoying because I happen to be one of those people who cannot tolerate noise such as vacuum cleaners, fans, even a car idling can be annoying, but when you have this thing in your head and cannot get rid of it. I do however, find that I am worse when I am stressed. I will be off to the audiologist shortly to see if there is anything that will help (as I run out of time at my last appointment. I meant to add that I am very sensitive to noise.
I got tinnitus after J&J shot. Very loud, have taken various supplements which other videos indicated might help. I still have it, but it does occasionally subside. Wonder if this device will help since I'm convinced my tinnitus is a shot side-effect
I got tinnitus like 3 years ago on right ear. Over time it did get slightly better but it is still there. I got it while being on anti-biotics. Yes anti-biotics, I wish I knew that before taking them for like a week with like 1000 mg daily dosages. Anyways, hopefully this can trick the brain from letting go of the fantom noise, i.e. what the anti-biotics did of course is kill the hairs in the cochlea especially the once that stimulate high pitch sounds
I've had severe tinnitus for 20 or more years and wow, I have tried about 20 different things to help and every single one of them accomplished exactly zero. It is clearly incurable, not treatable and nothing at all works for it. It amazes me that people still pretend this new NEW treatment definitely works. Ridiculous, predatory.
This sounds like the same sort of treatment (device) used on a woman with vertigo in the book "The Brain that Changes Itself" by Norman Doidge M.D. It was invented by Paul Bach-y-Rita.
Tinnitus impedes hearing by raising the noise floor. This is like trying to listen to a distant AM radio station in your car radio and driving under a power line that emits radio interference. In the case of tinnitus, the noise is phantom nerve noise.
After looking at reviews of Lenire, It doesn’t seem to work as well as people hoped. Susan Shores Michigan Tinnitus Device seems to be much more likely.
And how Do you know this is true? Sorry, but you sound like someone that works for her but believe me I wish it was true. I wish Susan all the success because we need a cure. We don’t care where it comes from. We need it now when you have an extreme tinnitus, it’s debilitating it disabled the person from having a normal life ruins, their relationships, their financial situation, etc. etc. this is no joke to the people that have mild Tinnitus would not understand this but the thing is they don’t realize their mile Tinnitus, at any time can turn into a nightmare Tinnitus, and destroy their good life as they once knew it
@@colinkillian9265 as someone who had what I came to call “simple tinnitus” (single tone , eventually no impact on life , easy to habituate to over time) and now having catastrophic , debilitating tinnitus (been 5 years and I still cannot habituate to it, at all) trust me … habituation is directly correlated to the severity of the condition. Some people stub their toe at night, and some people have compound fractures. Some people have bleeding gums, and some people have full blown abscesses. Some people have slight angina , and some people suffer a myocardial infarction. Just like every other medical condition on earth … it depends on severity, and tinnitus is no different.
@@joeylodes I'll pray for you, in no way am I trying to be condescending, I just find that there are personality types who resist the idea of Habituation. Fear drives this condition, you'll eventually find a measurement of peace with your tinnitus..
@@joeylodes I suffered my condition about a month ago due to an assault at work, as I work with mental health inpatient adolescents. So perhaps that is why my tinnitus was easier to deal with, medical costs and treatment are covered and I'm being taken care of financially. When it first started it was like a damn siren in my ear and caused such anxiety i sincerely considered suicide. Now after a few weeks I have spikes and I find that the anxiety has lessoned. Oddly enough, my physician is very sympathetic, and when I explained that it's so difficult to take my mind off of the ringing, because of my ADHD, he began treating my ADHD with Ritalin. It definitely gave me more focus to distract myself and help with the eventual habituation. He also prescribed a medication called Gabapentin and that's definitely helped to calm my nerves as well. I have prescription for valium but I refuse to take it more than once a day at most, and only when I've tried to sleep with every coping skill I can muster. I'm a deeply religious Catholic and I find that praying helps especially the rosery..I do hope you find peace..
I just got the Lenire device from my audiologist and started treatment with it. It is expensive and insurance doesn’t cover any of it. I’m staying optimistic that when I get to the 12 week point I will finally have some relief from my tinnitus.
@@opruimdienst9679 I just started the treatment. I was told it is for 12 weeks which will take the treatment to about the beginning of November. I’m hopeful and staying optimistic!!!
Using my indispensable Vita Mix blender daily for years and my beloved dogs high pitched bark may have caused my tinnitus. Unfortunately I didn’t realize it until I developed the problem. Now I use noise suppression head phones. I have also suspected using the microwave several times daily in close proximity to where I work in the kitchen may have also played a role. I feel for the folks that have it worse than I do. It usually only bothers me at night when I’m trying to fall asleep. I usually listen to a podcast to distract me and I can then fall asleep. I wish everyone good luck researching a cure.
Dr. Cliff, I am extremely excited to hear this. I have very bad tinnitus and have been very depressed over no treatment for it. I know that some people have tinnitus as a result of natural hearing loss. However, I suffered physical damage from a diving accident do you know how many of the people treated successfully had physical damage? Just curious.
I’m going to chime in here in the hopes of helping you have hope. The physical damage has long since healed so the only reason the tinnitus continues is because the brain has created neural pathways and those pathways can be changed bc of brain plasticity which is what Lanier is doing. Also Look into the biopsychosocial cause and treatment of tinnitus.
My tinnitus is a constant whooshing noise / constant white noise and it all came about since contracting covid 19 . I've been given hearing aids - they haven't helped - I can't wait to see if the treatment worked for you🤞🙏❤ 🇬🇧
I reduce my tinnitus by running more. After few days of running my tinnitus decreased. I also start eating more fruit and veggies. Less meat. I do meditation every other day. and my tinnitus is gone. Keeping your mind busy in different activities helps too. Hope this can work for some of you.
Keeping your mind buddy???
how long time that u have tinnitus before it's gone ?
@@niku7236 I start working on my tinnitus for 6 months. I start by making different ear exercises that I saw in you tube. Then I start jogging and exercising. Drinking fruit and veggies juices. I stop drinking coffee.
Your tinnitus might be simple tinnitus. Some people have permanent. I got one with 4 years.
@@bijaysubba162how can you tell what type it is? Mine is only in one ear, and it’s very low pitched and I only hear it from external sources.
Tinnitus is crippling sometimes. Prayerfully this will aid everyone who has posted here and provide much needed relief. Thank you Doc!

I hear the ringing no matter what. No amount of noise (or lack thereof) changes it in any way. It also varies wildly in "volume" and tone, and seems to be tied more to my stress levels than anything else. Sometimes it's a tinny high-pitched squeal, sometimes it sounds like one of those hearing-test tones, and sometimes it's barely noticeable and other times it almost drowns out everything briefly.
And ever hearing test I've ever had demonstrates that I have no hearing loss at all.
Same
Same. I have problems with anxiety, and I notice that when my anxiety level rises, so does the tinnitus - which causes my anxiety level to rise even higher - which causes more tinnitus ... which causes ... **sigh**
Same. I describe it to others as having a constant emergency broadcast test tones 24/7, but it definitely ebbs and flows with intensity, along with the occasional whooshing sound that I never realize is happening until the second it stops. So weird. Sucks too.
Same☹️
your symptoms are similar to mine except my hearing is just about gone. I think I mite have Meniere's disease. I bought the Neosensory buzz band system and it does nothing for me. $1,000.00 up in smoke.
This video gave me new hope. I've been dealing with severe tinnitus for 4 years now and it's been gradually getting worse. 😢 I've tried EVERYTHING and nothing seems to help. This video literally lifted my spirit because honestly, lately I've been feeling like checking out. I can't handle it anymore. But as a single father of 5, my duties here aren't done yet so I have to find the strength. Thank you! 🙏

I have tinnitus for 26 years now. I can’t take it anymore. I want to sleep in silence… just for once 😢
@@earlnovero8208 How is getting tinnitus your fault? Mine was caused by someone coming into a rental while I was gone and swapping my eardrops out with straight up rubbing alcohol or something. Ear drops don't go bad in like 2-3 days. Not that drastically.
I went through every ENT in the area and they neglected to help me correctly. I finally had to go to another hospital for help. I went just about every month to see an ENT and this has went on, with due diligence, for over 2yrs now. I tried to get help asap. You can't heal if a dr is neglectful in doing their job. Unless you constantly played music loud in your ear, with earpods, but that is possible, too.
Great video, I had problems with tinnitus since college, but thankfully to Shirlest I found a way out of this !

Right, I have tinnitus and its a high pitch ear eeeeeee noise constantly, drives me up the wall some days and try not to think about it.
Instead of them actually trying to find a way to fix this problem, they try to make all these devices and gadgets and claim they work for profit.
Sure its nice that they are trying but if it doesn't work and they know it and have people lie on video and pay them to push the product in order to make a quick buck off the issue, like you said, its a scum bag move.
I highly doubt it! non refundable...
@@Zanforce I downloaded 2 noises from youtube. And run them together because so it wont worse tinnitus and it is really help. 1. White Noise Black Screen Sleep Study Focus 10 Hours 2. Ten Hours of Violet Noise - Ambient Sound - High Frequency
@@HS-vr7cq Actually violet noise does kind of bring the pitch down for a bit thanks.
Other one makes it get worse but violet helps thanks.
Running the TV or a radio at low volume all night relieves my tinnitus greatly.
I got my tinnitus to almost no sound here’s how!
1. Cut out caffeine to sleep waaay better
2. Workout fees times a week
3. Reduce processed foods
4. Believe it will go away or subside
5. Don’t listen for it and know there are other medical situations that are worse
6. Ear plugs helped greatly also
Just my two cents on how my situation has gotten better!
Please answer man how do the earplugs help if they make it easier to hear it.
Wise
#5 has been helping me a lot lately. Great list.
I struggled with tinnitus for years, the ringing in my ears never stopped. I tried all sorts of treatments and therapies, but nothing worked. Then I found a simple solution that didn’t require anything fancy. It worked almost immediately! The ringing got quieter, my stress lifted, and I finally felt some peace. I can't post it here but it's on my channel

Ur a monster
I've had tinnitus for many years. People tell me to do things like meditation and relaxation techniques for me stress, but that's when it gets, or seems like the loudest. The only temporary fix I've had is going to the beach every week and hearing the ocean waves which is louder than my tinnitus but doesn't always cancel is out completely.
24 yrs on active duty and my tinnitus was so bad by the time I retired that I would get sudden dizzy spells or these flash migraines that would almost make me feel unbalanced but not quite vertigo. In 2022 the VA ran a number of tests on me and eventually issued me the Signia hearing aids. I wore them every single day, even when I was alone at home, and at first I felt as if everything was ‘way too’ loud and that itself annoyed me, but over time I guess my brain adopted and fast forward to today, I can’t go without them. On days I forget to put them on I do notice that my tinnitus isn’t as bad as it was before. So just a simple hearing aide is worth talking to your doctor about if you have severe or even just mild tinnitus that simply annoys you. Thankfully ya’lls tax dollars paid for my hearing aides so a BIG thanks to all tax payers :).
You're lucky. The VA denied my benefits and said I wasn't losing my hearing but I am and have been. Here we are now a year later and I think I've finally figured out why I passed the hearing test. Turns out I have this thing where I hear things like my alarm clock even after I've shut if off. It's annoying because I keep getting up to shut it off because my ears still "hear" it. I think the same thing hppened to me in that audio booth.
60% disabled with hearing loss and tinnitus, I will look into this. I tried a hearing aid but noise was so loud I would almost flitch at a car door shutting and loud places made me very uncomfortable.
Hearing aides ought to be free for all who need them.
The beauty of this device is that it’s ACTUALLY a foot in the door. It might not cure everyone right now, but it’s something the medical field can use to improve upon that can lead to better treatments and/or cures.
You actually trust the medical or ICal establishment,ents to do the right thing vs in it to make money. Better yet they won’t do anything.
I have had tinnitus since I was in college. It started when I attended rock concerts and then into the military where I had no ear protection when firing small arms and being around jet engine noise. I am now 73 years old, but it has been something that I have delt with over these years. For me, the sound is similar to a forest full of crickets. The only thing that has worked for me has been white noise. I tune a radio to and off channel FM and run it in the bedroom as I go to sleep.
I also have the cricket thing with a high level solid tone at about 10khz as well.Mine was night clubs and military service mostly.I just learned to deal with it.Had it 30+ years.Keep well.
Yep, mine is like a forest with a billion crickets going off...or a very still day with rain drops hitting a still lake... Mine came on after scuba diving for a few years... I just deal with it. It is worse when I'm really tired... Listening to it as I type. Hey ho, don't remember being without it now 🙁
Affirmative, for me it is chimes or audio books by a specific person who's voice works for me to get relaxed and sleep.
Ditto :(
Rat Lips: I have the exact history with firearms and jet engines. I am also 73; we must have been in the same squadron! White noise is a go to sleep assist for me and I have used some type of sound device for years to assist sleep. Good luck with your recovery
As a tinnitus "victim" for the over 50 years with relentless aggression lately, I so look forward to trying this!!! YEAH!
Have you tried this
No, no yet. Lenire is not available in Canada right now.@@nipinraj1
Any update?
No. The jury id out on this after several months in the field. Failures seem to outnumber successes so I'm waiting.@@justsomeguy6336
Did this work?
Clinical trials by the manufacturer should be taken with a grain of salt. Also at no point does he say he is not being compensated by the company for this pretty obvious endorsement.
I’ve read some horror stories on Reddit.
If the manufacturer does not pay to prove their product works, who is going to pay? Clinical trials are very expensive. Because of patent rights the only ones who are going to profit on the device are its developers.
@@polarbearhero9803he didn't say someone else should pay for them just that they should be taken with a grain of salt and they should be. Doctors have stopped recommending dozens upon dozens of drugs because after the data has trickled in (and long after the original manufacturer made its profits) and they found no positive impact coming from the medication.
I'm 45 and have Tinnitus since my mid 20s. If I could go completely deaf and it's guaranteed to stop the ringing, I'd do it right now. I've tried everything, eating right, exercising, no caffeine, even hearing aids even tho my hearing is great, sometimes listening to 7500Hz stops the ringing for a few seconds but it comes back louder than before but nothing helps, sleep sucks, trying to get to sleep, staying asleep, I'll start hearing the ringing in my dreams and it wakes me up. I talked to a few doctors and they basically told me "Suck it up and try to ignore it." kinda hard to ignore ringing in the head 24/7/365. Hopefully medical science can find a cure one day so people don't have to suffer with Tinnitus.
I worked on a flight line for 20 years. I was **religious** in my hearing protection (often doubled up) because I didn't want to spend the rest of my life with Tinnitus. Still got it. I'm hoping this device can help.
Same here. Only 8 years on the flightline.
Snake oil. Watch for Dr. Susan Shores device. Developed over 13 years.Passed all of the required studies, waiting for paper to be published and FDA approval.
Same, helicopters- 12 years 🙄
Audiologist told me you can still get even if you use ear protection as sound waves still travel down the mastoid process, great...
@@markbalancehealth "your tinnitus is not service related". . . >
Tinnitus....SO many factors that affect when it happens and the severity! I've noticed work exposure to fan noise, HVAC or droning background noises can trigger mine. But the absolute worst and quickest way for me to have a bad episode is STRESS. I believe meditation, purposeful breathing exercises, stress relieving stretching and regular exercise is the best way to minimize tinnitus. Can't get rid of it but certainly has helped me tremendously.
Oh man the HVAC drone sends me into a spiral and I nearly pass out. May God bless you with a cure to resolve the root cause. Fasting has helped me in the past. It may be associated with inflammation in the endocrine system.

I used it exactly as specified and it made no difference to my Tinnitus. I would have thought Neuromod would have been more interested in contacting me and helping as much as possible to make the treatment successful. This wasn't the case either. It cost a lot of money for nothing.
Now how is that possible? it apparently is not even available yet. Do you mind elaborating? Thnx
@@recipehacker9752it’s been available in Europe for quite some time, the user experiences have not been very good contrary to the company’s claims
@@recipehacker9752 it has been available in Europe for over a year….and be warned it was not impressive in results as this video stated. Only data on its effectiveness was released by neuromod….they used the tinnitus handicap index score as their criteria for improvement so any improved score was logged as a success….however that even means if an individual improved by one or two points it was logged as a successful improvement. Of course by analogy taking a pill for a headache that moved it from a 9 to a 8.5 not very good for a cost of 3500 dollars. Please do deep dive on the actual in depth analysis that are available before spending your money. Some individuals it really did help not saying that….but many experienced no improvement or only the slightest of margin improvement for a lot of money. Bottom line it’s a gamble….no guarantee of improvement with no money back if it does not work.
@@Andrew-pp2ql I appreciated your detailed response. I guess the product is too good to be true. If it were cheaper, I’d be worth a try. Stay well rested, hydrated, and otherwise healthy is all we have so far in the way of conservative treatment for this constant noise named Tinnitus.
@@recipehacker9752 perhaps at years end the American organizations offering Lenire may offer their own assessment after compiling data on its effectiveness (if Lenire would allow them to do so). Treble health is one of them and be nice if a better criterion could be established for whom this device would have a better chance to benefit vs those who would not. Unless such a thing happens it’s a buy first then see if it works shot in the dark. If your tinnitus is somatic (movement of neck or jaw muscles alter the tinnitus sound) I would certainly hold off until next year when the far more promising auricle device is released….aka Susan shores device. Take care
I’ve had mine since I can remember which is 3 years old. I even asked my mom what that sound was. I thought it was the sound of my thoughts and that everyone had it. It has NEVER bothered me until I found out not everyone had it. People could actually have complete silence!
I'm the same. For the longest time, I thought it was basically just TV static for the ears.
I’ve gotten mine from the third Covid shot which is recent enough that I can still imagine what hearing silence feels like even if I cannot actually hear it anymore. It’s honestly kinda infuriating. :/
@@ThePC007 sorry to hear that. Yeah I heard thats one of the side effects of the shot. Mine might have gotten worse because of it.
Same here! Ignorance was bliss for me.
@@wonderwoman4875 Exactly!
I have tinnitus for about 20 years now, recently I discovered that taking cold showers daily helps a lot - I'd say it at least halves the symptoms. It's might be hard to start doing this, but it might help You out too
I wouldn’t be surprised if it helps certain types of tinnitus. Cold showers release all sorts of neuroprotective chemicals and other chemicals responsible for affecting multiple parts of the brain and your nerves including circulation. I may give this a shot. I was already looking at trying them out just for the benefits.
It's because of the sound of water.
no it’s because it makes the blood rush
I found out that if I stopped taking showers for months, the tinnitus goes away completely. I haven't showered in years and it works!
@@ahndeux your tinnitus didn't go away.. your friends did.
This week there are 15 US clinicians who are meeting in Dublin Ireland for training by Lenier to prepare to start fitting this unique instrument in the USA. This five day training plus an online academy has been provided to these very high level professionals who have vast experience already. I am very pleased Dr. Cliff has brought awareness to this ground breaking new program. Thanks to Ross ONeill and Hubert Lim for their outstanding science based efforts.
So today was the last day of the five day event and now these 15 conditions are headed off homeward to the United States and we are going to be able to start dispensing these units around April 23. It’s interesting because we have already been informed that there are thousands of people who have registered for Internet to receive priority in our clinics across the country and we’re spending quite a bit of time this week. Creating a plan to handle so many thousands of people who want to try this amazing new bimodal tinnitus treatment. Definitely going to be a rush of people for this new method that has been again 12 years and they make him and has definite differences from previous treatments.
Can you tell me where to find the list of the 15 doctors? I’d like to add myself to the waiting list. Thank you for the information!
@@tomir2012 it will be posted soon on their site
@@tomir2012 yes me to please
Let's hope it lives up to the excitement and hype and truly helps without any symptoms or added discomfort. Optimistic but cautious. Metabolic drivers of Tinnitus are NOT easy to fix. I imagine 15 is a good start but not a lot for as many folks as there are in the USA!
I remember first hearing it while lying in bed when I was six years old. It went away briefly, but then came back and has been with me ever since. It's loud - bells of St. Mary's loud, and it really interferes with my ability to process speech. It's like having an obnoxious kid constantly beating pots and pans next to your head (try doing that while engaging in polite conversation, delivering a speech, trying to sleep...). I've tried all the snake oil and acupressure methods. I've spoken to specialists. They run lots of expensive tests but have no idea how to fix it. I'd try to fix it myself with ice picks, but I'm assured it won't make it go away. At 62, I'm pretty sure this is going to be with me till I die. Something to look forward to.
I'm in the same boat, 21 here and I'm almost sure it's not coming back, it's been 12 days with it and it's gonna be a long road ahead of me
Yes
Aww, I hope it gets better 😢
80-90% of individuals naturally habituate to tinnitus without the use of any device costing thousands of dollars. That usually happens within 12-18 months naturally. So when Lenire says that the vast majority of people experience benefit of using this device 12 months later, how many of them would have habituated regardless of the device? How does Lenire measure "improvement"? How much of it is placebo? The Lenire device has been available in Ireland, Germany and other European countries for years now. Funny I haven't heard that Tinnitus has been eradicated in these countries. Many audiologists are excited about this because it is a new mode of income...I guess it is buyer beware.
The skepticism is appreciated. However, the cynicism called the authenticity of your skepticism into question. I think we should alway question if something is legit or not, but always assuming a profit motive over a noble motive is rather cynical. Audiologists have had access to limited tinnitus treatment options for our patients, and many of us just want a solution that helps them. Time will tell if this treatment moves the needle, but to many people are killing themselves for us not to try.
How much does the Lenire device cost and have you heard of any positive long term results?

Thanks for sharing this video doctor Aud, I've been suffering with tinnitus for 15 years unfortunately in my left ear. It's affected so many things and even slowed me down a little bit with my time management, because of how distracting it is.
I just want this bad dream to come to an end, and be able to get my life back on track with peace of mind 🙏✝️
I'm only two weeks into having tinnitus in my left ear. The first week or so was suicidal inducing, so loud and constant anxiety. I have since noticed some lowering in the volume and it is even forgettable at times. Luckily this occurred as a result of an assault and brain injury by a adolescent psych patient where I work. So it's being covered under workers compensation, my doctor upon learning I have ADHD prescribed me Ritalin, and despite my initial fear of using it I found that it does indeed help with the perception of the loudness. I've also been prescribed gabapentin and thus far it's been able to help lower both the perception and loudness. I'm hopeful that this device is capable of being able to eliminate this issue. Though I fear that I'm going to just have to try my best to habituate, if I may ask, have you been able to habituate after having it so long.?
@@colinkillian9265 I've had it for over 25 years. You kind of forget about it unless you intentionally pay attention. Quiet rooms are murder so I always fall asleep watching mindless UA-cam videos.
I hear ya only 7 years for me & my right ear. Hate it…
@@brianbagnall3029 Man, yeah, I have this since, idk, I never really remember not having this so I'm used to it, it is not even problem in quiet rooms, I can sleep or learn with that, still I kinda don't like it
Ok
my tinnitus really beats by stress- free lifestyle..when i'm starting to over think and get stress, it hits the brain to start ringing til it be like a taking off plane or cruise ship sounds to lost my hearing. Then, i discover relaxation, diversion of mind to other good things and adopt irritable sounds into calm mind. I think, when the brain got stressed it starts ringing of ears because they are connected. Thanks Doc.
Me too when I’m stresssed it gets worse I don’t really mind waking up to it when I’m happy
I’ve had tinnitus my whole life. Only recently I’ve started to get more aware of it. It’d be pretty cool if it was quieter.
Same here. Over 50 years for me, and the ringing is in my brain, not my ears.
@@thejimmy6533 Have a proper diet then , to nourish ur brain cells ..especially if ur tinnitus is in ur Brain..

@@Ideal_Lightning007 you know this from experience?
@@jnorb8633 Yeah
I was an Audio Engineer. I used to have extraordinary hearing with a range up to 22Khz and extreme sesitivity, I could hear better than dogs. I could hear sounds nobody else could and it amazed my frends many times. This was until I was in my mid thirties when my tinnnitus started. My older sibling warned me that I might get it since she already had it. It started intermittantly in both ears. It drove me crazy and with time became more cnas more constant.. Now in My fifties It is constant. I have good hearing but not the extraordinary hearing I had.
I was not aware that that the medical community was aware of the true cause.
ThisLenire system is worth investigating as you have nothing but time to lose. What concerns me this seems like a paid as since he uses the phrase "Lenire by Neuromod" many times,
Hey, have you already tried the GABA treatment? I've heard from another neuro-specialized doctor that it helps in many cases.
Lenire was approved the FDA , it’s true I am waiting until my audiologists start offering the device
My tinnitus gets triggered when I work on kick drums for a long period of time. I used to spend hours layering and processing kick drums (as well as other sounds).
So the Lenire system is free?
@@hemtet5500 I don’t believe is free
Oh my god, I would really really love this... My tinnitus has become absolutely unbelievable recently. I'm only 22 years old and I stay awake at night crying and staring at the ceiling because this high pitched ringing drives me insane. I can't sleep or hear myself think. Some nights I just want to bang my head against the wall. I really, really hope this will soon become available for everyone. It sounds like a dream to be able to perceive silence again.
omg, exactly the same for me as well. Have you found anything to help?
@@AmorilV I found that when my tinnitus gets super bad at night and I can't sleep, if I play upbeat music throughout the night in my headphones I usually wake up to it not being as bad. I can't play it very loud or else it'll hurt more but it's a temporary solution for now. I've also tried a few exercises I've found online like tapping the back of your head and tugging on your ears, but it's very temporary.
@@novadearesti got tinnitus 4 days back now i am thinking to give up on my life pls give me some hope
Hi people. I feel for you. My tinnitus came during the pandemic and I was in extreme stress when I got it. At first it was low and I was wondering what it was. But since anxiety is a disease my brain fixated on that ringing and the rest is history. I struggled for many months fighting the noise.
My recommendation is to do whatever helps. I didn’t take meds but I probably should have. Talk to your doc.
If the tinnitus is causing anxiety the anxiety has to be addressed. That’s issue number one. It’s not the tinnitus it’s the reaction to the noise. Imaging being next to a loud fan. After a couple of minutes your brain would tune it out because it doesn’t perceive it as a threat.
However if your brain thought that fan noise was a problem which is what anxiety does then it would start worrying about that fan.
There’s two different things I’ve tried.
One if masking. Finding anything that will help you sleep. For me if I didn’t sleep well it cause more anxiety. Sleep was where my battles were and continue to be. You can try going to insight timer and doing different mediations, or using their white noises or their tinnitus retaining tones with the beeping noises. Those helped me much early on. Or buy a loud fan, water foundation, run a podcast to listen to or listen to music all night. Bottom line is that once you find anything that works you’ll feel so much better and will regain some of your control.
The second option once you’re sleeping and living with it with masking is trying to lean into it. Listening to it and allowing your brain to see it’s not so dangerous so far. I worked with Dr. Gans and she helped me reminding me tinnitus is a paper tiger. It can’t harm us. It’s our interpretation of the noise that we have to deal with. So if you go to sleep with nothing in silence eventually you may be able to not need masking. I’ve done that before but I’m trying now to work my way back.
Also try to do things you enjoy. Going out and talking with other people for me helped since my brain would be engaged.
@@Thelastmeccadid you get any of the cov*d shots by chance? They are causing an adverse event of severe tinnutis in ppl and for those who had mild tinnutis before the shots, it's made it way worse. Inflammation in the spinal cord and brain is what caused it. Stanford and mayo clinic have been studying all this. One of the cov*d manufacturers makers had it happwn to himself and has been very vocal about it. Please use a non censored search engine to research like bing.

As a sound engineer I really need this.
I'm so afraid my tinnitus will get worse with work and it's pretty loud now.

I'm a 26 year old mix engineer and get occasional tinnitus where my hearing in either ear goes out and I get a ringing in my ear for 10-30 seconds. Happens a couple times a week. Definitely scary, but it's comforting knowing there are treatments like this coming out should it ever get worse! Best of luck to you
@@andrew14145 thanks
I bit of advice I can give you is. Plug your ears, at least after the sound check. Have confidence in your sound check and you really shouldn't need the full range of your ears after that.
Cheers and good luck.
I relate with you completely. I do audio mixing in ministry and find myself questioning my mixes now and have secondary source to double chick my final mixes to ensure I'm not missing anything...or adding anything that shouldn't be there. Scary.
@@danaelston9848 hi Dana, thats sound engineering to a T.
We all question our mixes, I know I do and that was b4 the tinnitus 🤔😂
But be confident. You're obviously doing something right. Otherwise you wouldn't be a sound engineer!
People worry about the noise floor in recordings and such.I am very into good stereo home audio and have chronic tinnitus,so those worrying about the so called "noise floor" should try living with this.I still enjoy music despite this.Cheers to you too.
Just wanted to say thank you Dr. Cliff for sharing this information. There are so many people out here that are suffering from this debilitating mental torture. I have had this high pitched eeeeeeeeeee for over a year now and you are exactly right it is not in the ears. It is in the brain. I have learned to habituate to this to the best of my ability . Masking sounds and distractions to keep me busy has been the best remedy so far. Winding down and getting a good night's rest and sleep has been the most challenging thing so far. Anyways, so glad to hear of there being a possible cure. This is exciting! Thanks again for sharing. All the best to you and yours.

Yes
@@rz5206sorry for delay. I already tinnitus for 3 years prior but it was completely manageable… one pitch … low volume … hardly noticed. I’d say I was completely habituated after having that 1 year. Then 5 years ago unfortunately went to a hospital for a bout of endocarditis … and even though I made them aware of my tinnitus … they inadvertently gave me Gentamicin. One of the most notorious drugs for causing hearing loss and tinnitus. My tinnitus went from unnoticeable to catastrophic… multiple pitches , oscillating pitches , loud volumes , constant vertigo , hyperacusis…. and it’s been there ever since. No reprieve.
I had my ear wax sucked out at a place highly rated on Yelp yesterday by a physician assist (P.A.) was looking into these binocular looking things to see what the camera was seeing. I had so much wax in my left ear and a wax meatball in my right. The P.A. had the tools with the little camera on the end. The My left ear was so blocked it was like I had an earplug and the tinnitus was pretty loud. My right was mild white noise. Now I hear so good out of my ears. I don’t hear tinnitus in my left ear now. I hear very little in my right ear now. The better you hear and notice outside sounds, the less the tinnitus is heard. It seems like I had a temporary wax caused big increase in tinnitus. Way better now. As a side entertaining story, I once had a moth fly into my ear and get stuck. I went to the E.R. to take it out. The Dr. Took out a wax meatball with a moth for desert, lol. No joke he was going to leave me with a couple moth legs still in my ear. I was like I don’t want bug legs in there. So he took them out too.
I hadn’t realized it was in the brain. My solution to deal with it has been to go away in my head. When going to sleep I get involved in an interesting daydream so I’m not focusing on the “noise” in my ears which feels deafening if I focus on it.
I was just sitting here unaware of the ringing but soon as I finished your video I can hear it pushing in again.
Tinnitus is awful - you don’t feel quite “with it” all the time. Hope this continues to be successfully as a valid treatment.
I've had Tinnitus since I was a little kid and growing up to work in the fire service has only served to make it worse while simultaneously increasing my hearing loss. Any treatment for Tinnitus would be amazing.
Try taking 1000mg a day of magnesium gluconate. Magnesium has shown to dramatically reduce tinnitus in some patients, including myself. It may take a few days before you notice a difference, but try it for about 2 weeks to see if it works for you. Magnesium gluconate gives the best result of all the types of magnesium.
@@RacerX888yes you need to be very careful with which type of magnesium you’re taking and really should be discussed with your doctor prior to treatment. Some magnesium supplements can cause diarrhea as some are used for constipation.

Thank you for the information. How did you get tinnitus?

The Tinnitus Club.. 30+ years dealing with this agonizing sound/tone.. wishing the best outcome/cure for all in the near future..
My personal experience is this: At first i pretended that my tinnitus was my ability ti hear special universal sounds that nobody else could hear. After that I trained myself to ignore it and not being bothered by it. That's how I live, ignoring it and never getting upset with it. Things that make it worse are: taking a daytime nap, red wine, stress.
This new device sounds promising. I will surely try it.
LOL I told myself the same thing!!! Too funny :)
Same here. You have to tell yourself this or you will go insane, but it overpowers my mind at times. Especially when I'm sleep deprived and stressed out. Hoping this really can help. I'd be happy with just half the level of ringing I experience. It started at age 16 and I'll be forty in August
@@NellyEIEI try to sleep well, very important ! Also learn to meditate, it seems to help if you do it every day. And avoid junk food. Best wishes.
@@NellyEIEI mine began after a nasty JAB in the AF in 1990. If I had it before then, IDK but only recall it after that shot and it's gotten progressively worse as my hearing has diminished. Seems they are directly improportional as far as I can tell. Right now, as I type this it's maddeningly loud in my head. I can distinguish 3 different types of noise within the umbrella of Tinnitus and that doesn't include the common random occurence of popping and cracking that has an electrical sound, like a static charge does when you zap yourself in the winter.
Yes same.
Only thing that works for me is taking shower head and run warm/hot water at back of my head, thats spot where problem suppose to lie,part of brain responsible for phantom noise. Do it in the morning for up to 1 min and I'm fine for rest of a day. If it comes back repeat it. I have it just few months and discovered it just now. Mix it with neck streaching every day proper posture through the day and proper cussion for sleeping and posture while sitting at desk, no bending neck while using mobile and i dropped earphones as i suspected it started after everyday use of it/and night .Some shoulders light weight lifting as well. Hope it will help to someone

Dude, listening to your voice and what you are saying to us, reduced my tinnitus
Sweet, you're in luck...I've got over 1,000 videos.
The question is what's the culprit of this annoying hissing /ringing??
Cell phones!?, poisoningThrough food sources that have chemical additives !? Alcoholic drinks!? Exposure to Microwave ovens? Many possibilities!
but we are being exposed to something causing this problem.. .

Keep me posted if you get this treatment
Do you have problems whit your temporolmanbular joint?
Any updates ? I hope you are doing better now
I am 43 years old, and have always had this as far as I can remember.. and it does sound exactly like a forest of cicadas. Sometimes it gets extremely loud, sometimes it will ring very strongly in only one ear for a moment then gradually fade back to both ears. I do not know what it must be like for others who do not hear this as well…it is what I am use to. If there isn’t a fan or something running as I am trying to fall asleep, I just focus on the ringing in my ears and soon fall fast to sleep..
omg that is exactly what I hear too, a forest of cicadas..most of the time I thought of it as soothing until it started to be a little louder and now I can notice that only I can hear it :(
I worked in car audio for 10 years. I wore hearing protection all day. The only time I took it off was when I actually needed to listen to the system, and even then I kept the volume down as much as I could. My hearing was quite good until I got COVID. Now I have quite a bit of tinnitus...
I with you….long term affects never studied. Som of the videos I watch show trying to remove toxins in the body.
Interesting. I hadn’t corollated it with with Covid, but It’s been noticeable since around the time I got Covid. And I’ve only got 5% of my sense of smell nearly 1.5 years later from Covid.. … 😢
@@ibsn87mine started with Covid too. During the sickness it was a loud buzzing that came in throbbing waves and after I got well it just left the ringing.
My second dose of phaezar vaccine 💉 for COVID 18 I start having this tinnitus …What a coincidence I didn’t have it before and it triggered it
In the Uk i recently saw my ENT about my T, (and also a few months ago), had a chat with a 'specialist' and asked if there's anyone close/anything promising in terms of a cure/treatment and on both occasions they flat out said no nothing is close... then you search YT and find things like this device, and also the Susan Shore device which both sound promising. Why don't they mention this stuff? This is their world, they should be up to date with whats happening in the audiology community.
Skeptical. I’ve had since my first chemo treatment. 17 years later, severity up and down. Until one morning, heard 2 seconds of imagined tea kettle whistle, stopped tinnitus in left ear ALL DAY. Woke up next morning, it was back. I believe there is a physical component.
I bet it also how your Brain processes stuff.
I’m going on 15 years of tinnitus. Had a similar experience one night sitting on my couch about two years ago but mine was more of a popping noise and then silence. Woke up the next day and my ears were ringing again and have been since. Weird
@@joshuawileczek6215was it scary when it went silent? I think I would actually be nervous at first if my tinnitus went away for at least a while although I pray one one day it does.
I wasn’t nervous, I was actually thrilled because I thought it went away which would have been life changing, but it returned very shortly after. Pretty surreal experience after so many years of constant ringing tho
@@jaysquared9638 on the positive if it’s possible for it to stop for even a short period then it is possible to go away.
Given that the measurement had to be based on self-report, do you think part of the positive result is placebo effect? Or were they able to create a double-blind study with a control group that didn't actually get the therapy?
There was no placebo control. The study and device is a sham.
Placebo effect always plays a part in every health related study. Always.
@@Swearengen1980 That may be true, but properly designed clinical tests will sort out how much of an effect can be attributed to the placebo.
Ok
Cool
This looks like a sales pitch, and it uses the same exact (copyrighted) material from the Lenire company. Highly suspicious. What is your cut, doc?
I don't trust anyone unless they can say they have Tinnitus with an i..
I'm praying for something. I can't get away from it and it's starting to drive me mad. Sometimes death seems like it will be better
I have a variety of tinnitus sound, I can break it down in 3 main sounds; the highest one is that high pitch iiiiii from an old television turning on, the middle is the worst, with the sound of a waterfall, and the dark tone is like a huge diesel enginge far away from you at idle rpm.
Thanks for this- I have terrible tinnitus
It just became available in my area and I was so excited. Sadly it is $4,000 out of pocket and not covered by insurance which puts it well out of my ability to get it 😢. I'm sure this will be the case for many people.
Sounds good but I don't like the lack of mentioning how many participants were in the trail, what age and severity, race, gender etc.
I'm 76 and tinninitis started when I was 16. It comes and goes and I've noticed that when I'm talking to people I don't hear it but as soon as it gets quiet it starts. I've basically resigned myself and at times I can ignore it.
Was it difficult to deal with it all your life or does it get better with time?
I predict Neuromod will eventually be sued for fraud
Why is that?
Doesn't work very well for Tinnitus patients @@candyhull6870
Thank you Dr. Cliff for sharing this. I work in construction and I've had severe tinnitus for the last two years. This is really good news. I'm from Kenya and I'm hoping they can make Lenire available in my country too.
In kenya too
In some cases tinnitus occurs because of tension in the neck, throat, jaw, upper back and chest. It’s worth trying to stretch the muscles and see if there is a change in frequency if so you know what the cause is.
I can make my tinnitus much louder by tensing my neck, but the frequency does not change that much. do you know if that's any indication that it's bc of tension?
@@tefkah Well I cant tell for sure and I don’t want to make promises however in some cases it could be muscle tension. Muscle tension can create all sorts of problems like double chin, lazy eyes, joint issues, x/o legs, scoliosis, uneven hip, hammer toes, hollow back, text neck, vision problems and so on. The main concept here is that one muscle group is to far stretched and the other to shortened. If you can make it louder it’s worth investigating further and see if a consistent stretching routine of these areas make a difference, because it could be an indication of the myotatic reflex, which could create tension in that specific area. Its also worth noting that stretching improves blood circulation, which is needed for regeneration purposes.
I grew up on an Arabian Horse farm with critters of many sizes. With that comes guns, it's a common thing protecting the farm and as a farm girl - it was fun to learn about guns and shoot them! :) Sadly when firing off a hand gun my right ear went into silence mode for about two days. After that it was fine and back to normal. Sadly I'm a little older now and I hear a rustling sound in the right ear. It's like a snare drum with light sand being lightly poured onto the surface of the drum skin. This comes and goes and sometimes I found certain sounds can calm it down. I have found what helps calm this down is to insert an ear plug into my right ear for a couple days, sleeping with it as well. And after that it's fine. I've learned to keep volumes down as well, due to my LOVING to listen to music with earbuds and headphones. I'm scared I have damage to my ear as my hearing is good. I hear from both ears fine - but the right ear does worry me after that loud pop sound from the gun. I don't want to lose my hearing, but fear it's too late and as I get older I'll simply lose it all in the right ear :( /sadPanda
For anyone that's curious, this device that helps with tinnitus costs anywhere between $3500-$5000. They do not accept any medical insurance plans. I know because I've asked. I guess for people that have this kind of money lying around, then yes this is wonderful news. For those of us who can't afford this device, it is very frustrating to say the least. Hopefully in the near future, something will come out that can be affordable to anyone.
Very encouraging! Mine started a couple years ago after oral surgery. I am scheduled for hearing test and visit with ENT and will ask about this. Sign me up! Thanks to your videos I understand why it’s worse on quiet Saturdays at home-I work in an environment with white noise M-F, but that’s where I sometimes have a hard time hearing people. Tinnitus is quite a puzzle.
Can you share what your ENT says if your comfortable sharing? I also got tinnitus recently and it's very annoying
Ent are usually garbage
Mine got extremely bad after an implant operation on my jaw. I did have tinnitus before that I think from earwax & anxiety. But after the operation it was really bad & so was my anxiety. I had 3 years of hell, with the anxiety symptoms & roaring tinnitus, it brought me to tears many times. I’m kind of handling it better now, hearing aids help.. but I crave silence 😢
Mine started after surgery too! Woke up with high pitched sushing in my ears. Got worse after Covid. And now worse after a stupidly loud concert. But yes. It all started with surgery. I’ve been told it was possible the anesthesia
Ok
My tinnitus came on about twenty years ago when I was put on a beta blocker for tachycardia. I had an operation to improve it but the tablets left me with a ringing, hissing noise that has gradually got louder over the years. I now have some hearing loss too. I hope this new technology will help along with any others that are being developed but I fear they will be very expensive and stop many people from being able to benefit. I do find exercise helps as others have mentioned, and de stressing, and eating a low sugar diet. If I don’t do these things it gets worse. But going to the gym has helped, and I’ve learnt to live with it and accept it which I think you have to do, don’t fight it just try to stay calm. I’m in the UK so it probably won’t come here for ages yet as we seem to be behind the US on new medical procedures.
I wonder if that’s what caused mine. I was on a beta blocker for years for tachycardia. I now have pulsatile tinnitus.
@@HERbotanicaboutique when I read the side effects of the tablets I was on it said consult your doctor if you get ringing in the ears. I mentioned this to my doctor and she looked at me blankly and didn’t seem to know about it. Most doctors don’t seem to be that interested in the side effect that drugs can cause you. I’m pretty sure that’s what caused mine, as it only started after I’d been on the tablets for several years. I find paracetamol and any pain killers make it worse, and if I’m not well with a bad cold or virus it gets worse. I’ve read pulsatile tinnitus can be caused by lack of iron, but you probably already know this. Also B12 can help as it’s beneficial to the nervous system. I have tried B12, but didn’t notice an improvement, but I might try it again. Hope you find something that helps.
I developed classical 8000Hz tinnitus about two years ago. Hoping my local otologist office will offer the Lenire tinnitus treatment from Neuromod and that it will significantly reduce tinnitus symptoms without the use of hearing aids. I'm 64 and have normal high end hearing loss (I hear well to about 12KHz), so I'm more interested in relieving the constant 8000Hz ringing than using hearing aids at this point in my life. If this helps it would be a godsend until maybe one day this condition can be better understood.
You're the only person beside me I heard that from .. most people never investigate volume and khz .. making me think theirs isn't super high as mine
@@Lrasm13sadly my local otologist isn't participating in any trials of this methodology. The nearest one is too far from me. I still hope that if it does work and has a good benefit that more will adopt it.
I've had Tinnitus since shortly getting out of the Navy as a Radioman. I spent eight years with headphones on and under multiple speakers blaring one sound or another and sleeping under an air vent outlet. There were also many other loud noises while deployed and my ears never got any rest. And now I have hearing loss as well and the VA gave me hearing aids. I can hear better, but this whooshing, buzzing noise is in both ears and most of the time the sounds I hear are different in both ears and sometimes wakes me up and I think a truck has hit the building. I really hope the Lenire, when it comes out, will have a positive effect. Thank you.
If you have had any of the cov*d shots, please be aware they can cause tinnutis or if you already had it before the shots, they can make it much more severe. It's an adverse event. They are studying it currently at Stanford and mayo clinic. They are also finding that tms treatments are helping people reduce their symptoms greatly!
6 weeks into treatment with the device and zero improvement. Not the slightest. I wish I could say otherwise.
Make a UA-cam video to document your treatment. The word needs to get out, whatever the results.
I've had tinnitus for over 40 years but now it's so loud it's keeping me awake. It's almost unbearable at times! I hope I can find and be able to afford this type of treatment! 😭🙏
Heard about linocane injections helping. Also apple cider vinegar diluted in water 20 :1 poured in ear left in a minute lie on side can reduce sound dramatically.tapping finger behind ear helps

Meditation and listening to Ajahn Brahm or Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche helped me so much.
I think meditation helps getting in that “let it be” mentality and being able to focus more on what I’m doing at the moment. Also noticing my breath throughout the day gives me another thing to relax and something to have some awareness or the current moment.
I will be trying the Lenire device in June at a Minnesota clinic, I will let you know how it works🙏
Just read your comment. How did it go?
@@horaciogomez4368 it did not really work after 4 months, I took about 6 weeks off and I thought what the heck I paid a lot of money for the device so I thought why not try it again, I will see how it goes🙏
Hi @jamesschuster any luck?
@@krishnaadusumilli316 he was (or is) getting paid to promote them…..
It seemed to help for a few days on and off for the 3 months I tried it, but no I am back to still having tinnitus, I have been trying it again, but it is not helping
Just found your site. My tinnitus of decades has recently been getting much worse...to the point now of mild panic at what lies ahead for me. Frankly, I quit looking for resolution of the problem. Thanks for some hope!
Have you been vacc*nated w/ any of the cov*d shots by chance? They found a link between the shots & causing tinnutis. For people who already had it before the shots, the shots have made their tinnutis way worse. Doctors are studying the link/cause at Stanford, Harford, mayo clinic etc..they are pretty sure the C shots induce inflammation in the spinal cord, brain, and ears, causing the adverse event in some people. My mom is suffering severely and she never had tonnutis before the shots. Her specialists have told us it was caused by them, and for her to not get any more boosters. The more boosters you get, the worse the tinnutis can get. There's a man who was In his 60s who had the adverse event happen, causing horrible tinmutis, & he couldn't handle the mental trauma from it being so bad, and he unalived himself. I'm spreading the word bc my mom has expressed If hers doesn't get better that she can't handle this much longer. We learned that TMS treatments are helping people greatly reduce their symptoms and even cure It
That's the next step for my mom. You can research all this yourself. I suggest you do If you have gotten any of the shots. If you havnt, I'm sorry, I know tinnutis can also be caused by hearing loss and it can be genetic. But yeah, don't search on Google, make sure you use bing search engine or a search engine that is not highly Censored.
had it for over 25 years, don't notice it until you think about it, or if its quiet at night
I’m not an Audiologist, but as a Hearing Instrument Specialist I am intrigued about the prospective effectiveness of this new technology. I have a mild hearing loss that is not considered treatable with hearing aids nor it it enough loss to cause communication issues yet I have moderate tinnitus constantly. Admittedly I have tried all the “snake oil” treatments out of desperation to no avail even though I knew better beforehand.
I wonder if the VA will make this type of therapy available to veterans with hearing loss/tinnitus. Thanks for the heads up Dr. Cliff. BTW, I have had terrible tinnitus since returning from Vietnam in 1969. I guess with all the problems I could have from Agent Orange maybe I'm just lucky to still be around to have it...
Have had tinnitus constantly since Vietnam n flying in SAR with less than adequate hearing protection , so I am interested if the VA will help this.
@@daveguilbault614 Good luck. The VA told me decades ago my hearing loss/Tinnitus was not service related and neither were the two bouts I've had with cancer related to Agent Orange exposure. Perhaps the VA's attitude towards Vietnam vets has changed.
Lenire is a scam. No placebo control in the research. Susan Shore's device is what actually works.
Anybody gets it you should..in remembrance of Donald Samuels KIA 1970.
When you going to the VA hospital you’re going to have to insist they provide you with one of these devices because you have rights to proper treatment for your tinnitus other than the one that perhaps they want to offer you. These items are on contract with the VA and you have every right to have access to them but you are gonna have to try to insist they provide it to you.
Very interesting. I am 100% deaf in my left ear. 50% deaf in my right ear. Also I’m tone deaf as well. I cannot hear high pitch sounds at all. I’ve had tinnitus for as long as I can remember. Constant buzzing sound. I’ve just become immune to it in my daily activities. It’s only when I stop or find myself in a quiet place that it is noticeable. All of that being said. I would defiantly like to not have it at all. Unfortunately I’d probably fall into the category of the folks who can’t be helped. I appreciate the video and I hope this is legit so people can get the help they need. Thank you!
Can't you receive a cochlear implant?
😢🙏
What about the method of tapping on the back of your head? I've got occasional tinnitus, that works. (There's a UA-cam video somewhere.) A method I figured out based on Ramachandran's phantom limb mirror therapy. I developed something like this first for twitchy eyes. Basically you feed information from the non-twitching or non-tinnitus side to the problem side. You do this with your fore fingers (most sensitive) from the problem side by lightly rubbing the quiet side of your head. Works like this. Ringing in your right ear. Using the fingers of your right hand you gently rub just in front of your left ear. My tinnitus almost immediately goes away. (For a twitchy eye rub gently just to the outside of eye.) The mechanism I think is similar to Ramachandran's phantom limb: the brain readily overrides what is (usually) a very low signal causing the problem. If both ears are ringing doing the sides alternately seems to also work.
I used to get a twitchy eye from dirt, crusties, fatigue. I would usually treat this by washing my face and eyes or taking a nap. When I tried either of my two methods the twitching went away and didn't come back -- so my eyes were still dirty or tired. This led me to speculate that the signals for ringing and twitchy are very weak. Whatever reason caused your eye to twitch, the reason it keeps twitching is because it was twitching. It's a feedback loop. Try this, if you think you might injure yourself or cause a problem you're doing it wrong. The reason no medical corporation is interested in any of this is they can't charge you for it. And I'm not a doctor, not qualified in any way.
The issue is when the patients are prefiltered the percentages do not totally convince me.
Thanks for keeping us informed.
Not holding my breath. I get different tones (a very high pitched tone at the moment) in both years, about the last year. Quickly increasing hearing loss is genetic in my dad's family starting when we're about 40. Throw in that I grew up around guns and no one thought about hearing protection 30 years ago, loud music/bass as a teenager, inner ear issues as an adult, I'm not surprised by the outcome. ENT told me to simply get use to it, it comes with hearing loss and there's nothing to be done about it. This self reported clinical trial seems iffy to me, another thing to overcharge for that may or may not work for some people and the cost will probably be high. I've found the best defense against tinnitus is to stay busy. If my mind is really occupied, I don't really notice it. If I slow down or things get quiet, it's deafening.
Doctor Cliff: Have you tried this device? If you suffer from tinnitus I would think you would have tried this device and then offered a follow up video on your progress.
What a great video! I've had tinnitus since childhood. It always begins with a total lack of sound in one or both ears. Lately, it is more often, and when it stops, I still have a significantly reduced or total lack of sound. I would love to give this treatment a go. I have this hearing loss, but loud environments cause incredible ear and head pain, so hearing aids may not be the answer. I already tried them twice with Virtego as a result. Anyway, I'm looking forward to my appointment with you next month. You give me hope.
This tinnitus is horrible especially for those of us who have good hearing, therefore for me its not related to hearing loss (checked recently with no hearing loss at 65)It is really annoying because I happen to be one of those people who cannot tolerate noise such as vacuum cleaners, fans, even a car idling can be annoying, but when you have this thing in your head and cannot get rid of it. I do however, find that I am worse when I am stressed. I will be off to the audiologist shortly to see if there is anything that will help (as I run out of time at my last appointment. I meant to add that I am very sensitive to noise.
I got tinnitus after J&J shot. Very loud, have taken various supplements which other videos indicated might help. I still have it, but it does occasionally subside. Wonder if this device will help since I'm convinced my tinnitus is a shot side-effect
Me too !
I got mine after my 1st Moderna shot, 26 hours after to ge exact.
Me also. 3rd shot … Pfizer. Case of Covid made my T even worse …. Been horrible.
I got tinnitus like 3 years ago on right ear. Over time it did get slightly better but it is still there. I got it while being on anti-biotics. Yes anti-biotics, I wish I knew that before taking them for like a week with like 1000 mg daily dosages. Anyways, hopefully this can trick the brain from letting go of the fantom noise, i.e. what the anti-biotics did of course is kill the hairs in the cochlea especially the once that stimulate high pitch sounds
May i ask how it is now?
Wish this can be covered by ppl who are on Medicare and Medicaid. Insurance is always questionable when these devices are put into the pubic.
Don't hold your breath....
I've had severe tinnitus for 20 or more years and wow, I have tried about 20 different things to help and every single one of them accomplished exactly zero. It is clearly incurable, not treatable and nothing at all works for it. It amazes me that people still pretend this new NEW treatment definitely works. Ridiculous, predatory.
My tinnitus ( hissing sound)get worse when taking some medication ,when waking up over night no hissing at all but still there and strikes anytime…
This sounds like the same sort of treatment (device) used on a woman with vertigo in the book "The Brain that Changes Itself" by Norman Doidge M.D. It was invented by Paul Bach-y-Rita.
Tinnitus impedes hearing by raising the noise floor. This is like trying to listen to a distant AM radio station in your car radio and driving under a power line that emits radio interference. In the case of tinnitus, the noise is phantom nerve noise.
After looking at reviews of Lenire,
It doesn’t seem to work as well as people hoped.
Susan Shores Michigan Tinnitus Device seems to be much more likely.
And how
Do you know this is true?
Sorry, but you sound like someone that works for her but believe me I wish it was true. I wish Susan all the success because we need a cure. We don’t care where it comes from. We need it now when you have an extreme tinnitus, it’s debilitating it disabled the person from having a normal life ruins, their relationships, their financial situation, etc. etc. this is no joke to the people that have mild Tinnitus would not understand this but the thing is they don’t realize their mile Tinnitus, at any time can turn into a nightmare Tinnitus, and destroy their good life as they once knew it
@@donnas8408 habituation is something you should seriously consider..
@@colinkillian9265 as someone who had what I came to call “simple tinnitus” (single tone , eventually no impact on life , easy to habituate to over time) and now having catastrophic , debilitating tinnitus (been 5 years and I still cannot habituate to it, at all) trust me … habituation is directly correlated to the severity of the condition. Some people stub their toe at night, and some people have compound fractures. Some people have bleeding gums, and some people have full blown abscesses. Some people have slight angina , and some people suffer a myocardial infarction. Just like every other medical condition on earth … it depends on severity, and tinnitus is no different.
@@joeylodes I'll pray for you, in no way am I trying to be condescending, I just find that there are personality types who resist the idea of Habituation. Fear drives this condition, you'll eventually find a measurement of peace with your tinnitus..
@@joeylodes I suffered my condition about a month ago due to an assault at work, as I work with mental health inpatient adolescents. So perhaps that is why my tinnitus was easier to deal with, medical costs and treatment are covered and I'm being taken care of financially. When it first started it was like a damn siren in my ear and caused such anxiety i sincerely considered suicide. Now after a few weeks I have spikes and I find that the anxiety has lessoned. Oddly enough, my physician is very sympathetic, and when I explained that it's so difficult to take my mind off of the ringing, because of my ADHD, he began treating my ADHD with Ritalin. It definitely gave me more focus to distract myself and help with the eventual habituation. He also prescribed a medication called Gabapentin and that's definitely helped to calm my nerves as well. I have prescription for valium but I refuse to take it more than once a day at most, and only when I've tried to sleep with every coping skill I can muster. I'm a deeply religious Catholic and I find that praying helps especially the rosery..I do hope you find peace..
I just got the Lenire device from my audiologist and started treatment with it. It is expensive and insurance doesn’t cover any of it. I’m staying optimistic that when I get to the 12 week point I will finally have some relief from my tinnitus.
And ? Did it work for you ?
@@opruimdienst9679 I just started the treatment. I was told it is for 12 weeks which will take the treatment to about the beginning of November. I’m hopeful and staying optimistic!!!
Using my indispensable Vita Mix blender daily for years and my beloved dogs high pitched bark may have caused my tinnitus. Unfortunately I didn’t realize it until I developed the problem. Now I use noise suppression head phones. I have also suspected using the microwave several times daily in close proximity to where I work in the kitchen may have also played a role. I feel for the folks that have it worse than I do. It usually only bothers me at night when I’m trying to fall asleep. I usually listen to a podcast to distract me and I can then fall asleep. I wish everyone good luck researching a cure.
From what I understand its a brain wiring issue not with your ears.
Anyway I give prayers to anyone dealing with this.❤
Dr. Cliff, I am extremely excited to hear this. I have very bad tinnitus and have been very depressed over no treatment for it. I know that some people have tinnitus as a result of natural hearing loss. However, I suffered physical damage from a diving accident do you know how many of the people treated successfully had physical damage? Just curious.
I’m going to chime in here in the hopes of helping you have hope. The physical damage has long since healed so the only reason the tinnitus continues is because the brain has created neural pathways and those pathways can be changed bc of brain plasticity which is what Lanier is doing. Also Look into the biopsychosocial cause and treatment of tinnitus.
Ok
This video is 1yr old. So what’s the verdict?
My tinnitus is a constant whooshing noise / constant white noise and it all came about since contracting covid 19 . I've been given hearing aids - they haven't helped - I can't wait to see if the treatment worked for you🤞🙏❤ 🇬🇧
Lots of love ❤❤❤❤❤ that lesson helps when someone has Hearing loss
