    SoundCure Serenade Tinnitus Treatment System

    I'm trying hard to habituate on my own. Many that have had their T for years say it gets better and easier. I use an ipod and still need to listen to music to ease my high pitch. Everyday I try and not use it for a bit hoping I will get used to my T and have it fall in the background as many...

    SoundCure Serenade Tinnitus Treatment System

    Maybe it has lowered a bit. I have better days and not so good days. I didn't care for the SoundCare. Didn't like the frequency it produced and didn't feel any relief when using it. It may work for others. I'm trying to habituate on my own. It isn't easy but they do say it gets better and...

    From Darkness to Light, How I Recovered from Tinnitus & Hyperacusis

    Billie, your posting was an eye opener for me. My T is high pitched and most days have to listen to music to cover the sound and even then my pitch climbs to the top. I've been so negative with my T and find it difficult at times. Thank you for taking the time to put your thoughts down for...

    Flying & Tinnitus

    I am going to travel as well for the first time next week - 1/2 hour flight. I am a bit concerned as well. I'll but the EarPlanes but not certain I will be able to sit in front of the engines. Assuming the best time to put them in is descending. Shall I take them off once we land?

    Flying & Tinnitus

    Hi everyone, my T started in Dec. 2013 and I am also terrified to fly. I'm going to Arizona about an hour 1/2 flight. There are so much suggestions like wear plugs, don't wear plugs, sit in front, etc. Is there any really sound advice. Going in another week. btw I'm the nervous type...

    SoundCure Serenade Tinnitus Treatment System

    You bet. It's been 3 months and thought I had it controlled until the SoundCure. Hope the people in SF will help since that is all they specialize in is Tinnitus and they are actually doctors.

    Trying to Get Back to Normal

    Hi Deb, I don't because I'm one of the odd people that don't own an iPhone. Is there another way I can find this out? btw I don't own an iPhone since I'm trying to keep my life simple these days. I worked for a super busy law firm in the Silicon Valley (Palo Alto) and was often stressed.

    SoundCure Serenade Tinnitus Treatment System

    Hi Carlover, I tried the device and am worse now than before. I was told to listen at low volume the tone I felt more comfortable with which was track 4, level 1. It is a white type noise and I felt comfortable with that because I hardly heard it but didn't hear my T either. The other tracks...

    Trying to Get Back to Normal

    Hi Patty, The SleepPhones have been my smartest purchase and very comfy. I purchased them on their site. I plug them into my laptop or iPodNono and listen to my favorite nature sounds: rain drops on a pond or the ocean waves with light thunder. Not sure about the iPhone since I don't own...

    Trying to Get Back to Normal

    Hi everyone and Patty! We're both fairly close in where we acquired T a month apart. Mine is from TMJ who would think that was possible. There have been some really good eye opening comments here. THANKS TO ALL OF YOU. I'm still in the experimenting stage. The reason I came here tonight...

    SoundCure Serenade Tinnitus Treatment System

    I've just recently found something close to what soothes my T is "Drops of Rain Falling on a Pond" off a Gentle Rain album. I purchased an iPod nano today and am planning to download music and sounds. It's really nice of you Steve to help us out on the sounds when you could be doing something...

    SoundCure Serenade Tinnitus Treatment System

    Hi there, Thanks so much you're sweet! Because I have a high frequency tone in my left ear the pitch sound is too high for me. My T doesn't like it. I'm still experimenting but it's not an easy find. Right now I sleep with ocean wave sounds listening through sleep phones. I also like...

    SoundCure Serenade Tinnitus Treatment System

    Hi Steve, funny thing I was going to ask you a similar question. So what is the science behind the following: a sound generator like SoundCure, a masking device like Widex "Zen2Go" uses random soothing harmonic tones to help relax and manage the effects of T or my ipod mini to divert...

    SoundCure Serenade Tinnitus Treatment System

    Good luck with your Tinnitus Network. I will keep you posted. My T came with TMJ not sure how that happens could be tight muscles around the jaw. Some good days like today (very quiet). Other days hard to handle. Haven't had need to use my device today. I may continue the SoundCure on my...
