She holds a patent? That means the patent was probably submitted some time ago. The device will get out in few years at least? Cool just take the patent description and send it in China for a very limited production (ex. 100 devices, for non-commercial purpose) via Alibaba, and we're all done...

Try to solve your other life issues, take an appointment with a competent psychotherapist (behavioral therapy will probably indicated) - and force yourself to go each week. Once you improve other areas in your life, you will see that tinnitus will be much easier to manage.

I am not sure about that one, just read the research content quickly in few minutes ... What I am thinking is that if you can give your body a signal that reduces the tinnitus, it may be possible to imitate it externally. On the other hand, if you are only able to provide a signal that amplifies...

Exact, and that is why I am telling "if they are in for the money". If she is just interested in research, she will probably wait for FDA. That could be an interesting question to raise with Susan and her team directly, preferably over phone if someone is available.

Manufacturing in China, distributors outside of US, and they can be on the market fairly quickly. If they are in also for the money (and not only research). People in the US could then buy the device on Amazon or wherever.

If they go the "regular way" by selling it in USA yes (see https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/ProductsandMedicalProcedures/HomeHealthandConsumer/ConsumerProducts/ucm142478.htm) . However, EMS devices can be sold in a large number of countries without any particular approval. There are no...

Ah too bad, however as it is a pretty simple device - sound & electric impulses (there are thousands of these on the market) - it could go on sale very quickly, perhaps even this year. Susan Shore's thinking is very interesting and simple. She basically postulates that if it is possible for...

Now this looks very promising (given the small scale trial results) for people with somatic tinnitus. I have asked if it possible to get a trial device outside of USA.

Yes also the same, when you pull your head backwards (looking up) the movement compresses your artery a little bit more so you can hear your tinnitus louder. For me, I think that it is (too much) high intensity bodybuilding workouts that created some terrible muscle spasms in the upper back /...

You probably have the same stuff as me, as I have the exactly same symptoms. It is very funny to eat when you can stop tinnitus when clenching teeth by the way.

Does your tinnitus get louder when you open your mouth very wide (ex. yawn) ?

If it is a pinched blood vessel, you should be able to modulate your tinnitus by moving your neck around. It is pretty easy to understand - the pression on your vessel should vary when you stretch. If not, it is probably something other / located somewhere else. Forget hoping for other people's...

If your muscular spasms vary during the month - which is most probably the case (say you sleep in a bad position one night) - this can impact your arterial pressure on heart beats (blood flow is not the same) => make your tinnitus much more noticeable because nerve compression is higher. So I...

Hello Maureen, same stuff here ... That movement is probably decompressing an artery that is stuck against your nerve, probably nothing to do with TMJ.
