I went for acupuncture based on some success stories I've read online, especially one here where an older woman had 3 procedures and it cured her 10 year long tinnitus. It's been over 2 weeks. After the 3rd acupuncture I've been totally screwed. The tinnitus volume is off the charts, I don't...

I received Acupuncture 6 days ago from someone who should be good -- he is a professor at a local Chinese medicine school and from 6 generations of Chinese medicine doctors. He seemed to know what he was doing. My tinnitus was actually not doing too badly when I saw him. I was there for a...

Since there was no acupuncture thread in the Research News, I created this one with this first article: He-Ne laser acupuncture for 30 cases of unilateral nervous tinnitus Department of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, Weihai Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Weihai 264200...

I completed ten sessions of SuJok acupuncture (which exclusively places needles on the fingers). During those sessions, I didn't feel any changes, but I was told that the effects should start to manifest in the coming days. Has anyone had experience with this type of acupuncture?

So you got an MRI?

Acupuncture, I tried it here in Shanghai, does not work. Just a waste of money.

Anyone have positive (even neutral, just not negative) experiences with dry needling and/or acupuncture? Looking into it for my jaws/face.

Hi, I was wondering if there were any positive results with acupuncture. I use an excellent practitioner for another problem, and considering asking him to work on my ears. Thank you.

...head, so I’m torn about what to do. I’m sorry I don’t have specific advice for you, but I can share what I’ve tried. I’ve been to a chiropractor, seen a naturopath, and found that acupuncture has been helpful. However, acupuncture is quite expensive for us, so it’s challenging to go...

Hi guys, My mild tinnitus has become no so mild since 1 week ago. I decided 1 week ago to try acupuncture for my tinnitus. 3 days later my tinnitus was a bit worse, the next day I took second acupuncture session and today (2 days later) my tinnitus is louder (plus a new tone) than yesterday. I...

...having the low buzz, I completely freaked out. From then once again I was trying a bunch of things, then I came across a post about acupuncture helping. I was convinced this could help because I noticed I could massage the tinnitus to a lower volume or completely away sometimes (it was still...

...physically. I am saddened that so many people have suffered with this malady while there seems to be only random solutions but FOR ME Acupuncture really did work. About 8 or 9 years ago I got Tinnitus and it started keeping me up at night. That was the only time it bothered me. Not one to...

...that I don’t care about how it started is one of the reasons I started to habituate. Stopped stressing over it. So I thought I’d give acupuncture a go as I thought it would speed up the habituation process. I’ve been having hourly sessions once a week for 6 weeks and I can honestly say that...

...those people all the time. It's a betrayal I will never forget. In addition to the suggestions others have given you, I humbly suggest acupuncture. It doesn't cure ear problems, but it provides some relief from pain, insomnia, depression, and anxiety, and there are no side effects...

I highly recommend everyone gets an acupuncture mat to deal with tinnitus stress and muscle tightness. I find it’s a huge help

...rates just seem far too good. although this is a recent "study" - dated FEBRUARY 15th, 2016 "Two separate groups were tested with the acupuncture point prescriptions. Both groups had an acupuncture needle retention time of thirty minutes. Acupuncture was conducted once per day for a grand...

I had Acupuncture treatments to quit smoking decades ago. I don't remember much about it; the earlobes were part of where the needles were. Maybe it helped, or perhaps it was psychological, but I never touched tobacco again.

I had acupuncture for the first time and my T has been spiked since then and its been a few days. The doctor is urging me to continue but I am hesitant. I'm trying to understand what could be happening. On one hand tinnitus can be over active neurons firing away in my brain and the acupuncture...

Has anyone tried laser acupuncture? I have an opportunity to have it done by medically trained doctor and it's all covered by Medicare, no expenses from my pocket! I read the succes story of another member but wondering if anyone else tried it?

It is in dispute if you dig a little. Acupuncture and Endorphins: Not all that Impressive | Science-Based Medicine This is an in-depth article which actually quotes from the studies on PubMed. My own conclusion - I DO NOT KNOW. But I have some doubts about whether the claim IS true.

Update: My tinnitus has improved significantly. It's now around 0.05/10. I visited Dr. (TCM) Dong Jingjing and did Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. I also practiced the "ignore" technique after watching Vik Veer's "How I Cured My Tinnitus" video to attempt to program my brain to ignore the...

I am a critic of Acupuncture both ways. So claims that Acupuncture made my tinnitus worse are not more or less reliable than tinnitus improved my Acupuncture. The vast bulk of people who try Acupuncture for tinnitus experience no effect either way. The few successes we see claimed may be...

Hey Sara. Thanks for clarifying. I would be interested to know why you think tinnitus from an injury would not be impossible to treat? What could Acupuncture do to address that? Many thanks in advance for your reply!

...to your post. Just as in Western medicine, tinnitus is one of the most difficult things to treat in Chinese medicine (which includes Acupuncture) as well. I remember one of my professors telling us that in class. I think that Acupuncture for tinnitus that is the result of an injury is more...

Another overlooked fact about Acupuncture is that the Chinese Emperor outlawed Acupuncture in the 19th century and it was made obsolete. This decision was revisited some time later and confirmed as China switched to modern methods. Chairman Mao brought it back in the 20th century purely because...

...is a screenshot: I stand by my earlier comments and indeed the experiences of Tinnitus Talk members seems to back up my suspicion that Acupuncture does not help to relieve tinnitus. You are claiming that in some cases tinnitus can be caused by an imbalance in the body (whatever that...

I noticed posts asking if Acupuncture works so I decided to read through this thread. My conclusions: - Approximately 7 in 8 who tried Acupuncture reported no success. - 1 in 8 claimed anything from huge improvement to some improvement. - Studies published have not established that Acupuncture...

...further but ok, perhaps no one knows, but here's a counter just to add a different point of view. Many people often feel relaxed after acupuncture. That calm feeling is a chemical release within the body, whatever that chemical release is. Whether endoprhins, dopamine or something else...

I have read a number of research papers on Acupuncture for stress only, nothing to do with tinnitus, and almost all have said 'more research is needed'. Wow. But in general the studies suggest Acupuncture does reduce stress levels compared to sham procedures during the same studies. A...

People wasting so much money on bogus treatments acupuncture Lenire etc. It is very depressing.

hello everyone! I was just wondering if anyone has had any success with acupuncture therapy for any form of tinnitus. Whether it be experiencing silence, relief of stress or anxiety brought on by the ringing, or just a difference in volume, I would really appreciate some information and...

Hello, Just wanted to update one of my colleague mentioned that her friend's tinnitus went away after acupuncture. I was waiting to see if my tinnitus will go away since past 53days. I haven't seen any change. So, I called her today and spoke. She mentioned her T came suddenly and did not...

...else but was not sure what. Like all of you ,I thought the help that's on the net are all a scam. A friend of mine talked about Laser Acupuncture and how it has relieved her of back pain and she suggested to my wife she should see this doctor about it for her neck pain. I took my wife to...

...case. Anyways, my question for you all is, has anybody ever tried alternative medicine measures such as chiropractors, osteopaths, and acupuncture? I've been doing research online in regards to my type of T (it *appears* to be somatic T) and it seems like I could benefit from these...

Acupuncture, massage, b12 injections, therapy - nothing produces any results whatsoever. I am done searching for a cure. This is my fate.

...2022. Back then, my hearing loss was above 15-16 kHz. I could hear 16 kHz at 30 decibels (this was in 2014). During that time, I tried acupuncture, homeopathy, and a lot of supplements, but nothing worked. Eventually, I habituated, and it never really bothered me. I lived my life like a...

...for a couple of weeks, and then really low for a week or even a few days. Ever since the spike since the party I decided I would try acupuncture. First session was ok, didn't affect the volume of my tinnitus but it relaxed me so I was happy with that. However, the second session sent my...

Thanks for your considerate post which I am just noticing now. I am in therapy and have tried acupuncture. Acupuncture seemed to help with my sleep in the beginning of this nightmare but maybe it was placebo. As for meditation, I think I am still too anxious and stressed to give it a try...

Hi @Juliane, no worries at all, good to hear from you. I did try acupuncture myself, and it didn't seem to have an effect on my tinnitus or my sleep. I do have a family friend who recently had an onset of tinnitus, and she tells me that acupuncture lowers the volume of her tinnitus. So it seems...

Thanks - but being needled never really appealed. What about community massage? That could be good.

I heard acupuncture did not work. I am willing to almost try anything but my understanding is that you need to be carful since they can cause more problems then they fix. I guess there is a little risk with everything.

...is causing your tinnitus. Frankly if I was a multi millionaire, I would possibly hazard my money on many different therapies including acupuncture (or maybe not - needles in the skin do not really appeal to me that much). But since my money is limited, I tend to be quite careful with how I...
