...There is a thread here on TT talking on the subject. There are some commercial products targeting this form of therapy. I don't know how effective they are but they seem expensive. https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/acoustic-cr%C2%AE-neuromodulation-a-new-treatment-for-tinnitus.219/#post-1317

...I read some papers on orthostatic and supine tinnitus, they seem to suggest that blood flow and nerves do that, especially those in c1 and c2. One thing I noticed is that lying down worsens my ETD. Before prednisone it was a mess and it seemed to go hand in hand with the tinnitus loudness. I...

...If you have a misaligned jaw then it may come down to your sternocleidomastoids not being in balance. This can also place pressure on your C1 and C2 even without discomfort. Sound modulation with jaw misalignment, having tinnitus and with more quiet when laying down is usually an unbalance of...

It's alright post anything you'd like.

...out by the neck spasms. C3/C4 disc consideration due to the right side tinnitus, when usually it's both ears. Right side SCM has limited movement and occipital nerves may be involved- tilted C1/C2 may be a possibility. Will update this thread on any findings. Thanks and regards, Andrew

Mario, I found that there is a thread here on Tinnitus Talk about neuromodulation therapy: https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/acoustic-cr%C2%AE-neuromodulation-a-new-treatment-for-tinnitus.219/page-3 Is this what you are considering? Looks like there are some other people who have tried it...

...to shoulders) my tinnitus pitch changed and it slightly became louder. Does it mean I have somatic T? Also I agree with the above post . C1 C2 instability in cervical area is the main hidden culprit for many problems including tinnitus. NUCCA chiropractor can be of great help in such a case

@Mathew Gould A misaligned jaw most always includes distortion of the C1 / C2. This is where the head joins the neck. This is why your neck was cracking. Besides using a mouth piece, correct posture is important. Not to bend forward improperly is important, as that can also weaken your chin. A...

My neck is mildly sore but the C2/C3 stuff usually radiatees all the way to my hip.

Would the radiologist know what to look for? I would have to call him tomorrow and ask about this. Its a pretty invasive procedure so do not want to do it more than once...

Did your neck pain precede your tinnitus by some time? I had neck pain along with a constant headache for two years and both went away partly due to physiotherapy. I suspect you’ve tried everything but might be worth a try for you, I have put my father onto it.

...only flares up when I sleep poorly or in a poor head position. I'm currently getting chiro corrective care for a jacked up neck. (right shifted c2 dens-odontoid process) How did they help you with sleep posture? How can you control that while your sleeping? Congrats again and thank you for...

The same with me, but I need to add my C1 -C2 area. I had dental whiplash associated with jaw and neck where I received a straighten c spine. I shouldn't be forward bending over a keyboard.

@Sonic17 Usually it's the C1, C2 or C3 - for a herniated disc to cause tinnitus, but it can be C5-6, although not likely unless there's joint hypertrophy, facet arthritis - spondylosis present from C4-7. If there's nerve touching the disc, then a basic needle procedure to cut the nerve has...

The c1-c2 sounds like in the area of my problem. Can this problem go away on its own?? Should I be doing physical therapy or is there some stretches I could do. Its gotten better also over 5 months, but only a little. I still have lost motion in my neck and it feels weak. My neck can't even be...

Otitis Externa, from swimming. But also TMJ / Neck (C2 C3) problems from stress. I think I started jaw clenching after the tinnitus started, but who knows. ATM the neck pain is awful. The last fleeting I had was in september. So October and November went pretty well, but this last week has been...

Gaming online often makes mine worse. I believe that (for me) it's the neck stress, around C1 and C2 where I carry a lot of tension. Same thing I believe is at play in driving for any longer distances, which also makes mine worse.

...from a toxic drug or withdrawal if you woke up with raging T. It may that your problem is TMJ and/or caused from neck, specifically your C1 and C2 vertebrate being stressed. If this is your problem then support under your neck by use of a small pillow while sleeping may be a life changer for...

...printing the TTTS info and taking it with me. I match most of it to my surprise. I'm in some sort of shock I didn't learn about this sooner. My chiropractor keeps a log of my adjustments and C1, C2 are always on it. So either he is contributing to the problem or its not being addressed correctly.

...help matters. Some get TMJ from intense stress, dental, clenching or in association with the neck. Minus clenching - 87 - 96% of the time the C1 C2 vertebrae is out of proper alignment and/or due to pressure being placed on nerves and other structures affecting the middle ear as a result of...

@november How are you managing now? How is your family doing? I hope that you are seeing continued improvement. For me, I know that my C1 and C2 caused my TMJ, but I recently finally found out a suspect to what is causing my T. It's my deeper cervical veins and vertebral arteries. I recently...

...realignment today. It did have the popping sound and it did relieve the neck pain, but the high pitch T is still there. He concentrated on the C2 area. The chiro said give it time, and suggested to take vitamin A. He asked me if I'm drinking enough water and told him no, about half what I...

I truly hope you are right and it will resolve

So if you have TMJ issues with neck issues, then atlas therapy has a better chance to help you?

I am seeing someone tomorrow at Advanced Pain Management to discuss neuro ablation of the C2 facet joints to see if there is a possible connection to my tinnitus. I would have forgot the appt. if I hadn't talked to a nurse there today, as it was made months ago. The noise is very disturbing and...

Interesting, C1 and C2 seem to be where my problem is, basically the base of my skull. Did you ever have problems with your jaw or anything else?? Where do you live?

...likely. I would guess that your bulging vertebrae is C3 - C4 as it does seems that you are having some otalgia from tongue placement. C1 and C2 is more connected with teeth clenching which you don't do and does not bulge. A CT Myelogram is needed. Then: Physical therapy hot/cold...

Wow, that sucks Greg. I am new to all of this, but I had no idea there was a scale to measure T. How is that done? Sorry for your troubles, I hope something can help you going forward. Dan

They speak about it in this thread ... https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/multitarget-surgical-neuromodulation-combined-c2-and-auditory-cortex-implantation-for-tinnitus.8377/ seems like it uses the timeframe 5 years ! ... please just give a pill or zap the bloody thing out of the universe...

Interesting... I have had tinnitus since I injured my neck in 2017. I wish I could find a way to untrap a pinched nerve if that is what is causing this. Where could I get this done?

For me I found about 3 days after the taper my tinnitus sounds came back to baseline.

...Gabapentin could help to a certain degree. Maybe you have some muscle spasms from your ligament tears in your neck causing the noise? I know your frustrations, although everyone is a bit different. I've tried a bit of everything including RF Nuero-Ablations as high as C2-C3. I may try them again.

...neck could be causing some of my noise too but not positive. I had a recent chiro adjustment and I thought he said I had some movement in the C1-C2 area. I took some Robaxin after the adjustment and seemed good for awhile. Robaxin is a CNS depressant though, so that could be the reason. Going...

What about the stuff discussed in this thread? https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/multitarget-surgical-neuromodulation-combined-c2-and-auditory-cortex-implantation-for-tinnitus.8377/ And there is also a thread about DBS for T somewhere on the forum.

...that thankfully has a happy ending. There are times I still have some pain but nowhere near where it had been. I still have two more discs at C2/C3 and C3/C4 levels that are merely bulging, as well as some endplate bone spurs and narrowing of the spinal cord canal. I'll web search this...

...proper posture overnight, my tinnitus becomes barely noticeable -- but it is not gone. I have been reading many studies that indicate that SPTS can be cured through the use of TENS units. How would I go about trying to figure out using a TENS unit? My problems are confined to the C2-C6 region.

Quoting directly from the paper (emphasis mine): Electrical stimulation activates or inhibits cells in the ventral and dorsal division of the cochlear nucleus (Shore 2005; Shore et al. 2003; Young et al. 1995) and can suppress or enhance responses to sound (Shore 2005; Shore et al. 2003). It...

Actually I have had neck X-RAYs. My C2 and C3 show wear/arthritis due to me being a long distance runner. It has been an issue in the past. So I know there is wear there and chiropractor saw it also and did adjustments but not much else.
