I have tried acupuncture about 3 times with different people at least 30 treatments all in.Didnt touch it. When I think all the things I have tried ,how much it has cost ,its truly ridiculous.

It generally has not helped majority of the community. But if it’s helping you, stick with it!

...Thing is, a doctor with no T experience can give it to me. If it goes wrong, I'm the one who is paying the price. I've continued the acupuncture, this time for facial pain. The acupuncturist put some electrical wires onto the acupuncture needles and yes it was irritating. It did not really...

Sorry to hear! Did you try corticotioid (predinisone)? Starting with 60 mg 1 week and then tapering with 10 mg?

...I have been more or less successful and managed to keep the devil in control by regular excercise, taking some chinese herb medicine and acupuncture. Before that I have tried several other staff (betahistamini etc.) but nothing was successful until the chinese herb medicine and acupuncture...

Thanks for posting! I’ve only been dealing with this for 3/4 weeks and I’ve found acupuncture to be helpful as well. It can be expensive so I would advise others to give community acupuncture a try. My place offers a sliding scale fee of $15-$35. Whatever you feel like paying that day! It has...

I gave acupuncture a try myself, it's very relaxing and therapeutic but it did nothing for my tinnitus unfortunately. I hope you find relief though! You never know, what doesn't work for one person may work for another.

Just wanted to give an update and say after the prescribed amount of sessions, T remains the exact same. Acupuncture may help for other ailments. It does help with anxiety and relaxation. But with tinnitus, for me... useless.

Hey there all... So far, there is no definitive research that shows acupuncture works on tinnitus, but many believe it has promise. This basically is an update on a post I did on this thread in October, which you will see if you scroll up, when I first started acupuncture. Sorry, some of the...

I have just begun acupuncture again -- this time for a back injury. At my next appointment, I will ask my acupuncturist about the possibility of treating my T and PT along with my other issues. Worth a try!!

Hi Karl, I really feel for you....but keep the faith...my daughter-in-law rang me after her first acupuncture last night and apparently there is a good success rate with curbing Tinnitus and recommends it for mine. Don't know what you have tried so far as I only joined Tinnitus Talk on the...

...inflamed. Not sure if he's actually correct about that, as all he did was rub my head for and spine for 30 minutes, but he recommended acupuncture. I'm personally enthusiastic about it, and so are my parents, but I'm asking here to see if anyone has anything to say about it? Obviously I'm...

TracyJS, no, you will not get the tinnitus worse because of this, the only problem is that person does not know how to do acupuncture. As has been said, you do not feel pain when it is well done.That's exactly what Wolfears said.

Going to try the acupuncture in Harley st and seeing chripatore tomo as well as willing to go to Ibiza for laser treatment My mates going Ibiza partying / clubbing I have to go and sort my T out

...meningitis I first blamed the lumbar puncture but now believe it’s from the meningitis I was diagnosed on 12/8/2017 and tinnitus started 12/15 and has been 24/7 high pitched tone since I have been considering acupuncture and see it may have helped you and just wanted to know if you’re still T...

I lost a kidney in an accident 15 years ago but got T 11 monthes ago so I really dont see any correlation. Did the acupuncture route found it very relaxing but no positive effect on my T.

...can try them to see what the results are? Below is how to do it without having to read all the other stuff. Basically it is tapping on acupuncture points (acupuncture is known to work cos it is currently used and has been used for ages in the NHS in UK) and mentally or out loud verbally...

If anybody puts a prick in my ear - they’re gonna get a smack in the mouth !! (Ooops - sorry) xx

Dear friends with hyperacusis, acupuncture significantly reduced this in one session for me, when my first ear event happened that resulted in my current tinnitus. Please try it. It made everything bearable again. My best to you.

I have seen 3 acupuncturists. None have helped. It actually made it spike more with the 1st. Same with Cranial Sacral Therapy, tried 2 therapists. These were covered under my plan. I did stay with the 3rd who I call the "Chi Master". I get a 2 hour acupuncture & cupping. I do find it relaxing.

She said she had it for 5-6months. She tried acupuncture for 5sittings. Every week 1appointment of acupuncture so 5weeks of acupuncture cured her T. She did not know the cause either. I am going for an MRI :( did they not give any ear plugs ? I am planning to take my own ear plugs and ear mask...

Thank you for sharing. If there is a link between the neck and T, it is very disturbing. (I heard numerous stories about T getting worse as a result of manipulating the neck, and never any stories about T getting better...) From now on, when it comes to my neck, I will try to be extra careful...

I'm so sorry Andrew ! I'm dying and trying to relax. I'm going to therapy acupuncture chiropractor and a hearing center for hearing aids also they do TRT I have to retrain my brain How are you now?

Thank you @Michael Leigh and @ajc. I am doing all kinds of self-help now and getting acupuncture and herbs on a regular basis. My HMO has no audiologists in the network with experience treating my condition, so if I want TRT, I will have to see an out-of-network provider and pay out of...

...I am consciously trying to be more positive and I will continue to do so :) @Michael Leigh, will do! Best of luck to you as well :) Re: Acupuncture, I noticed it helped the symptoms associated with the acoustic trauma- anxiety, nausea, uncomfortable body sensations. It seemed to make the...

@FGG, @Frédéric, @brownbear or anyone else who has medical knowledge :) Do you think there is some truth in acupuncture claiming that problems with the ear are connected to the kidney and/or the adneral glands? I find it really hard to believe it, but I'm an absolute layman. I asked a TCM...

Starting to work for me. I’ve been doing acupoints & acupuncture with electrical stimulation since June. After today’s treatment I had near silence. Probably won’t last but it shows we can get there. I’ve gone for treatment twice a week for at least 2 hours a day. I pray this treatment works...

I did try acupuncture. I tried everything. I know a person who got rid of T emerged after acoustic trauma in military training through acupuncture. The person is serious he's not lying. Acupuncture makes sense, in a way, T is an energetic imbalance that theoretically could be corrected by...

...post-vaccine tinnitus sufferers are female? I have a history of migraine and I'm starting to wonder if it's related? Also, I was told acupuncture/acupressure helps. There are some good resources online with key pressure points. I'm due for my second dose on Thursday. I've been on the...

I've had some tinnitus but mostly TMJ symptoms from clenching my jaw at night - serious neck tension and head pain. Have tried many things: chiro, massage, acupuncture, supplements, and a mouth guard. Saw that Cerezen was discontinued in the U.S.

I generally found acupuncture to raise mine as well. Both with and without the electric component. What I meant was that the electric needling is a super common thing among both physical therapists and acupuncturists generally and is common enough that I don’t think it is usually considered...

Thanks , I too had them around the neck and on the temple by the ear ..Also some on my hands . National Health Service Physio who also knows Acupuncture but not really in relation to ear issues unfortunately. Thanks Eltel

@antonio77: The fact that the acupuncturist elicited or aggravated your symptoms suggests that he hit a trigger point responsible for your symptoms at least in part. I think this is very encouraging and you should try acupuncture again or Trigger Point therapy (manual therapy).

Have you tried acupuncture for tinnitus? Or any other treatments or supplements?

To my understanding, yes, that is somatic. Someone please correct me if that's not right. Acupuncture, massage, etc does nothing.

...up external sounds, but it seems to be with me every morning when I wake up...also late at night. Hopefully it goes away as it’s kind of disconcerting. Once the world starts again, I’ll being seeing some more doctors about this. Maybe a massage, acupuncture, chiropractor... the possibilities. Lol

What about the LLLT offered in "normal" ENT clinics? With ENT's working there? It's always offered as alternative treatment, so they might have some success, even if it's placebo...maybe it's the same,as somebody says, go take acupuncture.

I also tried acupuncture from a Chinese traditional medicine guy where he hooked up the zapper, as I call it lol, but only did 2 sessions. Maybe I should do more and keep trying. Think I might make an apt tomorrow.

Hi Carlyi, I was wondering how your T was doing. I've had T on and off for the last 2+ years and I believe it's related to my neck and jaw. I'm trying acupuncture for the first time Friday. Trying to stay optimistic.

has anyone tried acupuncture for tinnitus? if so, did it help, or is it a waste of money. I have had T for 25 years but just recently got much worse. tried doctors, masking devices, herbs, hearing aids, nothing has helped.

@John Meyers Ehm, not sure if you'd like to learn a little more about acupuncture, but this is definitely interesting :) If anything, you might even help a different part of your body Ricardo

By now I have quack test , I ask them about Tinnitus , if they pause, look at their "chinese" acupuncture chart that they all seem to have and say " the liver" is connected to the ears , I know they are clueless.

...coming from tonic tensor tympani syndrome. Maybe it was both? But whatever was causing the pain, it did stop eventually. I credit acupuncture for the most part. Cymbalta also helped, and I only wish I'd started taking that sooner instead of holding out for so long because I was afraid to take...

...go to help with pain I have and maybe to help hyperacusis & tinnitus, but it just caused too much pain to keep going. I'm thinking about giving acupuncture a go, what's everyone's take? Did it help anybody? What about other therapies? Craniosacral osteopath, or just a regular osteopath...

I'd try Nicotinamide Riboside too.

Acupuncture to T is a joke. They keep treating for gastrointestinal problems. May be 1000 years ago, T could have been for such issues, but today it is nothing but a joke. Sadly this doesn't come with a money-back guarantee.

LadyDi, Could you elaborate on the supplements and medications and how they helped? I have tried acupuncture for othr things, did it help you? How did the Neuronomics work for you? Thank you. Willowman

...posts. Yes I agree there is something to Chiro for sure. I go to my Chiro about every six weeks and I have started to incorporate acupuncture as well. I do acupuncture once a week. My acupuncturist is helping me with the TMJ/TMD, my ears, anxiety, and monthly female issues. I have been...

...and comes after listening music (around 60 decibels), phone calls, jogging, cycling, traffic. Also have cooling sensations now too. Acupuncture is very interesting - pleased it's worked out for you. I will try to find someone but is there anything on the internet how I can manage do it...
