...but louder during the rest of the day and especially while I am sleeping (although I am used to it enough that I can sleep). I started acupuncture. Interesting that my T gets very quite right when I lay down on the treatment bed before the acupuncture starts! I also find it gives me some...

Agreed. It is probably one of those clinics who advertise "alternative healing methods" that do acupuncture, laser and such crap. Nothing more than relaxation/habituation/placebo stuff.

...from some moderate arthritis in my neck. Neurology thought it was concussion causing my light sensitivity and also my hyperacusis, but this is not the case. I see an osteopath weekly who also does acupuncture as well. Nerve blocks help my severe occipital pain but this hearing is something else

I am trying acupuncture .. i had only 2 sessions but i have no results yet... I am also taking some herbs and mushrooms... They say its for the liver... Hope it works!

I'm talking about traditional Chinese acupuncture, with needles. It's very nice, very relaxing. I think they say it is due to "kidney" malfunction, because traditional Chinese medicine understand the body as a whole, and it is a bit weird in its diagnosis, I know... but that's the way it is...

...bad with my tinnitus lately. One of my breakdowns happened in front of my family members and now they are insisting that I should try acupuncture, because XY got good results for their totally unrelated issues (joint pain, if I recall correctly). I'm firmly on the opinion that it does not...

...for a circa 60 min period. During that period the clinician moves the needle (I'm thinking this is something akin to a kind of deep-tissue acupuncture) presumably to innervate the nerve. So the protocol seems to be a mixture of Lidocaine injection together with physical movement of the needle.

Neck massage. . Muscle relaxants.. acupuncture. . might help..

Anyone have any luck with acupuncture? Thinking about giving it a try, nothing to lose at this point. If anything I'm hoping it'll at least help me relax a bit.

...gradually increase throughout the day, being at its worst in the evening. Plus, it seemed to be gradually getting worse. -- I had an acupuncture session after a few weeks of this, and the burning dissipated by about 95% after just that one session. I seldom experience burning these days...

Brian, what works for me is exercise. It doesn't lower my T, but it does help me better cope with it. I'd be interested in hearing how acupuncture works for you.

...had a tympanogram, CAT scan and MRI done, and there is no apparent physical problem causing all this. So far he's tried sound therapy, acupuncture, neurofeedback, noise-generating hearing aids and cognitive behavioral therapy. Right now he's trying out auricular vagus nerve stimulation. So...

I have found a therapist who will apply the acupuncture moxibustion for ten consecutive days. Im in on it. If T and H improve TT will be the first to know

@Curt2015 Hey I was wondering if you could give an update on your tinnitus that was flared up from using the syringe. Also have you tried the acupuncture yet?

Thanks! Yeah, apparently it would take quite a few visits to notice a difference.

I had 6 sessions, nothing happened, so I stopped, I wasted my money.

Hi Dodo, glad to hear the laser acupuncture worked for you. How are you doing now? Would you mind giving me the details of the doctor you went to. I live in Dubai.

I'm going to accupuncture as well. Here's hoping

I looked into Intoears (NL) and its TRT. Physiotherapy is the only thing (aside of acupuncture) that does help thus far. TRT is unfortunately out of my payment options (1500 euro).

I also have used acupuncture for my T and it did not seem to help much but I did feel it helped with my tension in my neck and relieved stress.

...Sinuses and ears seem to be very connected. I hope you've found ways to lower your stress--I've heard great things about acupuncture for stress relief and also tinnitus. Guided meditation and calm music also help a great deal. Wishing you a good new year and good health my friend. Steph

...similar issues. I now massage all those tight areas on a daily basis, and it's pretty amazing how much of that tension and pain can be worked out. Only takes a minute or so. Another thing to consider is to learn how to do a few simple acupuncture points. I've found it to be very helpful as well.

I’ve tried acupuncture. Didn’t have any effect for me unfortunately. I’m working on posture and stretches. Trying to stick to mostly anti-inflammatory diet. I can modulate my tinnitus with my neck, jaw, eyes, and pressure points on my head. I asked the prospective surgeon about that for my...

There are lots of alternative approaches (acupuncture and craniosacral therapy, etc.) but the passage of time seems to be important as long as you try to go about your life and not overprotect, etc.

...to read about success stories for somatic tinnitus. I don’t come across many of these, but I am hopeful that my neck movement induced Tinnitus, which is 3 weeks old from a single chiropractic neck adjustment, will eventually resolve. I am pursuing physiotherapy, dry needling and acupuncture.

...week are you doing ? Are you also taking any herbal medixine (fitomedecine)? I have what I think is sommatic Tinnitus and also doing acupuncture, currently on 7th treatment. I felt some improvement on the first 4 or 5 sessions, mainly on the pulsatile portion of my Tinnitus which seemed...

I'll be interested to hear if either of those work for you. I've tried acupuncture, and I'm afraid it didn't work for me. Please do update us on how it works for you!

I did it all and spent tons of $$$: massage, (3 months), chiro (for a year), craniosacral therapy (2 months) and acupuncture (4 months). Massage made me feel relaxed, chiro - not sure, craino also relaxed me, acupuncture- I actually feel asleep on 1/2 my visits so I was relaxed. None of these...

I’m skeptic. Acupuncture has no physiological base and its efficacy has not been proven in any meta-study. 19 out of 30 cases were cured. It comes from China, specifically from a “Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine”.

Had my 3rd acupuncture session today. . I spoke to the acupuncture doctor he said I am young and ur symptoms are very weak... dont need to worry u will be cured.. I would not touch u if thought I can't help u.. Today I woke up 4 in morning the noise was bit loud. . I took half of .25mg xanax...

I actually read somewhere that with acupuncture it could take 10-15x before any results are noticed. But of course it does not work for everyone. I think in your case the stress never really stopped- problems at worked created Tinnitus and after changing your job you couldnt get relaxed because...

Just curious, what are your thoughts on TRT?

...dexamethazone will be the most potent among the 3 ingredients. My doctor told me about half of his tinnitus patients has some improvement after the injection. Cure rate in the test result seems extraordinary high for tinnitus though! Did you try acupuncture and Vinpocetine together or...

I have had Tinnitus for many years and like everyone else seeking a cure. I have tried acupuncture without success and recently tablets "Quiet Mind Plus" with no result. We keep searching. John Perth West Australia

...good candidate for the Dichonics process. Are you considering waiting until it's available on the internet? It's encouraging that the acupuncture may have helped you. It would be great if it would gradually fade away, wouldn't it? Perhaps, as the hearing loss increases, the tinnitus...

...than western medicine is invalid? Chi/prana is real, and anyone that engages in manipulating it will quickly realize this is the case. Acupuncture is obviously useful for many ailments, otherwise it wouldn't be practiced. Will Chinese medicine help tinnitus? Probably not if it's noise induced.

Thank you Ricardo, I have been reading that it will take 6 to 12 months to habituate, meanwhile I am will try anything to get better, acupuncture, hypnosis, psychiatrist, ent etc Thank you Dominic

From my acupuncture experience(s), I would say that is too short. You may want to consider asking if you could go longer (w/o any extra charge).

Just by way of an update, I ended up having 17 treatments and definitely noticed an overall reduction in volume. It's still there, but it fluctuates far more than before. Now onto acupuncture...

I'm starting this treatment on Wed. 12/21/16. I will report later for those interested.

I had acupuncture two days ago and I am very surprised to say that the last two days have been the best I have had since July. I'm not holding my breath but it's interesting.

Have done two sessions of acupuncture so far but haven't noticed any improvements yet. Also have high blood pressure and insomnia and stress so I'd be happy even if I could get some relief from that.

@Daveyrvancleef, I'm moving to England :) But it only spikes while I'm doing that motion, once I stop the spike stops. I am thinking of maybe getting acupuncture on my jaw too. Ricardo

...I’m hopeful they can help diagnose the cause. Based on my symptoms, I suspect it may be related to TMJ. I’m starting physiotherapy and acupuncture to address the TMJ, hoping it might reduce the tinnitus symptoms. Currently, my main concern is finding the right sound for sound therapy. I’m...

...I even had it. Now it's suddenly back after a one too loud session of music listening. I'm on Prednisone now and hope I can get back to baseline or at least less loud than now. It's about 50% louder than when I first got it. I will try acupuncture this weekend as well and hope for the best.

Acupuncture, reiki, healing touch therapy, chiropractic techniques, even hypnotism! (Didn't work). I've also taken a number of supplements, including pharma Gaba, systemic enzymes (Medizym), moringa oliefera, homeopatic ringing ear formula, vitamin B12, magnesium, zinc.

I'm thinking this is more like acupressure incorporating point SI 19 into the treatment. Wouldn't surprise me if the inventor had undergone a course of something similar in the past prompting him to try and fix up a device on the 3D printer.

I have eliminated caffeine and it has not reduced my PT. I am still undecided on diet and exercise but it has resulted in weight loss. Acupuncture is my new venture so I will have an update with results.

Hey @G H - Yeah, I think the acupuncture is helping me with the anxiety/depression/insomnia caused by the tinnitus, yet the tinnitus still stubbornly remains. Though I've had it for almost two months now, not as long as most people. Just an FYI, I spoke with another TCM worker who e-mailed...

It's a new device that's like the Susan Shore device, but it's undergoing trials right now, and a user here is involved and giving updates. So far from what he said it seems really promising. I guess the dB of his tinnitus has so far dropped by 7-10dB...

...dosages, or other treatments that are known to work for many people, I'd be glad to add these in. Here are the treatments I've found: Acupuncture. This is definitely the most effective treatment I've found, and I've been using it almost since the beginning of my tinnitus. Repeated...

I went once as I saw video of a certain type of Acupuncture seemed to fix it! But I went once and it didn't do one little bit. It actually made my arm hurt! So I haven't been back.

I tried Acupuncture but did not help me . I had needles for a knee injury and it worked for that but sadly not for the Tinnitus. I wonder where the needles were put in this case

@Paul10 they all sound like reasonable options, but I've been told that if you're going to get acupuncture always go for someone who practices Chinese TCM. I like 3's answer though... very honest.

...first night. I spent $7,000 for my unit, but some areas rent these out by the month for about $600 or so. I recently started doing self-acupuncture, and am getting really good results from that as well. Once you learn a handful of really easy spots, and buy some inexpensive needles, it's...

what sort of pain do you have? you have plenty of alternatives. tumeric. fish oil. glucosamine and chondroitin. mco. msm. cats claw. drink more fluids. heat and cold packs. acupuncture. massage. meditation. distraction. sleep/rest. hydrotherapy. dry needling. osteopathy.
