TENT-A2 apparently had similar results. So that's a great sign. Honestly I'm not asking for a cure, I'm just hoping a reduction in either volume or presence. If it can knock off the spikes I get from anxiety, or just quieten them, it will be well worth 2-3K for me.I think the most important thing here is efficacy. Whether it launches in March or July or December of this year is going to be completely forgotten within a year. What won't be forgotten is whether it worked or not. And their ability to replicate TENT-A1's success in a different patient group is awesome news.
This chart is depressing.Indeed. But then again, tinnitus is generally very little written or talked about in the media. I wonder if most health journos are even aware of Neuromod's existence yet. It's interesting to see how much press they will get if the treatment gets established with a good success rate.
In the past year, here is what BuzzSumo reports when you search for "tinnitus" - with regards to social engagement levels for content on the internet:

I can pretty much assure you once this thing is launched in Europe/EU it'll soon make it to the States. The Americans won't be left behind with new cutting edge medical technology, that isn't how they roll.I've left several comments on this thread about having patience toward this release. Between the tinnitus and the waiting I'm losing my mind. It's getting harder to wait for this and remain calm. If this doesn't work for me it's going to destroy me. I also fear this thing never hits the market in the US.
None of us are really sure about Aidan's credibility given it's likely Neuromod went to the local cemetery and exhumed him for the trial.Sorry for not being up-to-date with the thread, but has anyone mentioned the fact that this guy said it didn't decrease the volume but only the "intensity"? Seems a bit useless to me to be honest.
Yes, it probably gives a good overview of types of improvements. One was cured, one with less intensity, one with less volume. And I think all of them would benefit further with additional weeks of therapy.Legit howling @Bam. I guess it's good they didn't just pick the best looking and most successful clients for testimonies.
I can't understand if what I hear is a hiss or a 15000 Hz tone seems to be very close.This is a pure tone: http://www.szynalski.com/tone-generator/
Well sometimes I wake up with very soft and soothing pink noise tinnitus that can turn into piercing dentist drill that makes me cringe.But what does "decreased intensity" even mean with maintained volume. Sounds like a habituation testimonial lol.
Yeah well, screw you, buddy. What was even the point of this post besides telling me off?It was already posted a couple of pages back. Pay attention, buddy!
Jup:Hey, with 85 pages currently on this obviously popular thread, can anyone distill the bottom line on this for me?
That's not a very nice thing to say. Would you care to share an image of yourself so we can judge your appearance?None of us are really sure about Aidan's credibility given it's likely Neuromod went to the local cemetery and exhumed him for the trial.
In short, it may the first ever treatment that will actually turn down the volume or alleviate your tinnitus. In the history of tinnitus treatments, no treatment has ever proved this before. It's all very exciting. I see you're new to tinnitus, but you may have joined the club at a good time. As a long term sufferer, myself am cautiously optimistic as I've been here before with upcoming new treatments, however plenty of reasons to be optimistic with Neuromod.Hey, with 85 pages currently on this obviously popular thread, can anyone distill the bottom line on this for me?
Thank you so much! Just the info I needed.Jup:
- Neuromod (formerly: MuteButton, hence thread title) is a new tinnitus treatment, coming this year from a company based in Dublin
- It works with bimodal neuromodulation, using audio and stimulating nerves through the tongue
- Apparently, 80% of clients in the trial (TENT-A1) got "some relief", whereas two/thirds got "clinically significant positive results"
- Awaiting results of TENT-A2
- Seems to work specifically well for those with reactive tinnitus / hyperacusis
- Launch: sometime in 2019 in Ireland, with apparently sometime in September stretching in a number of EU countries including Belgium.
- Majority of the thread is people asking when it is released already

The lo-fi nature of the hardware is what makes me optimistic. We're not talking about bionic implants or gene therapy here. It's all in the biohacking "software", which is effectively a trial-and-error code-cracking style endeavor. When going that route, the worst results always come first. As the principles of cause and effect are eventually understood, the results improve, but the hardware stays the same. The trick is not to get discouraged in the early stages before all avenues have been tested.It seems like the device itself is secondary to the programming and timing. I suspect that at the end of the day that's what's going to make the difference.
