Tinnitus Therapy
Several of our Audiologists are Certificate Holders of Tinnitus Management (CH-TM) , as recognized by the American Board of Audiology.
CH-TM is a comprehensive tinnitus management education program providing essential information for assessing and managing patients with tinnitus or decreased sound tolerance.
Types of Tinnitus Therapy
Ringing in the ears, also known as tinnitus, is more than just an occasional nuisance after a loud concert. For millions of people, it’s a daily struggle that affects concentration, sleep, and overall quality of life. Some experience constant ringing or buzzing in both ears, while others notice it comes and goes, sometimes affecting only one ear. In severe cases, tinnitus can even overpower everyday sounds, making communication and social interactions difficult.
At California Hearing Center, we know how frustrating tinnitus can be. The constant noise can disrupt your work, relationships, and rest. Lack of sleep and heightened stress can even make tinnitus symptoms worse. The good news is—you don’t have to suffer in silence. Our Doctors of Audiology bring over 20 years of experience helping patients manage tinnitus using advanced testing, evidence-based therapies, and modern sound technologies.
What Is Tinnitus?
Tinnitus is the perception of sound in the ears or head without an external source. It is most commonly described as:
- Ringing
- Buzzing
- Hissing
- Clicking
- Roaring
The loudness and pitch vary from person to person and may change depending on your environment.
Common Causes of Tinnitus:
- Hearing loss from loud noise exposure
- Age-related hearing decline
- Inner ear disorders
- Nervous system or circulatory issues
- TMJ (jaw joint) or cervical spine problems
- High blood pressure
- Head trauma or concussion
Because tinnitus has many possible triggers, a comprehensive evaluation by a Doctor of Audiology is essential. Identifying the underlying cause is the first step toward relief.
Is There a Cure for Tinnitus?
Currently, there is no single cure for tinnitus. However, there are proven, effective ways to manage and reduce symptoms. Many patients find lasting relief through:
-
Sound therapy and tinnitus retraining therapy (TRT)
-
Hearing aids with tinnitus masking features
-
Stress and sleep management strategies
-
Lifestyle adjustments tailored to your health
With the right treatment plan, you can minimize the impact of tinnitus and regain control over your daily life.
