How can I fit in treatment if I am working?
Since the Neuromonics device is lightweight and compact (approximately the same size and weight of a cell phone), it is easy to carry around. Treatment is provided at comfortable listening levels so that it can be used in the course of normal daily activities, including work. Listening time does not need to be all at once, but can be broken up into several sessions during the day and fitted into travel, lunch or quiet work times.Before doing anything that can give you permanent tinnitus.do the things that work. Except for tumor removal, I have never seen a client that needed surgery, experimental or otherwise, for tinnitus alone. It simply is a risk that is not likely necessary.
What if the Treatment does not meet my expectations?
The results from your assessment visit will allow us to determine if you are a suitable candidate for the Neuromonics Tinnitus Treatment. A sense of relief while using the treatment may be achieved within 1-30 days of your fitting appointment.

I have been told there is nothing that can be done for tinnitus. What has changed?
Over the last decade or so, understanding of the various causes and factors that contribute to tinnitus perception and disturbance has improved tremendously. It is now understood that tinnitus is not a hearing problem, but it is a neurologically-based condition.
How do I pay for my Neuromonics Tinnitus Treatment?
We conveniently accept VISA or MC purchases in our clinic, personal checks or payment by arrangement with a hearing aid financial plan, if you qualify. The American Tinnitus Association ( offers a Tinnitus Assistance Fund for economically disadvantaged individuals and you might like to request a Fund Application at their website. Neuromonics does offer a free 30 day trial period for all new Neuromonics users, which we honor at our clinic.It depends on what you mean by cured. In my experience, if cure means "silent," near silent or significantly improved, then yes, almost everyone can improve greatly.
Why can't I just use my MP3 Player?
Although normal music may provide a distraction from tinnitus, it is not a treatment with long term benefits. With the Neuromonics treatment, the music is spectrally modified and customized with an embedded neural stimulus based upon the patient's tinnitus and audiological profile. Through research, we are aware of the importance of auditory stimulation of high frequencies; this stimulation is not possible with MP3 Players because the sound files stored in MP3s are clipped.Tinnitus is any noise or set of sounds heard that is generated in the ear, hearing system, or brain. Most people who experience severe or moderate tinnitus, that we've worked with, experience tinnitus that is generated in the brain even when the original cause was sound or otoxic drugs. If you haven't figured it out yet, everyone from medical doctors to alternative practitioners look in the ear for tinnitus. That's a good place to start.
Can I have the Neuromonics Tinnitus Treatment even if I use a hearing aid?
It is possible to use the Neuromonics device independently of your hearing aid during quiet times eg. when you are reading or trying to sleep. Your clinician would be able to work out the most appropriate timing with you. You may have an improved ability to use your hearing aid after completing the Neuromonics Tinnitus Treatment, as your loudness sensitivity is likely to improve.We conveniently accept VISA or MC purchases in our clinic, personal checks or payment by arrangement with a hearing aid financial plan, if you qualify.
