For the people who have successfully reduced their Tinnitus, I’m curious what actually helped?
6 Likes
- Reduce your stress and anxiety levels.
- Clean up your diet; avoid sugar spikes.
- Get some exercise.
- See a chiropractor for any neck-related issues.
- Focus on getting better sleep.
Who are these people actually seeing a reduction? They must have had very mild cases to begin with.
Everything mentioned above, plus make sure to drink plenty of water…
The 20 million treatment worked well for me, cutting it down by about 50%.
Once I managed my anxiety, the Tinnitus settled down too. It sounds like a cliché, but accepting it and ‘treating it like a friend’ helped more than you can imagine. Not fighting it as a threat makes a huge difference. I use rain sounds from YouTube for masking to help me sleep soundly. Sleep is essential, as the anxiety from not sleeping because of the noise is the worst part.
I used to suffer severely, but I don’t ‘suffer’ from Tinnitus anymore. I had a really bad case after Covid in June 2022, but I’ve made a massive recovery and some days I don’t even think about it. I could hear it everywhere before. My approach involved detoxing from spike proteins (using the Dr. Peter McCullough protocol) and taking a high-quality Magnesium Threonate and Bisglycinate complex. I also started using BrainProtect to support my recovery. People often get frustrated and dismiss those who recover by calling their cases ‘mild,’ but mine certainly wasn’t. It’s possible to have loud tinnitus and not let it make you suffer.
The first step is improving your sleep and not overthinking the sound. Don’t let it rule you. Keep your anxiety as low as possible and stay focused on work or other activities. It’s difficult at the start, but you eventually habituate. I should mention there isn’t a standard cure, but for some, it really can go away, so there is a bit of hope.

Just slowly frying my brain with too many meds. 
It’s worth it though.
Craniosacral therapy has been helping me. I had multiple tones; the high pitch is still there in both ears, but it’s not too bad—just a bit annoying when I focus on it. However, the low-frequency Morse code sound in my right ear that lasted 9 months has completely vanished. It started to fade when I began treatment and improved between sessions. Since my last appointment, the low pitch is totally gone! My therapist mentioned I was very tight on that side. I’ve also been taking a lot of magnesium threonate lately, which might be a factor.
The advice below is very helpful. I didn’t change my diet, but the most important thing was using sound therapy daily for a few weeks. Get some earbuds and listen to pink noise (this will save you a lot of money). Secondly, try to stay as calm as possible. Finally, tell yourself that you control the tinnitus, not the other way around. Give the pink noise a month to train your brain. I’ve had it for over two years, and most days I don’t even notice it. Treble Health was great to work with!
Try this: https://youtu.be/F8OyASCQyYY?si=oihrok9KYTYmTVpd. It’s a simple technique involving tapping your fingers on the back of your head. According to the video, it interrupts a nerve. The comments are full of people swearing by it. I only get tinnitus after loud music, and this makes it go away much faster. It’s surprising how few people mention this here; it might be the most effective method available, even if it’s not a guaranteed cure.
