It's great that you are trying acupuncture and meditating. Still waiting for the outcome of the neurologist appointment. Keeping fingers crossed on that one...

Egb761 like regular ginko makes my T worse. It returns to normal after discontinuing. I've tried acupuncture including having it done in China with a grand master (he was crazy lol) and no benefits :)

I've been thinking the same thing. Although acupuncture is very complicated there should be certain safe points to do self-acupuncture on, especially if you would get an experienced practitioner to tell you what points to use so you're doing an informed decision.

Do you think the acupuncture helped at all?

I had acupuncture once for tinnitus. My experience was a positive one, but I think that I have to say that you have to be realistic at what to expect. I had about 6-8 sessions of 1 hour acupuncture. They did the acupuncture everywhere, and not just on my ears and face. The results I got where a...

After researching acupuncture more, I believe that it does help those with non-noise induced T. -- Those who have T from stress or neck/head/ear injuries seem to benefit the most. I have yet to find a noise-induced T sufferer who had a lot of success with acupuncture. -- Sure wish I would...

...or a planted testimonial. I don't blame them. The sad part is it's the researchers who could help us, but due to lack of - you guessed it - funding, they can't, when the money has gone to charlatans instead (stem cells, Mr. Mimbo Jumbo Jimbi Jam, laser, acupuncture, chiropractors, herbs, etc.)

I find significant relief from acupuncture. It lowers my volume within hours of treatment. I also have cranial sacral modality as well which is equally effective. I would not go to just any acupuncturist/cranial sacral practitioner. Not all of them are good at what they do.

Starting my acupuncture treatment in 3 weeks. In sweden there is an option to do it for free kind of, you only have to pay about 100 dollars per year, after that healthcare is free. Free but completely useless in most cases... However, there are some good practitioners too. I hope this lady is...

@Nics2drescue I know it's been a while but does your intial spike from the accupuncture go away? I'm also doing acupuncture like every 4 weeks. The last time 2 days ago. Later that day I got this new sound (like an eeee above my hiss) and it makes me pretty nervous. Not sure if it relates to...

I was thinking about this Saturday whilst I was lying there spending another £35. How often can you do it? Seems to last about 48 hours for me.

@Adriel93 if acupuncture is helping, keep doing it.

I’m thinking about acupuncture too. I’ve had loud high pitched ringing for 13 months straight.

I'm going to try acupuncture today! Let's hope it works.

I have tried twice. The first time is when i found some relief for sure (they did full body acupuncture) and about 9 sessions of one hour. The second time i did not find any relief with the acupuncture sessions (the needles where only on my face), and they where 30 minute sessions. I stopped...

What acupuncture method did you use? Can you concret?

Is it possible your tinnitus resolved due to the muscle relaxant rather than the acupuncture?

Hi Paul, I will give Zak Acupuncture a try once I am relocate back to London. Thanks for sharing. Just curious, what was the reason for your t onset? I am a singer also. Have also had to cut back for a while. I got t 4 months ago from lidocaine anesthetic up my nose in an outpatient procedure...

Hi, thanks for responding. Has the acupuncture actually helped in lowering your tinnitus?

Hi tom, nice to know you had visited Zak acupuncture clinic last year.My current job is singer. I have been a sufferer of tinnitus for months and found them debilitating, to the extent of having to take time off work and cancel many events. Dr Zak Han Acupuncture worked immediately for me, and I...

Hi @ZFire, I miss you buddy and I hope you are well. I was thinking of @Chinmoku today. I hope he's alright. If you are listening brother @Chinmoku, you are in our hearts and thoughts. Brother Z, I'll catch you around. Don't eat to much pizza at 3 am and stay awesome. Daniel

I went for acupuncture to stop smoking, many years ago, and it worked. I doubt that it can reduce or eliminate tinnitus, but perhaps it can be applied to reduce stress. Mindfulness Breathing, along with tensing and and relaxation exercises, can help to do this, as well.

...Bluetooth use TinnitusPlay app sounds, Ayurveda, craniosacral treatment, TRT 2+ times, off-label drugs such as Klonopin and Gabapentin, acupuncture, Feldenkreis, rolfing, neurologist, counselor, and more. EACH of those approaches may have taken 1 to 8 tries with different practitioners...

I've just started acupuncture and cupping to see if it helps with my tinnitus. So far the cupping has made it worse so stopped that. I'm trying Moxibustion at the moment. My tinnitus is from loud noise exposure.

One of the acupuncture needles must have hit a nerve in the muscle behind my ear. It sends shooting pain when I chew on that side! :-0

I found this study about acupuncture and tinnitus today, see attached file.

Acupuncture did nothing for me except make me feel relaxed and sleep okay. Tinnitus wise... nothing.

I am investigating the use of acupuncture to relieve symptoms or resolve tinnitus.

Definitely going to follow this thread and see if anyone else gets good results. I am going to try acupuncture starting Friday and want to evaluate each thing I try on its own. My ENT suggested the acupuncture since it has helped a couple of his patients. But sonicboom2000 really glad you...

I cease acupuncture and my T didnt improve after 6 HBOT sessions

...tinnitus volume over time. Back in the 90s, I tried all sorts of treatments—infusions, low-powered lasers, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, acupuncture, and so on. The one that gave me the most relief was TRT (Tinnitus Retraining Therapy). That’s just my personal experience, though, and I didn’t...

I’m doing acupuncture this Thursday. I am not assuming that it will cure my tinnitus, however I am hoping for some major destressing. Did you all do specific treatments for tinnitus, or just aimed at reducing stress? I have never done acupuncture, but friends recommended to do so as for one it...

There is some data that indicates acupuncture can be effective: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5771359/

@tomytl How did you get your T? Let us know if acupuncture worked for you, I could also think about it but I'm not sure if it would help T that has come from loud noise... Although my T changes if I stretch my neck so if acupuncture helps to relax muscles then it could be worth trying...

does anyone know if having acupuncture done is successful when treating tinnitus?

...in the world. I'm not surprised that you keep seeing their faces; I experience the same thing all the time. Thank you for recommending acupuncture. I'll definitely try it in the near future. For now, I think the most important thing is to adjust my psychiatric medication to help reduce these...

Anyway, no improvement in my tinnitus after several acupuncture sessions. pretty disappointing. :(

Yes! Maybe you should try reflexology, acupuncture or visit a chiropractor?

I have tinnitus for 20 yrs. but the last 6 months it has become unbearable. I started acupuncture a few days ago. Don't know if it works but I'll do anything now. Have tried vitamins, anti-depression medicine, etc. Has anyone else tried acupuncture? I'm praying that it doesn't make it...

Please let us know how acupuncture goes. I'm thinking about doing this, too.

...most". One guy said he shines some kind of laser light on his brainstem every morning. Not having a laser light, I decided to try some acupuncture needles in the brainstem area. A couple days later I went for a drive, and noticed my neck stiffness was vastly improved. I've since gotten into...

I'm skeptical, but I've never tried it and know very little about acupuncture.

Thanks Lane, yes I believe my acupuncturist has used all 3 points shown in the video.

When I have spikes they can sometimes last for a number of weeks; it may be that you just need more time. I'm sorry that you're having trouble from something that was sought out to provide relief. This makes me really rethink my curiosity on getting acupuncture for tinnitus.

Hi, LadyDi, I'll be interested to hear how the acupuncture works for you, if you continue with the sessions. I've had a number of acupuncture sessions myself, and it was calming, but (in my case) it did not help my tinnitus. In my case, the acupuncturist was trying to help me cure both...

Sadly no. Well, I've tried some supplements (Ginkgo, Zinc, b12, garlic and cod liver oil) but nothing like acupuncture or massage etc. I really should but it's hard to figure out who to go to without wasting my money. Have you had any luck yourself?

...thanks @DeanD :) Yes, it can. It can even help tinnitus from other causes - like neck tension, TMJ, or other issues. I treat myself with Acupuncture and notice improvement in my symptoms. I had an acoustic trauma and have hyperacusis. I have had improvement with symptoms of pain, plugged...

There's a description of this point on THIS VIDEO at about the 8:00 minute mark. I do self-acupuncture regularly, and do the crown point 3-4 times a week (and many others). Self-acupuncture is super easy--and super inexpensive.

Has anyone tried acupuncture and had success? I'm thinking of trying it.

http://www.theepochtimes.com/n3/1756295-acupuncture-ginger-moxibustion-effective-for-tinnitus/

...they'll say it's worth it. Those that don't get any results, or even bad results will probably say it's a waste of money. I've heard of acupuncture making tinnitus worse, but only temporarily. I've also heard that if a therapy causes tinnitus to increase, it can actually be a good sign...

I'm about to acupuncture my eardrum and squirt some EGCG and 7,8-DHF in there.

@Nadia231 & @AfroSnowman, did you both try acupuncture with electronic current connected to the needles? I tried without and it did nothing for me. I'm curious though to try it with electric stimulation.

Is the spot size of the NeoRhythm too large, or should it be placed differently on the ear or head? Also, where is the auditory cortex located in relation to the ear?

Acupuncture is a waste of time and money, and 4 sessions are next to nothing.

I've had 6 sessions of acupuncture and it hasnt helped the T :(

...ototoxic but from all my reading and talking with my ENT it would take massive amounts over a long time. In the cases that NSAIDs cause tinnitus they have told me stopping them would help. For relief, try acupuncture and CBT. These changed my life and helped with my tinnitus massively.
