    Underwater Tinnitus Therapy

    @KMc24, Glad you’re doing better. Is electro acupuncture regular acupuncture needles with an electro-stimulator machine put on separately or something different?

    Acupuncture Made My Tinnitus Much Worse — Having C-PTSD Does Not Help Matters

    It's definitely no coincidence, it got worse after each Acupuncture session. I wish I had never touched the shit. First night I couldn't believe the spike, but I went for 3 sessions because I read of a success story on this forum, and it ended up ruining my life. Stack every type of tinnitus on...

    Sensitive Teeth Affecting Tinnitus?

    Acupuncture for Tinnitus

    I'm not sure if full self-treatments are possible, also it may be a bit much to do it everyday. I'd say consider it as a supplement to your own work; if someone is going to invest £50/$80 or more per week, they may as well also learn Chi Gung alongside it. Chi Gung is very easy to learn, and...

    Psychiatrist with Tinnitus: My Goal Is to Try TMS or the Susan Shore Device

    Just curious — why would you choose Xanax over Ativan? I currently take Ativan, 1 mg every night, to help with sleep. However, I have been on the same dose for eight years, and my doctor will not increase it. Would Xanax be a better option for me? Since you mentioned that you are a...

    Acupuncture for Tinnitus

    I've been doing acupuncture again - looks like my current insurance covers it. I've also been doing self-acupuncture for specific muscles around my jaw (really 'dry needling', and not acupuncture in that case). I think that's a little nutty and don't encourage it, but have been enjoying it.

    Tinnitus without Clear Cause — Related to Stress or Depression?

    Thank you for your reply. I must admit I was very hesitant about Alternative Treatments, but I am actually sure I had sincere relief by my chiropractor appointment on Saturday. My volume suddenly got lower, less screechy - so I will give acupuncture a shot as well!

    @Autumnly -- Thanks for posting this. A question that immediately comes to mind is whether 17-24 acupuncture sessions will be enough to ensure the positive results will last long-term, or will sessions need to be continued indefinitely to maintain any improvements. My best guess is that it's...

    Acupuncture Made My Tinnitus Much Worse — Having C-PTSD Does Not Help Matters

    Electrical Stimulation of the Cochlea for Treatment of Chronic Disabling Tinnitus

How that worked out I've got no idea but I've...

    None of these studies are blinded or have control groups. They're not very compelling as far as demonstrating that acupuncture does anything for tinnitus. If "laser acupuncture" has a 60% cure rate for tinnitus, I'll eat a hat.

    Has Anyone with Hearing Loss Had Their Tinnitus and Hyperacusis Fade or Experience Lowering Volume?

    That went away thankfully. I got better extremely slowly over three months, but am now in what I hope is a spike after a fire alarm went off in my house. That being said I highly recommend not doing any more electro-acupuncture.
