What is tinnitus?
Tinnitus is an involuntary sound that does not have an alliance on its definition. With the definition of a German academician ‘A result of a thousand reasons ’ can be explained . In another definition, “It is an acoustic hallucination; It is a reflex produced by the structure and emerges in the form of buzzing or sound. (Ağaç, Mehmet Emin)
Looking at the written sources; tinnitus has been making people busy and restless for 5,000 years. The problem is becoming increasingly common due to different reasons. Thousands of researches have been done on the definition, source and results of resonance, theses have been written and statistics have been developed. Nowadays, it is detected as a complaint that annoys 1 out of every 6 people. In general, the result is obvious and is expressed as a sound or buzz of unknown origin.
When you take the thousand people who have a tinnitus and want to define the tinnitus, you can define a thousand different descriptions; therefore, you will be faced with a thousand different resonance types. The resonance of each individual is not similar to the other, nor is the resonance of each individual resembling the other. For example, some people say that they hear tinnitus in the form of buzzing, and others say whistling.
What are the consequences of untreated Tinnitus?
- Tinnitus without treatment / therapy may increase in severity over time.
- It can significantly reduce the quality of life and productivity.
- May cause insomnia.
- It can cause stress, depression and anxiety.
- The problem of focus can reduce the quality of life.
How is TRT (Tinnitus Retraining Therapy) performed?
TRT application can be applied to different sounds such as music, nature sounds, ocean sounds.
If TRT therapy is to be performed with a hearing aid, the noise generated by the hearing aid is used to suppress the sound of Tinnitus with the sound generated by the device. It mixes with tinnitus and over time weakens the tinnitus.
The sound / noise generated by the hearing aid is prepared in such a way that its frequency and volume can be adjusted / intervened.
The background sound generated by the hearing aid makes the Tinnitus sound less noticeable and the resonance is taught to the brain as a trivial sound. This ringing sound, pushed into the background, gradually loses its importance over time.
The order of priority of sounds normally perceived by the brain is automatically classified as important and new sounds.
The application of the additional sound produced by the device to reduce focus can be experienced in different ways.
Many techniques have been developed to weaken tinnitus. Audiologists / Hearing Acousticians perform programs to reduce the effect of Tinnitus by selecting a suitable technique for the person.
Methods developed to reduce tinnitus stress are applied to the individual.
Earnet’ Modern and Effective Solutions for Tinnitus
The involuntary tinnitus is heard as a sound in the ear. Because it is a sound that does not actually exist but is heard, it is disturbing and significantly affects the quality of life. Depending on the sound source, the type of sound heard in the ear varies.
Earnet T-FIS algorithms can successfully calm and manage the involuntary Tinnitus.
In this therapy system, the sound produced by the hearing aid is accompanied by the Tinnitus. The goal is to weaken Tinnitus, to block it. It mixs with the sound of Tinnitus to produce a new sound. This new sound produced weakens the existing Tinnitus over time and destroys it in the process.
Developed by Earnet for the first time in the hearing industry, T-FIS has been successfully implemented. Clinically proven T-FIS has relieved Tinnitus of tens of thousands of people and made them happy.
Earnet T-FIS (Tinnitus Frequency Isolation System) offers peace of mind
If the unwanted sounds that we call Tinnitus interfere with the person’s life and make him uneasy, the quality of life and productivity of the individual decreases and he becomes unhappy.
Today, despite the high and modern technology, many diseases still can not be treated. However, with T-FIS, it is now possible to offer very relaxing solutions to the problem of Tinnitus, which is more effective, more painful and uneasy than many diseases, even though there is no disease.
The unique T-FIS technology, which we have been actively implementing since 2007, helps tens of thousands of people calm down or completely eradicate the Tinnitus problem.
If you are having Tinnitus problems, instead of giving up your quality of life and peace of mind, you can regain your calm and peaceful days by using T-FIS combined devices.
Tinnitus therapy with hearing aid
Hearing aid therapy is one of the most widely used methods in the world. Ear-Technic has taken invaluable steps towards the solution of the problem and has produced devices that can be applied to individuals with hearing / tinnitus problems using digital algorithms in the hearing industry.
Nowadays, these devices are referred to as combined, offers both able to compensate for the hearing loss and tinnitus therapy for people with tinnitus problems.
A voice, such as Tinnitus, who subsequently joins our involuntary sound sources, can turn our calm world into chaos. When people seek peace, they often want a quiet area. They enjoy the light sounds of the environment.
Because light and soft tones give us a rest and peace. For example; while sitting in the garden, gentle bird sounds and the sound of the wind blowing to the ground increase our inner peace. A piece of music listened to in a very light tone can carry our soul beyond time. For those who have tinnitus problems, unfortunately, the calm area becomes a zone of chaos and stress instead of being a peaceful area. A sound curtain enters between us and our sound sources that make us happy. In order to change this chaotic structure and regulate it to the advantage of the person, ‘voice to voice’ therapy is applied with the hearing aid.
The main purpose of the hearing aid therapy; It is to calm down the involuntary sound, to rest the soul, to bring inner peace, to achieve happiness without experiencing stress.
The most successful therapy with hearing aid
- Scientific studies have shown that hearing loss is one of the most important causes of Tinnitus.
- With compensation for hearing loss, it is stated that Tinnitus problem will be minimized.
- Among the common therapies applied in tinnitus therapy, hearing aid therapy has been observed to provide the highest success.
- T-FIS is a clinically proven, high advantage and success oriented therapy method.
Sound therapy that weakens tinnitus
Several methods of therapy have been tried to remove the involuntary disturbing Tinnitus sound from the focus point.
However, no method was as successful as voice therapy. Because the only force that can silence the involuntary sound heard is the sound.
Thanks to the hearing aid technology, this disturbing sound that occurs continuously at any time of the day and night can now be silenced.
To give an appropriate example: As the night becomes clear in the darkness of the stars, the clarity of the stars increases and the polar star can be seen very easily. When the night ends and the day comes, the stars are still unnoticed due to daylight, even though they still exist.
The brightness of the star, which appears bright white at night, is shielded by the stronger sunlight during the day.
We can simulate the method of attenuating the Tinnitus with T-FIS. The aim can be summarized as isolating the involuntary Tinnitus sound with the sound produced by the hearing aid. In this system, the clarity of involuntary Tinnitus sounds is reduced; and these sounds are shielded and isolated by another sound produced specifically.
Earnet T-FIS works on frequency basis, capturing, isolating and neutralizing involuntary sounds.
T-FIS (Tinnitus Frequency Isolation System)
Earnet is a sound therapy system with hearing aids.
The T-FIS application is available in a variety of applications.
It is a pioneering method in the industry with clinical proof and adapted to the digital system. There are some differences between hearing loss accompanied by Tinnitus and the presence of Tinnitus only and this is the main reason for the differences in this adaptation.
The implementation of the adaptation process is simple and the user feels the difference in the process.
Unless there is an exceptional case of discomfort, we are able to detect Tinnitus in as little as 15 minutes with our specially developed program.
The general conclusion is that tinnitus occurs sometimes at one frequency, sometimes at multiple frequencies, and sometimes too complex to be detected.
TRT – Tinnitus Retraining Theraphy
What is TRT?
TRT English expressed as ‘Therapy Tinnitus Retraining’ application is a defining formed from the initial letters . It is a method of accustoming to sounds again with sound therapy. It can be explained as the brain’s journey of restoring peace, forgetting the involuntary sound.
TRT therapy is the most widely used voice therapy method in the industry to deactivate Tinnitus.
