A common disease and how it can be treated.

Tinnitus is a very common health problem.

The number of people affected is alarmingly high. But what is tinnitus exactly? In the medical sense, tinnitus describes a condition whereby a person hears a sound in one or both ears without the sound having any particular source. The sound can be continuous or sporadic and can vary in pitch, strength and type.

The most common cause is daily stress. Hustle and bustle, loud noise from the environment and pressure stress the body and mind. Often, tinnitus accompanies cardiovascular conditions.

Problems such as tinnitus or high sensitivity to noise (hyperacusis) require exact analysis and diagnosis from a specialist so that they can be treated individually. One of the most promising therapies is "retraining", a mental technique whereby the affected person practices taking dominance away from the sound. Put simply: you must forget the tinnitus so that your consciousness has a chance to recover.

HANSATON WAVE® tinnitus technologies can help. These sound generators significantly weaken the disturbing noise perceptions. Similar to acupuncture, the disturbing stimulus is answered with a counteracting stimulus, thereby reducing its effect. The HANSATON WAVE® helps the sufferer learn to remove the tinnitus step by step.
