However, the most common cause for tinnitus is noise-induced hearing loss. Tinnitus can also be caused by natural hearing impairment (as in aging), as a side-effect of some medications, and as a side effect of genetic (congenital) hearing loss. In-ear headphones via sound entered directly into the ear canal itself, without any opportunity to be deflected or absorbed elsewhere are a popular cause of Tinnitus with volume set beyond modest or moderate levels. Tinnitus is not a disease, but a symptom that can result from a wide range of underlying causes: abnormally loud sounds in the ear canal for even the briefest period (but usually with some duration), ear infections, foreign objects in the ear, nose allergies that prevent (or induce) fluid drain, or wax build-up. This way you can adjust how much masking you need depending on the severity of the tinnitus you are experiencing. The custom MultiMix Player enables you to mix up to three additional Atmosphere Channels with your music selection. When used in conjunction with a sound pillow (which contains small embedded speakers) they can mask tinnitus sounds without disturbing his/her partner.Ĭalm Radio’s masker channels use soothing natural sounds such as ocean surf, rainfall, crickets, wind… that are in the white noise, pink noise and brown noise frequencies to help the auditory system become less sensitive to tinnitus, and promote relaxation by reducing the contrast between tinnitus sounds and background sound. Tinnitus maskers are commonly used by tinnitus sufferers when trying to sleep or relax as it is within these quiet environments when the tinnitus is at its most noticeable. Loud sounds can be painful and you should protect yourself, however, do not associate loud sound as “bad”, but rather, sound at a higher volume. Welcome all sounds, embrace them… all sound is good.

By playing an Atmosphere channel, like “Rain”, or “Surf”, slightly below the level of the ear ringing, your ears will gravitate to this new sound. the ringing can’t be measured because only you can hear it.Ĭalm Radio’s Atmosphere Channels can help in retraining your ears and mind. The mind remembers it and will even re-create it for you. The mind expects the habitual sound it is accustomed to. The difficulty lies when you are in a quieter environment….lacking the sound the mind perceives as “normal”. That is becomes our natural listening state. Most of the time we don’t pay attention and ignore it. We all become accustomed to sound around us. Here is a brief description of the cause of Tinnitus: From whitenoise, to pinknoise and brownnoise…depending on the severity of the ringing you are experiencing.Ĭalm Radio’s Atmosphere Channels are very important in the treatment of Tinnitus and recommended in Tinnitus Retraining Therapy.
