Frequently Asked Questions
As I started to put together a collection of frequently asked
questions about Tinnitus, I realized that there is a no more
thorough Tinnitus FAQ page than that of Dr. Kevin Hogan. Dr.
Hogan answers common questions he has received in the mail and
by e-mail from thousands of people over the past few years.
I effectively utilize Dr. Hogan's method of treatment in my own
practice so that my clients have the greatest possibility of
success in reaching their goals. Dr. Hogan and I have worked
together for almost 2 years to help those who suffer from
tinnitus to find relief.
Once you have read through the Tinnitus FAQ below, you can then
research the Tinnitus Therapy page to see what options are
available to you to optimize your opportunity to get well. When
you are ready to design your own tinnitus program with a
multi-modal approach, you can email me at jennifer@theharwoodgroupny.com
to schedule a teleconsult or individual therapy.
Tinnitus Treatment and Therapy FAQ
by Kevin Hogan, Psy.D.
Tinnitus. If you have been looking for a tinnitus cure,
tinnitus treatment or therapy, please feel free to read the all
the tinnitus information below to see what is and what is not
likely to happen. Beware of anyone touting a singular and
literal instant cure for tinnitus because those situations
(where tinnitus remits quickly) are not the norm. The good news
is that people who suffer from even the most serious tinnitus
can dramatically improve. Many will achieve remission.
If you want to know how important the cause of your tinnitus is
to the process of tinnitus reduction or remission, that will be
addressed below as well. (The correct spelling for tinnitus is
not tinitis or tinitus). For information about tinnitus related
self help programs, see Here. Updated September 5, 2006 These
are common questions (some have been paraphrased or edited) I
have received in the mail and by e-mail from thousands of
people over the past few years. I think you already know that
this FAQ is not to be taken as medical advice. Please see your
medical doctor for medical care! Everything in this FAQ assumes
you have moderate to severe tinnitus. Therapy for non-intrusive
(not bothersome) tinnitus that is mild to moderate is different
than what is considered here.
Can I get cured from tinnitus too?
It depends on what you mean by cured. In my experience, if cure
means silent, near silent or significantly improved, then yes,
almost everyone can improve greatly. Some people will achieve
silence. Some won't. It's tough to know in advance. I often get
surprised.
Silence for you? Maybe. About 1/3 of my long
term clients have reported tinnitus remission as of now.
Usually a lot of work goes into these kinds of results.
(Medical doctor invested in the patient, a therapist invested
with the patient... etc.) 100% noise elimination/remission is
certain for some people. As time goes on and strategies/therapy
is more refined, the percentage of clients reporting silence at
similar time intervals in the past is slowly growing.
How did you get better?
Medication, osteopathy, hypnotherapy, habituation, self
hypnosis, ginkgo, wearing a splint for my TMJ, and major
lifestyle changes. This is covered in detail in the book:
Tinnitus: Turning the Volume Down.
And...by the way, I did lots of things that didn't work. Tens
of thousands of dollars of things that didn't work.
What was the most important part of your healing
process?
Support from my wife was very important. Xanax, Zoloft and
Osteopathy. It was probably Ginkgo that got rid of one
pulsatile sound, self hypnosis eventually took the place of
sleeping pills and helped the habituation process...and
frankly, was far more successful than I thought possible. If I
had to pick one aside from support and lifestyle changes, it
would be Xanax... but all were very important. People who "try"
only one or two with little more than guesswork to go on rarely
get well.
What is tinnitus and why can't anyone seem to
help?
Tinnitus is any noise or set of sounds heard that is generated
in the ear, hearing system or brain. Everyone from medical
doctors to alternative practitioners look in the ear for
tinnitus. That's a good place to start. However...in most
cases, it simply isn't there. That's why they "can't do
anything." Had they known to look in the right place they would
have found it. It's in the brain. ENT's have told you for
years, "There's nothing I can do, you'll have to learn to live
with it." The reasons there is nothing THEY can do is because
they currently aren't prepared to deal with problems that occur
in the brain... And...by the way, tinnitus is not a significant
brain "malfunction." More often than not it is a persistent
memory (in my experience most cases) much like phantom limb
pain. Anyone who treats tinnitus as a disorder of the ear when
testing shows nothing dramatically wrong with hearing (i.e.
total deafness), will indeed fail in helping the person who
suffers.
Can hypnosis cure my tinnitus?Hypnosis with
the tinnitus skilled therapist (5 in the USA?) in conjunction
with a well designed management and reduction program just
might do that, but hypnotherapy isn't magic. Most people
associate hypnosis with "relaxation." Forget it. If that is
purported, go elsewhere. And certainly don't see someone
because "they are local." In the United States, to my
knowledge, only Ron Stubbs (WA), Jennifer Battaglino (NY) and
Bob Bayliss (TN) are successfully working with people to this
point. A few others who knew what they were doing became
overwhelmed and burnt out. Therapists aren't trained for
tinnitus. (Who is?)Sometimes people who do hypnotherapy for a
living think that hypnosis will magically turn down noise,
today...Rarely, does it work that way. Unfortunately most
therapists (of any kind) have no significant experience in
helping people with tinnitus short or long term. (One session
of hypnosis is like taking one week of Xanax. It will do
nothing.)
The Good News: There are studies that have
been duplicated several times that note that over 69% of people
using (long term) well designed self hypnosis programming
experience long term significant reduction in tinnitus volume.
I took that research and first stubbornly used it to help
myself get well, then made available to the public just such a
program.
But why would we only utilize one modality?
Whenever possible, think multi-modal. If self hypnosis is of
interest to you, yes, I did create The Tinnitus Reduction
Program and there is info at the bottom of the FAQ.
Special Note: You don't need to be a guinea
pig to test anyone's treatment method. If you do single track
therapy you will come to me in two years telling me how much
you regret it. I hear this...every day.
Do you recommend a combination of Neurontin and
Klonopin for Tinnitus?
It appears that Neurontin combined with a benzodizapene will
help the majority of people with tinnitus. Abraham Shulman
conducted a study with good follow up that had decent results.
And when it comes to research, I believe and trust everything
he publishes. My belief is that some dosage of Neurontin
combined with a low dose of Klonopin perhaps (0.25-0.5 mg three
times per day) might cause significant improvement in the
majority of people who suffer. Whether the results will be as
good as those of Xanax alone I certainly don't know. I have had
clients report positive and negative results. If Xanax didn't
have the desired outcome after say, six months, I probably
would be very supportive of this regime as a back up plan in
the realm of medication for treatment.
Can you recommend a doctor/therapist locally here in my
country, city, state?
I used to make recommendations. All I got were a bunch of hurt
tinnitus sufferers. So no, I probably won't recommend someone,
especially "locally" or "near you." Tinnitus is not a sore
throat that anyone can help you with. It's the most complex
issue a person can suffer from because there is essentially no
external data to work with and the distress levels are often
maddening.... Just about everyone I referred to therapists and
doctors in the 90's wrote back and told me after a couple of
months that they were making no progress. Their
doctor/therapist wouldn't help or didn't know what to do.
Worse: A lot of people blew thousands of dollars for nothing.
Now I tell people: DO go see your doctor. She CAN help you.
...She may not know what to do because she simply wasn't
trained in tinnitus reduction work. If you have severe
tinnitus, prepare to travel for a three day session, perhaps
with someone I've trained and coached. Locations: Seattle (Ron
Stubbs), Jennifer Battaglino in NY, and North Carolina
(Elizabeth Nahum) and in Tennessee (Bob Bayliss). That's it at
the moment. In England, contact Mair Llewellyn at the Tickhill
Clinic. My friend Terry Watts in London has experience as well.
So please, don't ask me for a referral, except to these people
with a proven track record. Talk to your medical doctor
FIRST.
Read this FAQ. See your doctor ask her for help. Ask your
doctor to visit this page. I work with a lot of physicians,
internists, audiologists, ENT's, even nurse practitioners, and
other great people. If they (or anyone) give you the cold
shoulder, go to another doctor who will do everything in her
power to help you. No one but you is inside of your head.
Therapists, doctors, whoever...no one knows what severe
tinnitus is like until they have had it. So for the most part,
...sorry to say...they will possibly give you marginal
advice.... Ask them to help you and YOU take control of your
therapeutic tasking and future. It's your life and believe me,
if they haven't experienced this...they have NO CLUE what it is
like to be in YOUR HEAD.
I have tinnitus: what should I do?
If you’ve had tinnitus less than two years, you need to see
your doctor for an MRI. I have seen cases where a person became
deaf due to incorrect medical treatment. Get a CT scan if you
can’t afford an MRI. An MRI will reveal more about the brain to
the astute professional though, so, I’d opt for an MRI. Either
test will find a tumor and anyone who has been in this business
has seen the results of what can happen when an MRI is not
given and the worst case happens. Both of my clients who had
tumors had more typical tests when their tumors apparently were
in their infancy. Call me overly protective of my clients, or
promoting unnecessary tests, I won’t see ANYONE who hasn’t
ruled out tumor with 100% certainty. 2 in 1000 or however many
people I’ve seen in the last few years is two too many. Don’t
worry, it will almost certainly come back negative and you will
feel great once it’s over!
Then have a blood chemistry performed. Are you diabetic? Are
you hypoglycemic? Is there an imbalance we need to be aware of?
See if getting this area of your life in balance reduces
tinnitus volume.
Find out if you are zinc deficient or anemic. Zinc deficiency
does happen sometimes among my elderly clients but has never
occurred in one of my under-50 clients. I’m not a mineral
expert, just find out and if you’re in need of supplement, ask
your medical doctor what to do.
Get an audiological work up and spend some time with your ENT.
It makes complete sense to get checked out thoroughly. Find out
where your hearing loss is, if you have any. About half of my
clients have some minor hearing loss. (I'll be frank: I see no
correlation between hearing loss and moderate to severe
tinnitus OR hyperacusis. None.) Never assume your tinnitus is
being generated in your "hearing system." Get all the tests you
need. It’s your life and your hearing and your suffering. I
wouldn’t pay a lick of attention to anyone who says, "Oh it
doesn’t matter, it probably isn’t X". Nonsense, find out what
it IS.
Do you work in silence or in a loud
environment? Both are going to wreak havoc on
tinnitus. Too quiet, you need to add sound until your daily
environment is around 50dB plus or minus. Same with your
nightly environment. If you’re a farmer or a construction
worker or in an occupation where you are exposed to noise all
the time, start wearing ear protection now. But NEVER stay in
silence for extended periods. Whistle if you have to. The brain
must have alternative auditory stimulus if at all possible to
help expedite your tinnitus to reduce in volume and distress.
If you are deaf, and a lot of my clients are, then you must
learn to do external focusing and self hypnosis, regardless of
medications.
How does someone become a client of yours?
I have not seen clients for therapy (with rare exception) in
the last two years. I will not be taking new in house clients
next year. You can get a teleconsult with me (or someone I have
complete confidence in) to put you on track. See Tinnitus
Teleconsult with Kevin Hogan. Set up a teleconsult (email me,
please don't call). Sometimes this 90 minutes is what someone
needs to get the information and right approach that will
change the rest of their life. I look at where you have been,
are and what you can do now, and with who. In some cases I'll
do a follow up or two with someone if necessary. Specifics that
you can't get in a FAQ.
What do you think of masking therapy?
It's fine....I suggest the "habituation" approach in constrast
to "masking". There are days when masking is very attractive
but on whole, habituation is probably a better route in my
opinion.
What do you think of vinpocetine for tinnitus
reduction?
Possible. Certainly not necessary to go this route prior to the
work we will do, but it is an option. There are no studies but
I have had some positive anecdotal reports from clients.
What do you think of habituation for tinnitus and
hyperacusis?
Habituation is an obvious necessity for EVERY person that can
hear, that has tinnitus. My definition of habituation is
different than others though. People who fail in TRT
habituation that come to see me failed because they shockingly
didn't like another sound of tinnitus in their ears/head. There
are a lot more ways to habituate tinnitus than with a pair of
Starkey’s. Pleasant classical music, environmental sounds and
babbling brooks pumped into my head 24 hours a day for two
years did me wonders. That’s where I suggest everyone start,
except those who can’t wear headphones for various reasons.
Then you look at generators. The vast majority of people won't
need more than an iPod to habituate.
Habituation is more difficult but by no means impossible when
the person has hyperacusis. Hyperacusis is VERY beatable. Most
people recover with little sensitivity later. Interesting,
though hyperacusis starts as more difficult to deal with (from
my point of view as consultant), it tends to yield first!
Should I have the ______ surgery for my
tinnitus?
Before doing anything that can give you permanent tinnitus...do
the things that work. Except for tumor removal, I have never
seen a client that needed surgery, experimental or otherwise,
for tinnitus alone. It simply is a risk that is not likely
necessary.
What do you think of Xanax? Will I become addicted?
Will it get rid of my tinnitus? Does Xanax cause
tinnitus? For me, it was a miracle drug. It saved
my life. (Me and thousands of others.) Took several months to
"kick in" for me personally. Five or six. For most people I've
worked with it takes about 1-3 months, and that makes sense. If
a person has severe tinnitus or hyperacusis and there are no
contraindications, it's the most logical starting point. One
study shows about 3/4 of people using Xanax experience almost a
halving in the noise volume at the end of the third month of
usage. That's faster, on average, than any other option you
have right now. It mirrors my experience with clients....I've
read of addiction, devastation and destruction. I've yet to see
it in thousands of clients. If you have profound tinnitus,
Xanax (and medications like it) will probably save you from
something far worse than the remote possibility of
addiction.
Xanax doesn't appear to directly cause tinnitus to reduce in
volume. What appears to happen is Xanax reduces the fear
response and causes the body to be calm (or even tired). That
calm "state" or "response" is ocnditioned to the tinnitus and
eventually there is no need for the brain to attend to the
sound. It becomes background and more often than not, the
volume comes down as a secondary and not a primary effect.
Could you become addicted? I wish it would have been a
consideration for the brother of one of my clients. Both had
severe tinnitus. Their doctor wouldn't prescribe Xanax, the
noise became so horrifying the man committed suicide. The woman
(my client) went to bat for herself and worked with another
doctor and me. Today she is almost completely silent. The risk
of addiction is almost zero, the danger of suicide for many is
ever present. And as noted earlier, Xanax without a support
system, especially friends, family, medical... will help, but
be realistic. The human animal needs connections with others
and tinnitus takes time...and compassion. Addiction: As soon as
my first client in 11 years has experienced it, I will announce
it here.
Caveat: Whenever a doctor prescribes a medication to be "taken
as needed," then you have the birth of potential addiction.
Xanax should be taken regularly and consistently so addiction
doesn't stand a chance.
Does Xanax cause tinnitus? Xanax does NOT
cause tinnitus. In fact it has a negative tinnitus effect. In
clinical trials for panic disorder, 7% of people who take Xanax
report they had tinnitus vs. 11% taking a placebo for the same
problems. Effectively this means that the brain is powerful at
creating problems (nocebo...not placebo effect) Xanax in low
doses is a safe and effective starting point for your tinnitus
reduction program.
Anyone who tells you Xanax causes tinnitus, benefits from you
continuing to have tinnitus.
I read in a new book that Xanax (benzodiazapenes) reduce brain
plasticity and reduce the effectiveness of habituation
(TRT).
Garbage. Xanax (alprazolam) will cost you a grand total of $100
for the first year, if you require it for that length of time.
Even if you use the medication for two years before your
tinnitus is remitted or much quieter, that's under $200!!!
Generators will run you about $3000. Generators sound like many
people's tinnitus and actually can cause more harm than good.
Xanax/Klonopin/Ativan helps most people get dramatic reduction
in volume and sometimes remission, without further treatment.
Not profitable for "providers"...and it will give you your life
and sanity back. People who haven't had tinnitus cannot
comprehend this. I've read authors who think they know what
they are talking about...and haven't a clue.
Whenever you see someone try and scare you that an inexpensive,
virtual side effect free, and proven method for reducing and/or
eliminating tinnitus and the distress it causes is
terrible...ask what their motivation is for causing the fear
first...THEN figure out what's in it for them if they succeed
in scaring you.
Reality: Anti anxiety medications (including
Klonopin, Ativan, Xanax, etc.) help most people. They don't
interfere with any successful therapy. Period.
What about anti-depressants?
I think after Mark Sullivan, I was the first person to wave the
anti depressant flag. Of course! In my opinion, an excellent
choice for moderate to severe tinnitus suffering, if there are
no contraindications. Some people say to start with Pamelor,
but I would disagree and go with the SSRI’s like Zoloft, Paxil,
Effexor, Celexa or Lexapro. Please read that last sentence
again. I've had a lot of email from people who didn't get it
right the first time.
Thanks....Some of my clients have experienced tinnitus
elimination with Prozac. But, prozac may have a small tinnitus
side effect that is larger than placebo, granted not
significant, but I’m conservative. I’d start with Zoloft or
Lexapro, but I’m not an MD. MD's have no problem prescribing
anti-depressants because they are not "tracked" thus you will
have no problem here.
Pamelor has a proven track record. (I no longer encourage using
it because of significant side effects.) The vast majority of
my clients who have used tricyclics do get benefits from the
tricyclics and even more from the SSRI’s... and of course you
don't use them at the same time. BUT Pamelor also has more
impressive side effects than SSRI's and say, Effexor which is
very helpful and has few side effects.
Antidepressants probably don't cause tinnitus to go down by
themselves. It appears two things happen with these
medications. First the "anti-OCD" effect of the medication
seems to cause people to "quit checking" their tinnitus.
Secondly, the medications do succeed in reducing depression
which can be profound...and allow the person to return to
normal life as quickly as possible.
NOTE: For most people that are going to
improve, tinnitus will INCREASE when you take an antidepressant
for the first few days or maybe even week or two. It comes back
down. (You can try and keep the volume up by attending to it
and avoiding the other things necessary to cause reduction!)
This means the medication is doing it's job in the brain. Don't
become upset when the volume increases. Assume it will. The
medication is "plowing snow from the highways" in your brain.
It takes time to clear paths so they are neat and clean. Give
it a few days. I remember these few days myself...they drove me
nuts and weren't easy...and they were worth every second.
What do people experience when they take
anti-depressants and anti- anxiety medication? Some
people experience a locational change in their tinnitus.
(That's the first very good sign I look for, by the way.) Some
people experience a temporary increase in volume, which we
would expect, and now I simply let the MD’s I work with know
that this is actually likely and also almost certain to be
temporary (a few days). Anti-anxiety's most common side effect
seems to be drowsiness in my clients. Antidepressants most
common side effect seems to be sexual reduction of pleasure
which happens to about 4 in 10 of my clients.
What is most important is how it changes the brain in the long
term. Antidepressants will reduce the amount of obsessing and
compulsive checking to see if tinnitus is louder, quieter,
different...or just to listen. I suggest measuring your
tinnitus five times daily. Other than that, put attention
externally. If you do this you are on the right road.
Anti-depressants are likely to be a CRUCIAL piece of getting
well. Get past the first 1-5 days of increased noise and you
win. Be stubbornly patient.
Tinnitus is causing me disability. I can't function.
Will you help me get compensation for medical
purposes? No. You want to get back to work or to
some other work as quickly as possible. (A few days at most.)
The people who get well from tinnitus are the people who are
most grossly absorbed in major projects that require "spinning
a lot of plates."
What about ginkgo biloba? My rule of thumb
is this: If you have tinnitus that varies in volume during the
day or is pulsatile, you may want to try ginkgo for a few
months. Like the medications, it will take time to "kick in."
Two, three months even before results begin. You should know
there is no actual evidence to support ginkgo as a therapeutic
tool for tinnitus. I am favorable to the use of it because of
my personal experience and a few anecdotal reorts from clients.
It's expensive. If money is an issue there are better places to
invest in your tinnitus reduction. If money is no issue, I
would (and did) see what happens over a few months.
What about biofeedback and relaxation
techniques? Biofeedback is a subfield of hypnosis.
Who relaxes or can relax when you have severe tinnitus?? I
certainly couldn't. Most of my clients can't. Biofeedback is
useful in stress reduction and there is evidence that shows
that biofeedback, while less effective than hypnosis, is more
effective than Elavil in tinnitus reduction. For people with
mild to moderate tinnitus, relaxation oriented self hypnosis is
very helpful. Most people with severe tinnitus can't come close
to relaxing which is why I developed the Tinnitus Reduction
Program. (See below for details.)
What about acupuncture? Not proven to help.
(Though good for headaches according to recent research.)
What about other herbs? Not proven to help.
Save your money.
What about vitamins and minerals? Magnesium
and zinc may help people deficient in these areas. Calcium
might help. (It helps a lot of things believe it or not!) There
is some reason to believe that B-Vitamins can help us cope with
stress better. For most: Highly over rated, very expensive, and
very likely won't help.
What about ear drops, and all of the remedies sold on
the internet? You mean the scams? They are ALL
scams. Want a list of tinnitus scams? Type in tinnitus at
google and look at the right hand column. All but two that I
looked at today were a rip off. PLEASE save your money. If they
have a remedy, they must have a double blind placebo study. Ask
for it. (It doesn't exist.) Don't ask for testimonials. Ask for
a double blind placebo study performed by an independent group.
Again, there are none. Period.
What about chiropractic? Maybe...For
tinnitus, I would advise you to see a Doctor of Osteopathy
(D.O.)
What about psychotherapists? Same as
hypnotherapists. Most are great people that just don't have the
laser beam specialized knowledge to help tinnitus
sufferers.
What about medical doctors? Most are just
not knowledgeable about how to help tinnitus sufferers. I can't
tell you how many times I've read a letter from a physician
stating that the patient's tinnitus has no medical basis and
therefore, there is "nothing more I can do". This is all
preposterous. The medical doctor is one signature away from
most people being 1/2 as loud in 90 days. There are MANY
medications that can help you. Your medical doctor isn't
obligated to work with you and you aren't married to your
medical doctor. Become a proponent of getting well and seek the
help of those who will help you. (Ask your doctor to stop off
here for 10 minutes! Good doctors will take the time for
you.
If you don't like your therapist or doctor, dump them. You need
someone who will help you long term. Tinnitus isn't a sore
throat or an ear ache. It's work. If they help you, keep them.
Your M.D. should be knowledgable, willing to learn FROM YOU...
what you are learning and that you are willing to perform some
trial and error. Treating tinnitus isn't just science. There's
quite a bit of artistry in the long term process. It isn't just
hypnosis or Xanax or TRT. It's a long term relationship in a
lot of cases...in most cases.
Jack Vernon of the ATA told me...do you
agree? Jack Vernon is the person who talked with me
13 years ago. Jack and I have spoken only that one time. Jack
is very knowledgable about tinnitus. His approach is somewhat
different in some respects. In others, we are very similar. If
you have talked with Jack, follow his recommendations... Great
human being.
I've been thinking about suicide. If a
person has severe tinnitus and is suicidal, they should see a
psychiatrist or medical doctor, get treated both
therapeutically and pharmacologically, then call me after the
above criteria have been met. This is my most common client.
I've been where you are. It stinks. Remember: You will improve
if you do those things that lead to improvement.
How did you come to know so much about tinnitus when
the rest of the world seems lost? I had severe
tinnitus for 2.5 years, finally figured how to get better with
the unwavering assistance of Chris Coleman, Director of Hope
for Hearing in California and others...Today I have no
tinnitus. (I only do therapeutic consultation work with people
who have tinnitus, and those consultations are coming to an
end.)
My LONG TERM experience from beginning to elimination or
substantial reduction with tinnitus sufferers is second to only
a very few: I work with some of the most severe cases of
tinnitus sufferers in the United States.
Why write the book? It's not possible to
answer 20-30 e-mails and letters per day any more. Now someone
can go to Amazon.com and for next to nothing get the basic
answers I would give. Please, read the book first, then e-mail.
Your questions will be much more fine tuned after reading the
book. (You're going to waste $10,000 on scam approaches if you
haven't already, please, spend $20 or go to the library for
heaven's sake.)
Do you hate getting all the e-mails? No, I
hate not being able to help and answer everyone personally. I
spend 1-2 hours daily corresponding with whoever I can get to
in the email box. It is not possible to do more, so forgive
brevity if I can respond to you. People aren’t "bothering me."
I do get down because I am not a non-profit organization with a
staff of people to answer all the inquiries. Sometimes it makes
literally me cry when I have to choose between my kids and my
e-mail. I will always help but you need to be patient. Please
do read the book and begin your self therapy as soon as
possible.
How can I get a copy of your book Tinnitus: Turning the
Volume Down? You can go to Tinnitus: Turn the
Volume Down
Please do not email before reading the book. It answers most
questions most people have. Please read the book prior to a
teleconsult. It will save an enormous amount of time (and your
money). If you want to get started in a logical fashion, use
The Tinnitus Reduction Program below. It's cheap and will save
you a ton of money in consultations with me and others. In all
probability I will refer you to his colleague Jennifer
Battaglino in New York for a teleconsult and future therapeutic
work.

TINNITUS REDUCTION PROGRAM (includes the book!)
Click on Photo to go to
Dr. Hogan's site
WHO SHOULD OWN THIS PROGRAM?
Anyone with tinnitus who would like to reduce the volume of
their tinnitus through the use of self-hypnosis CDs, along with
other strategies presented in the program.
The Tinnitus Reduction CD Program has helped thousands of
individuals reduce the distress associated with tinnitus. In
most cases, when individuals utilize the Tinnitus Reduction
Program as part of a multi-modality approach to tinnitus
reduction they experience long term improvement.
"I had meant to write before as I have had your tapes from July
now. They have been wonderful and saved my sanity. My tinnitus
is greatly reduced and my Meniere's under control. I return to
your tapes as I find them excellent and I use them every night
to go to sleep with. Thank you." Anne Clarke
Your six CD program includes three hours of up to date
information about how to reduce the volume and distress of your
tinnitus. This portion of the program is updated regularly.
In addition to the reporting you will receive of what is
working in the area of medicine, tinnitus retraining therapy,
and other modalities, you will receive four self hypnosis CD's
specifically designed by Kevin Hogan which assisted him in the
elimination of his tinnitus. The first two CD's in the program
are the most up to date information about tinntus relief you
can get. Now, you can utilize the same program as part of a
multi-modal effort in reducing your tinnitus volume.
Kevin Hogan is a psychotherapist specializing in hypnosis, who
didn't stop with just one possible way to experience silence. A
multimodal approach is the only way to assure your success in
reducing your tinnitus volume and the intense emotional
distress that comes from the tinnitus. If you are sick of
hearing that "nothing can be done" and "you'll have to learn to
live with it," this is the starting point.
The program includes the brand new revised edition of,
Tinnitus: Turning the Volume Down which includes the latest
developments in reducing tinnitus and hundreds of citations for
further research.
Tinnitus Reduction CD Program and the 200 page book, Tinnitus:
Turning Down the Volume
