Lifestyle
Sound Therapy / White Noise
for Tinnitus
Using background sound (white noise machines, nature sounds, apps) particularly at night to reduce the contrast between tinnitus and silence.
How it works
Sound enrichment reduces the signal-to-noise ratio of tinnitus, making it less perceptible. Prevents the silence-amplification that worsens tinnitus perception.
What to watch for
Sound level should be below the tinnitus volume — the goal is to partially mask, not fully cover, the tinnitus. Avoid very loud masking which can damage hearing.
