Review of Cure for Tinnitus

2011-09-10T15:33:00.000-07:00

I’m going to be perfectly honest with you.

You probably don’t need to get this product for this one very reason. All these treatments can be found online for free IF you know where to look for them.

But here’s the problem and why this book is going to save you a lot of time and aggravation.

Many of the “treatments” for tinnitus that you will find online either don’t work or produce minimal results and you’re not going to find out which ones are the effective ones until you have gone through all the techniques by trial and error. This can be a very time consuming process.

What Geoff Baker, a tinnitus researcher has done, is gone through ALL of these methods to find the ones that actually work.

He has done the painful part so that all you have to do is pick up his research and use it. So yes, in essence, you are paying him for his time.

He did his studies on 40 subjects.

Out of those 40, in a couple of weeks time, 32 of them reported significant results. That’s not a bad percentage. I’ll personally take those odds any day of the week over having to live with tinnitus every day of my life.

Anyway, after all of Mr. Bakers testing, he has come up with just 11 proven techniques to greatly reduce or even eliminate your tinnitus.

If you go online and search, you will find a lot more than 11 of these so called “home remedies” most of which do nothing.

At the very least, take 5 minutes out of your life to check his website.

It won’t cost you anything and you just might finally get rid of that ringing or buzzing in your ears.

What Causes Tinnitus - Can Your Tinnitus Be Cured?

2011-08-05T16:11:00.000-07:00

There are literally millions of people all over the world that suffer from tinnitus.

Many people think it is uncommon, actually it's more common than you may realize. It's interesting to note that 18% of all Australians get tinnitus at some point in their lives. Let's take a look at what cause tinnitus, and it may help you find out if your tinnitus can be cured.

Hearing loss itself can lead to tinnitus.

1) Your cochlea is damaged. The cochlea is the portion of the ear that enables us to hear. When it is damaged it doesn't send normal signals to the brain. What happens is that the brain becomes confused when it can't hear "normal sounds" and covers that up by making it's own sound.

2) Age related hearing loss which usually occurs at about age 60.

3) - Otosclerosis - an abnormal bone growth that causes the ear bones to stiffen (this is hereditary).

4) Exposure to loud noises.

These can have temporary effects if it's caused from a one time event like a concert, or, it can cause long term damage.Repeated or prolonged exposure to loud machinery, firearms, chain saws, etc are examples of what can lead to irreversible hearing loss. If you listen to music through your IPod or MP3 player, you should realize that you can permanently damage your hearing if you play it too loudly.

Other contributing factors:

(Most of these will only cause temporary problems)

Ear blockage caused by ear wax
Ear infections
Blocked Eustachian tube (possible by a cold or sinus problem)

If you an earache when you were a child, you may have noticed a humming in your ear that was caused by an ear infection. Usually, this just clears up automatically but sometimes it does not and becomes a long term problem.

There are also certain types of drugs that can cause damage to the ear.

Of course, the higher the dose, the greater the risk. Some of these drugs are:

aspirin
antibiotics
cancer medications
diuretics
quinine
chloroquine

Just take note of these, you may not even know what all of them are, but forewarned is forearmed!

A few of the less common causes are these:

Meniere's disease - an inner ear disorder that can be caused by abnormal inner ear fluid
stress or depression - often diagnosed when tests show no apparent cause
head or neck injuries - can affect nerves or brain function related to hearing
Acoustic Neuroma - a benign tumor that grows on the cranial nerve that runs to the inner ear. This affects both balance and hearing

Worth mentioning as sometimes causing tinnitus are:

1) anemia, 2) pregnancy, 3) high blood pressure and 4) arteriorsclerosis.

If you are suffering from tinnitus, likely your main concern is what you can do to get rid of it.

While there are some prescribed medications, they can cause very unpleasant side effects and only provide short term relief. Surgery is sometimes an option, but again, not always desirable.

You can live with your tinnitus without it having to drive you crazy. Find ways to stop it in it's tracks and get rid of the terrible ringing, buzzing or humming in your ears. Visit Cure for Tinnitus and find out about the 11 techniques that can bring long term relief or even cure your tinnitus!

Tinnitus Treatment and Therapy - What Really Works?

2011-08-03T15:22:00.000-07:00

A lot of people have tinnitus.

I assume if you are reading this, you either have it or someone close to you does. I certainly know a couple of people who have this annoying condition. If you have it, you know firsthand how bad it is. You may or may know what causes tinnitus. Or if it tinnitus treatment and therapy can be successful or even cured. Hopefully this article will be helpful and give you some good ideas.

How do you define tinnitus?

Tinnitus originates from inside the ear unlike normal noises which are generated from outside the ear. One or both ears can be affected. People who suffer from tinnitus describe a ringing, humming or buzzing sound in the ear or ears. Think of the sound you hear when you hold a seashell up to your ear and you'll get the idea.

In addition to the sounds emanating from your ears, you may experience other symptoms.

You may have dizziness that can even cause you to lose your balance. Other problems you can have are headaches, ear pain and a feeling of fullness in your ear (similar to water in your ear). Not only are these symptoms annoying, but they can be debilitating. And the emotional and mental stress associated with it cannot be discounted.

Although bothersome, tinnitus is not considered a serious medical condition.

It doesn't affect your lifespan, just your quality of life. It is extremely annoying and hard to live with, particularly if you have severe headaches from it. The resulting headaches are bad enough that some people have been worried that they might have a brain tumor. Fortunately, brain tumors aren't associated with tinnitus.

So, can you cure tinnitus with treatments or therapies?

There are certainly a lot of theories concerning this. There are some prescribed medications that bring temporary relief from the symptoms. Some of the drugs that a doctor can prescribe are alprazolam, anticonvulsant drugs or intravenous lidocaine. Unfortunately they only provide temporary respite and can even cause side effects that are as bad as the tinnitus symptoms.

For many people, looking for natural tinnitus treatments and therapies may be the best solution.

Finding what natural remedies are effective is a much more attractive idea than having to resort to prescription medications with their potent side effects. Find out about 11 proven techniques to stop tinnitus at Cure for Tinnitus.
