New Tinnitus Therapy Demonstration April 16 at UCLA Westwood

Los Angeles, Calif: (MMD Newswire) April 11, 2011 -- Dr Murray Grossan, Ear Nose and Throat specialist for tinnitus, will be speaking to the Los Angeles Tinnitus Group on Saturday April 16 at UCLA. The public is invited.

He will discuss his tinnitus treatment method based on neuroplasticity, which means that brain functions can be changed for tinnitus relief.

Although his book for tinnitus is titled Stressed? Anxiety? Your Cure is in the Mirror, DrGrossan points out that stress is not a cause of tinnitus.

Usually tinnitus can come from loud noise exposure, inner ear infections, hypertension or certain drug toxicity. But there are many instances where it can come solely from the brain itself. For example, when a surgery or trauma injures the hearing nerve, tinnitus can start, even though the ear is no longer connected to the brain.

According to the American Tinnitus Society, fifty million persons experience tinnitus; but ten million suffer from tinnitus.

His program from the Stressed? Anxiety? book uses a method of changing the circuits so that the tinnitus no longer a symptom. Of his hundreds of tinnitus patients, his method has been successful without resorting to sedatives or tranquilizers.

The important thing for the patient is to realize that building new pathways is no different than learning a better tennis serve or golf stroke. The book gives the exercises that work for tinnitus relief. Like having a full time coach to help your tennis serve, Dr Grossan uses a mirror to tell you when you do the exercise right. "With the mirror to guide you, you have your coach with you seven days a week."

As part of the demonstration, you are asked to bring your own portable mirror.

I’m in. I’ve never seen anything that works. We had a Sheriff in VA take his own life because of it.

Count me in as well. Can’t enjoy a quiet evening on the porch anymore; the buzzing is overwhelming at times.I’m hoping that cigar smoking is the cure; I’ll keep you posted.

Every time is see one of those commercials for tinnitus cures I get tinnitus!

“Can you hear it? The constant ringing?” They ask!

Krap! I do now!
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
I am going on 50 years of constant ringing, so loud that at times I swear the people next to me can hear it.

It ‘sounds’ like a ‘steady carrier - zero bead’.

Don’t laugh about the power of suggestion though.

I had been successful for years ‘whiting it out’ (not meant to be a racist term) but the older I get, the harder it is. (to white out, yes words can mean other things).

However, it is so bad that I can ‘stop hearing it’ and if I say “Wow, that is better”, it comes back -

I attribute mine to ‘blowing my sinuses’ up and way to many cases of earphones being to ‘tight’ and getting many constant blasts to the ears.

Of course, that was back when I was ‘bullet proof’ and nothing hurt or registered......

Biggest mistake of one’s young life is taking the ‘quicky physical’ when being discharged - of course, there is no doubt in my mind that is what the ‘powers that be’ had in mind, get as little of your medical maladies on paper as possible - keeps you from making a claim in later life...
Or at the very least puts up many roadblocks ....

Add me to the ping list.

Mine comes from 3 years on an Air Craft Carrier.
My bunk was directly under the flight deck between the port catapult and the angle deck. So I got them both landing and taking off.

I've made peace with the noise in my head. I refuse to acknowledge it is there and it sulks off.
