hearing aids o when not in use, especially

Tinnitus masker
Tinnitus masker uses broadband noise to
provide temporary relief of tinnitus.
Tinnitus masker warnings
The tinnitus masker is a broadband sound
generator. It provides a means of sound
enrichment therapy that can be used as
part of a personalized tinnitus management
program to provide temporary relief from
tinnitus.
The underlying principle of sound
enrichment is to provide supplementary
noise stimulation which can help defocus
your attention from your tinnitus and avoid
negative reactions. Sound enrichment,
coupled with instructional counseling, is an
established approach to managing tinnitus.
Air conduction hearing aids with the
tinnitus masker are to be tted by a hearing
healthcare professional familiar with the
diagnosis and management of tinnitus.
