Tinnitus: Tinnitus Phase-Out
built 296 days ago
Using Tinnitus Phase-Out™ proprietary computer software, a licensed hearing healthcare professional analyzes the audio characteristics of the patient's tinnitus. The sound pattern is matched to the patient's specific pitch and volume level. The healthcare provider then applies the phase-shift audio technology to create a treatment program that significantly reduces, and in some cases eliminates, the patient's perception of tinnitus. This unique solution is programmed into the patient's own Patient Treatment Device.

Tinnitus is a constant, independent and spontaneous activity of the brain. Usually when you hear something, the neurons in the auditory cortex (the part of the brain concerned with hearing) fire electrical signals to stimulate other neurons in the brain. However, in tinnitus, the auditory cortex detects the signals within its own auditory circuits after they have been sent, creating an endless loop of signalling. The Tinnitus Phase-Out™ system introduces a second controlled loop capable of counteracting the tinnitus by playing the sound at the same pitch but shifting the wave in time. Imagine a pendulum being knocked out of phase by a second pendulum swinging at the same speed but shifted in time. The first pendulum would be disrupted.

Patients schedule twice-yearly evaluation visits to their licensed Phase-Out™ provider to ensure they are receiving maximum benefit from the treatment program and to determine if their tinnitus characteristics have changed. If there is a change, the therapy is adjusted.
