As with most things it promises a lot but can it deliver. yours n

Welcome to the forum soul64.

Pulsitile tinnitius can be treated if they find the cause as can be vascular.

Treatment can also be with a small betablocker or hearing aids....lots of love glynis

Acoustic Neuromodulation underwent a clinicial trial (called RESET2) at the Nottingham Hearing Biomedical Research Unit. These results were not published as there was an issue with the trial protocol. However, the BTA were able to obtain a copy of the End of Study Report via a Freedom of Information request. This Report indicates no significant difference in the main outcome measures between the treatment group and the placebo (non-treatment) group.

I wouldn't discourage you from contacting them, by any means. They do offer a range of support, not just the neuromodulation device, although obviously there is a price attached.

Thanks for the reply j.Interesting to hear that you are on that theraphy. How does it all work and what do you have to do.I'm guessing it will take a while for it to kick in, but any temporary relief from it must be good. yours n.
