Understanding and Managing Tinnitus 

While tinnitus can be a significant condition impacting millions and is often incurable, there are many ways for those suffering from it to manage its effects and reduce the impact it has on overall quality of life. It’s important to be aware of evidence-based treatments that are backed by quality, peer-reviewed scientific studies as there are many products on the market that offer no real help.

This infographic provides information about the condition and its causes, dispels common myths, and offers evidence-based strategies for managing tinnitus effectively. This visual aid is a useful educational resource for people who experience tinnitus, as well as for hearing healthcare professionals to share with their patients when discussing tinnitus and its effects. Educating people with tinnitus about this condition is crucial in helping them make informed decisions on a treatment plan.
