Gentle Natural Treatments For Tinnitus Relief

If you suffer from tinnitus, the pain and constant ringing noise in your ears can be maddening.

There is currently no prescription remedy for tinnitus, but there are many things you can do at home to relieve the symptoms and help you find peace with a bit of silence.

Any type of prolonged or sudden exposure to loud noises or vibrations can cause the small hair-like nerves in your ears to be over-stimulated, producing a disturbing noise inside the ear. Having something buzzing in your ear, or making roaring or hissing noises leaves little attention for everyday activates, which only worsens the sensitivity to this condition.

The clients in my office who are suffering from tinnitus are usually veterans with PTSD. Many of them have been involved in a loud explosion and are also experiencing traumatic memories and emotions that are attached to the incident. When I “tune in” to their inner ear, it is like someone has rung a giant gong, only there is no way to stop the vibrations and noise. While I do have certain energy healing techniques that can reduce the symptoms, the tinnitus often returns a few days after.

With consistent home care, however, the symptoms of tinnitus can improve with time. A combination of physical treatments along with emotional support can help reduce the constant ringing and discomfort caused by tinnitus. Also, protecting your ears from over-exposure to loud music, machinery and other powerful noises by wearing ear protection is a great way to prevent further damage to your delicate ears.

Nutritional Support

The first step to helping your body heal is to give it the proper nutrients. Supplements can provide the building blocks for repairing damage to the nerves of the ear and healing tissues. Be consistent and patient while allowing your body to relieve tinnitus naturally.

* Zinc – 50 mg daily to improve circulation and reduce irritation

* Vitamin B Complex – 50 mg of each major B vitamin daily to repair and heal nerves

* Coenzyme Q10 – 500 mg daily helps blood circulation in the ears

* Ginkgo Biloba – increases blood flow to the ears and improves dizziness

Natural Remedies

Consider some alternative treatments to heal the damage of tinnitus. A combination of different therapies may just be the key to relieving tinnitus symptoms for good, and keep them from recurring. Plus, a visit to a therapist’s office is healing on so many levels, but you must seek professional help right away for best possible results.

* Neti pot – use as directed to clear buildup and allow proper inner ear drainage

* Acupuncture – can reduce pain and help nerves in ears relax

* Hypnotherapy – effective for reducing held trauma related to tinnitus, such as an accident
