About Tinnitus and Its Impact
It is true that currently, there is no cure for tinnitus, but that doesn’t mean tinnitus treatment can’t make a massive difference to the quality of your daily life.
At Regain Hearing clinics, our expert team of private audiologists take tinnitus symptoms and find the most effective tinnitus treatment for each patient extremely seriously.
We know first-hand how debilitating the condition can be and deal with every challenge head-on, devoting our efforts to combating your unique tinnitus symptoms, however mild, moderate or severe.
For us, nothing beats positively impacting tinnitus and helping you regain peace and quiet.
What is tinnitus?
Tinnitus is often described as “ringing in the ears,” but the sound itself might also resemble a “humming,” “roaring,” “hissing,” or “whooshing,” among others.
These sounds have no external source and are perceived only by the individual, either in both ears, in one ear, or sometimes inside their head.
Every person with tinnitus symptoms experiences it differently; some may hear noise continuously, while for others, it might come and go.
Some may hear it softly in the background, constantly, or in quiet environments, while severe tinnitus symptoms will cause noise that can be noticeable, even over significant noise.
Impact
Tinnitus is a common condition, with the most recent research suggesting that one in seven adults experience it at some point.
Those experiencing symptoms of tinnitus for six months or more are said to suffer from “chronic” tinnitus — with 1–3% of sufferers in that category impacted by symptoms of anxiety and, or depression that significantly affect their quality of life.

Personalised treatment explanation
Every tinnitus treatment programme at Regain Hearing is a bespoke, adaptable treatment strategy.
Our tinnitus treatment incorporates several strategies, including sound therapy and cutting-edge apps.
We may also recommend a hearing aid for tinnitus that can mask the sound with white noise.
Each element focuses on particular tinnitus symptoms and is individualised to the patient’s specific requirements.
How it works
The first priority is identifying the specific frequencies, tones and sounds your tinnitus produces.
That’s because sound therapy is only successful when it teaches your brain to recategorise or neutralise sounds — to the extent that you cannot hear tinnitus anymore.
We follow an in-depth audiological examination and testing process that helps us map out what tinnitus sounds like to you.
What Our Patients Say
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What makes Regain Hearing’s tinnitus treatment different from what is available at other audiologists and hearing aid providers?
Treatment for tinnitus is often earwax removal or hearing aids. While both treatments can help tinnitus symptoms, they are not treatments for chronic tinnitus unless hearing aids are provided as part of a comprehensive tinnitus masking treatment. This is one of the key treatments for tinnitus, which is not offered as part of a standard hearing test and hearing aid fitting. It’s important to understand that hearing aids are not considered treatment on their own, as they may only help relieve symptoms if you are diagnosed with hearing loss.
2. What’s included in the tinnitus treatment plan that Regain Hearing offers?
At Regain Hearing, we will provide you with a tinnitus diagnosis that includes an in-depth consultation with a qualified and experienced audiologist using the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI). You will also receive tests to ensure a customised treatment plan can be devised for the exact pitch and frequency of the tinnitus sounds you are currently experiencing.
The treatment plan involves various components and may also include tinnitus retraining with sound therapy. This is bespoke for each person and tailored to their tinnitus symptoms.
