Abstract: An acoustic device is configured to diagnose and treat tinnitus. The device includes a wearable support in the form of a headset, a pair of acoustic emitter-receivers, a pair of electromagnetic stimulation elements, an acoustic signals generator and an electromagnetic signals generator. The acoustic emitter-receivers and the electromagnetic stimulation elements are all are placed on the wearable support. The acoustic signals generator, which generates a diagnosis acoustic signal and a treatment acoustic signal to the acoustic emitter-receivers, is arranged on or associated with the wearable support. The electromagnetic signals generator, which induces microelectric signals to the electromagnetic stimulation elements, is also arranged on or associated with the wearable support.

Abstract: A device and composition for applying an integrated therapeutic methodology for the treatment of tinnitus is provided. The methodology includes administering, according to a predetermined timing and dosage, oral and topical selected functional-regulating substances; sounds, by means of a dedicated technical device; and quantized low frequency electromagnetic waves, using the same device. The methodology preferably includes a biochemical step involving the administration of medicative drops into the ear through the external canal and gastro-resistant biphasic oral capsules, and a physical step of administering sounds and electromagnetic waves.

Abstract: A tinnitus method and device for providing relief to a person suffering from the disturbing effects of tinnitus is described. The method can be implemented entirely in software to spectrally modify an audio signal in accordance with a predetermined masking algorithm which modifies the intensity of the audio signal at selected frequencies. A predetermined masking algorithm is described which provides intermittent masking of the tinnitus wherein, at a comfortable listening level, during peaks of the audio signal the tinnitus is completely obscured, whereas during troughs the perception of the tinnitus occasionally emerges. In practice it has been found that such intermittent masking provides an immediate sense of relief, control and relaxation for the person, whilst enabling sufficient perception of the tinnitus for habituation and long term treatment to occur. Advantageously the predetermined masking algorithm is specifically tailored to the audiometric configuration of the person.
