Tinnitus is the perception of sound when no external sound is present. It’s often described as a ringing, buzzing, or hissing sound in the ears, and it can range from a mild inconvenience to a significant disruption in daily life. Whether it’s temporary or persistent, tinnitus affects many people of all ages.
In fact, around 15% of the global population—about 1 in 8 people—experience some form of tinnitus, with approximately 20% of those reporting it as a severe, chronic issue that affects their quality of life.
At Harmonic Hearing, we understand how tinnitus can impact your quality of life. While there’s no single cure for tinnitus, there are ways to manage its effects and reduce how much it interferes with daily activities. Our experienced audiologists are here to help guide you through different management options to find what works best for you.
Tinnitus is often associated with hearing loss. Studies show that up to 90% of people with tinnitus also have some degree of hearing loss. If hearing loss is present, we may recommend hearing aids to not only improve your hearing but also help manage the effects of tinnitus.
Our team provides compassionate care and will take the time to understand your unique experience with tinnitus. Together, we’ll find solutions that can help manage your symptoms and improve your overall well-being.
