Tinnitus Retraining & Sound Masking Therapy
Chronic ringing, buzzing, roaring, or clicking in your ears can disrupt sleep, focus, and mental peace. Our clinical protocols combine computerized pitch matching, notch sound therapy, and neuro-habituation counseling.
Understanding & Calming Your Tinnitus
Tinnitus is not a disease by itself, but rather a neurological symptom arising from inner ear hair-cell damage, acoustic trauma, or auditory nerve hyperactivity. When external sound input is reduced, the brain overcompensates by amplifying internal neural noise.
At Turtle Maarks Hearing Health, we use evidence-based Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT) and customized sound maskers from Phonak & Signia to teach your auditory cortex to filter out phantom ringing sounds.
Our Tinnitus Management Protocol
Tinnitus Pitch & Loudness Matching
Using our clinical audiometer to identify the exact pitch frequency (e.g. 4000 Hz whistle or white noise) and decibel loudness of your tinnitus.
Minimum Masking Level (MML) Test
Determining the softest level of therapeutic sound (ocean waves, pink noise, modulated tones) needed to mask the ringing sensation.
Notch Therapy Sound Programming
Programming discreet hearing aid maskers or sound generator ear devices that suppress the exact hyperactivity frequency in the auditory pathway.
Cognitive Habituation & Sleep Support
Guiding you through sleep soundscapes and habituation techniques to rewire brain response and eliminate tinnitus-related anxiety.
Symptoms We Successfully Treat
High-Pitched Ringing
Constant whistle or tea-kettle tone commonly associated with sensorineural high-frequency hearing loss.
Ocean Roaring & Static
Low-frequency rushing sound frequently seen in Meniere's disease or middle-ear pressure imbalances.
Pulsatile Tinnitus
Rhythmic whooshing sound that beats in time with your pulse or heartbeat.
Bedtime Sleep Disruption
Ringing becoming overwhelmingly loud when trying to fall asleep in a silent bedroom.
