Relaxation exercise

Practising relaxation can be beneficial for people with tinnitus. Here, audiologist Pete Byrom takes you through a guided relaxation exercise.

You may wish to make sure that you are somewhere where you will be undisturbed for approximately 20 minutes. This exercise can be done sitting up or lying down - whatever is comfortable for you.

It can sometimes be difficult to find something that works for you to manage your tinnitus, but relaxation is often a good place to start. These ideas do not depend on being able to hear.
Sound therapy (sound enrichment)

People who have tinnitus often notice that it is more bothersome in a quiet environment (for example at night) and that listening to other sounds can make it less intrusive.
Relaxation

We'd encourage you to look more deeply into relaxation, to take a real interest in relaxation and to understand how it can help you if you have tinnitus. Stress is often linked to tinnitus and relaxation is well known as being helpful in relieving stress.
