Tinnitus (ringing in the ears) is a very common and frustrating symptom – it’s distracting, interferes with sleep, makes hearing difficult, and there’s no good treatment for it.
My good friend David Brogan, who has worked with me for years and knows quite a bit about mind/body healing, has had long term tinnitus and created a simple self-help strategy that has worked well for him. He calls it “the art of non-attention,” and was kind enough to write it up for us. Here’s his protocol.Please let me know if you try it out and how it works for you.
Another reason for hope is new research from China is reporting extremely high rates of success (80-90% improvement with over 60% complete resolution) with acupuncture and herbal medicine for tinnitus.
While we cannot completely replicate their protocols here (they do 10-18 treatments in a row on a daily basis), the studies both emphasize a selection of specific points close to the ear, and use herbal medicine as well.
