Tinnitus is increasingly prevalent, affecting 1 in 10 people on the planet. For many sufferers, it can be chronic and severely debilitating. There is an undeniable link between tinnitus and mental health issues, such as anxiety and depression. With no known cure, there is an urgent need to develop effective solutions for tinnitus relief. Custom hearing aids can be expensive and undesirable to wear. Most other solutions are either invasive or impractical for 24/7 use. And sadly, there are all too many "miracle pills" on the market, making false promises. Here at TinniSoothe, we are on an ambitious mission to provide 24/7 tinnitus relief. Our patented product is certified as a Class 1 medical device and is manufactured here in the UK. As the worlds first wearable white noise device without the need for anything in the ears, TinniSoothe frees up tinnitus sufferers to go about their daily lives and eventually habituate to the condition. There is no cure for tinnitus. But there is hope.
