Tinnitus: The Volume Matters

It’s difficult to explain the suffering caused by tinnitus to someone who doesn’t have it. In fact, many people suffer from a mild form of the illness, in which they can hear a faint ringing in silence (indeed, the prevalence of tinnitus in total silence is much higher than in the context of ambient noise).

It’s frustrating for individuals with severe tinnitus to hear comments like, “Oh, that ringing in your ears? I sometimes get that. It’s not so bad.”

It’s critical to understand that the louder your tinnitus volume, the more you suffer. There is a difference between trying to do your job with a quiet humming in the background and trying to do a job with a fire alarm going off between your ears. There is a difference between sleeping with an annoying, faint high pitched humming and sleeping with a 100 dB noise inside your head.

That’s why I’m so passionate about AudioNotch – because, during my personal experience with tinnitus, I’ve experienced a broad spectrum in tinnitus volumes, and had to deal with sleeping, working, and carrying out all my daily activities with this illness (if you’re curious as to why – external ear infections significantly exacerbate my tinnitus). I know that a quieter tinnitus is less disruptive to a person, and if AudioNotch can help lower the volume of someone’s tinnitus, then we’ve helped that person suffer less.

This is the same reason that we have a 100% money back guarantee. Because there is no cure for tinnitus – only treatments – there is a preponderance of “therapies” that are outright scams. We got into this business to help people, and if AudioNotch doesn’t work for you, we will return your money within 30 days of purchase – no questions asked.
